Pet care experience

Love to take walks; home full time.

My husband and I are both dog lovers. We had a Miniature Schnauzer for 14 years who had diabetes the last 2-1/2 years of her life. My husband gave her two shots a day, and I cooked chicken, brown rice, and sweet potatoes for her everyday to ensure she would eat. We now have a 22 month old Miniature Schnauzer who was perfectly house-trained at 5 months old because we walked her every 30 minutes when she was a puppy. We take her with us everywhere we go, unless the weather is too hot. One of our goals is to adopt an elderly German Shepherd who has no other options and just needs to be taken care of and loved. I am an experience, professional dog walker, having been employed as such for the past two years.

I met Michelle before she started watching my girls and I was sure we would get along. She loves animals and it shows immediately. She was great at letting me know how the cats were doing every visit and I loved the pics. Jill is a bit more shy but when she finally came out to meet who was feeding her it was all over for me. Jillie talking to me on a video sold me on Michele forever. I’ll be using her again. Thank you so much

Michelle did a lovely job with my 1-year old dog. From the pictures, Fern looked like she had a blast on the walk.

Michelle was fantastic! She spent a ton of time with our pet, sent detailed reports, and was always there on time. She was a great photographer, too!

Did a great job with my pups! They were happy and didn’t make any mess in the house.
