Safety, trust & environment

Thanks to my experience with reactive dogs, I am highly sensitive to a dog's discomfort signals. I also study dog training methods both on my own and with professionals. I opt for fear-free training methods and let your pup communicate limits.

Information Michelle F. would like to know about your pet

I'm less used to small dogs, so I'm always afraid I will accidentally step on them. But I look forward to keeping whatever variety of fur baby happy and safe until they can hug you again. I'm not afraid to help with medical needs either.

A typical day

I know how important a thorough sniff adventure is for dogs. As my dog trainer says, "It's their walk". Learning how each dog likes to play is a joy for me. I enjoy giving treats via enrichment activities like wrapping in a towel and making them hunt for it. If they love cuddles, they will get them! If you have a specific regimen, I do my best to support it.

Felines, Canines, I love 'em all

Pet care experience

I share care for a 4-year-old male pitbull. He's a love of my life, right up there with the two cats who live with me full-time. He knows that when his dad goes out of town, I keep him safe and entertained. I want your pets to know that same sense of safety while they are with me.
