Dogs Are People Too
Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was a child. There is always room in our hearts and home to foster an abandoned animal, or babysit a loved family member. I believe in calm assertive training, coupled with a lot of love, and dedicated time for a dog to "be a dog" too. At the bar/party/park I'm the one you will see with the dogs instead of the people :) I'm available anytime, just let me know what works for you! Right now my schedule is open both weekdays or weekends for dog sitting and dog walking. I love to take walks down the block or stroll through a nearby park, and (when approved by parents) my puppy pals love it when I load them into the car for a drive to a local dog park.

Absolutely excellent. I have a Mini Dachshund that is pretty temperamental towards people, but she loved Michelle. I’ve never seen her warm up to someone so quick. Michelle was really patient with my babies and gave them tons of scratches and pets. She’s awesome. You won’t regret picking her.
Michelle was great! She was able to watch my eyes on short notice at Christmas! I so thankful. She absolutely wonderful with animals ♥️
Michelle did wonderful with taking care of my 2 year old dog, Toronto. He is a rescue and doesn’t get along with all male dogs and has never liked cats. Thankfully, he got along with Michelle’s dog Jasper and she even got him used to the cats where he could sit on the couch with one of them. This goes to show that Michelle really works to understand your dog’s personality and needs. She treated him like a part of the family, kept in touch and there was nothing to worry about during the multiple times she took care of him!
Michelle is super sweet! Extremely easy to work with as she was extra willing to be flexible with our crazy schedule. Her past experiences with and knowledge of dog and their behaviors was comforting as one of ours has a fear aggression with new dogs. She had an instant rapport with our two furry kids and they seemed to accept her right into our pack. We will definitely be contacting Michelle again and look forward to picking her brain about dealing with behaviors in our dog we would like to train out. (She might have to start charging a pet-OWNER training fee!)

Information Michelle D. would like to know about your pet
I adore all breeds, large and small alike. But there is a special fondness in my heart for dogs who have been labeled as “difficult” or “high maintence”... those pups deserve even more love, which I dole it out in large quantities :) because there is no such thing as a bad dog.
A typical day
Fetch, cuddles, walks, bedtime stories, belly rubs, toy time, lots and lots of love.
