Pet care experience

walks, tail wags, and happy hikes

Hi there! I’m an experienced and passionate dog lover who has been caring for pups in my home for over 5 years. Whether it’s a tiny Chihuahua or a large, high-energy Shepherd, I have experience with all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs—including administering medications with care and confidence. Your dog will be treated like one of the family here. I’m very active and love to include dogs in my daily routine, which usually involves two walks a day, playtime in the yard, or even a hike if your pup is up for it! I know how important it is to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged, and I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, loved, and safe while you’re away. Whether you’re heading out for the weekend or an extended trip, you can trust that your dog will be in a warm, attentive, and fun environment where their individual needs come first. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. Let’s set up a meet and greet—I’d love to get to know you and your furry friend!

Our first experience boarding our pup so uncertain what to expect. Turned out really well. We received enough pictures to ease our concerns. Highly recommend

Michelle is amazing. My dogs had so much fun staying with her while we were gone for about a week. She did a great job making sure they had fun while we were gone. I will definitely use Michelle again!

Michelle was great! She set up a meet and greet beforehand to make our dog feel comfortable before she stayed with her. She then took her for daily hikes and sent lots of pictures. Our dog enjoyed it and we would definitely book with her again.

Michelle was wonderful! She kept me informed about Moose with pictures and updates, and he came home tired and happy - just the way I like him!

Michelle was great! When my sitter canceled last minute she was able to take copper. She sent daily updates on my pup she took her hiking and copper got to play all day long with her dog! Copper was happy and well taken care of! Would definitely recommend!
