Full Time Dog Enthusiast

Pet care experience

I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, so getting to be a dog sitter really is a dream come true for me! There’s just nothing better than getting to provide the love and care that a dog needs to thrive. I love giving back to dogs, but I also like helping owners out as well. I know how difficult it can be to find care for your pup while you’re away, so I’m here to fill that role! I have a long history of working with animals. I grew up with them in my family, and we always enjoyed raising them. I have lots of experience as a sitter, boarder, and walker. I’ve done everything from favors for friends and family to professional services. I’m able to administer medicine and take care of elderly dogs without problem. I currently have two dogs of my own (A Chihuahua and a Puggle) and a cat. I have a chihuahua, a puggle and a cat. I also have a 3 year old daughter who is on school from 8 am to 3 pm on weekdays. Everyone gets along very well. One of the best things about me is that I am home all day, so I’m a great fit for pups that are used to having a human presence around them during the day. My only other commitment is to my 3-year-old daughter, who is at school weekdays from 8am to 3pm. Your pup will have my undivided attention when they’re with me! My neighborhood is called Canary Palm Club. It's is a community made up of 56 townhomes, and is very dog friendly. I know all the owners and their pets! It's a great place to live and for a dog to hang out. We’ll definitely meet some new friends along the way when we’re out and about.

As you know Michelle it was our first time leaving Daisy alone for a few hours and we could tell by the pictures you sent that she was very comfortable with you and not stressed at all. Thank you again.

Michelle was amazing! She took care of my old diabetic dog and my cat. She kept the house clean and made sure that everything was perfect with my animals, and even gave the insulin that my dog needs to take. She sent me pictures of them everyday and made me feel close. I felt relax that my animals were in good hands. I am really happy that I chose her and will definitely book again!

Information Michelle D. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I know that a healthy dog is a happy dog, so getting lots of exercise is a top priority for me. Your pooch will be walked no less than 4 times a day every day, so we’ll have lots of opportunities to get out and have fun outdoors. When we’re not exercising, I’ll make sure that your pup is just right alongside me. Every pup is free to hang out with me and play to their heart’s content! I’m also happy to meet pups at their energy level as well, whether that means high-energy playtime or just being lazy and cozy on the couch together. Every pup is welcome!
