Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover who works from home!
I have two dogs that I have raised and trained since they were puppies. I love going on long walks/hikes and am used to strong dogs. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule and can provide extra cuddles/support as needed - and I have a large fenced yard for playtime! The home is myself and my husband (who also works from home) and our two dogs. To see more photos of Birdie and Bear (my dogs), check out their Instagram Griffs_BirdieandBear

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Michelle is wonderful with Morgan — reliable, and caring for her visits.
Thank you Michelle for helping us out last minute. Maddie and Champ love to see you.
My dogs love Michele. She also has a flexible schedule.
Michelle, Bear, and Birdie are beyond amazing! Our boy Merle was happily accepted into their pack and was cared for like their own pup. We received daily photos and had one tuckered out pup by the end of the day. Couldn’t recommend enough for anyone in Calistoga or surrounding area! Thank you again!
Michelle was great with communication and really easy to work with. Will definitely use her again.
very responsive and my dog liked her! 😃

Schedule
I work from home pretty standard business hours (Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm) but can take breaks during the day as needed. I live in Calistoga and am usually pretty open on the weekends. I walk multiple times a day and am happy to walk more!
