Pet care experience

Welcome to my Home!

Welcome! I have had cats and dogs my whole life and would love to welcome your pet into my home! At home is my 1 1/2 year old Portuguese Water Dog, Pippa, and my 8 year old rescue cat, Lasalle. My sister is a board certified veterinarian and I have experience administering medications. I live an active lifestyle with 3 walks a day and trying to socialize. Anywhere I go is where all the animals go!

Michelle was the best! She provided excellent care for our cat Buddy while we were away. At the first meet-up, he warmed up to her, and her daily updates were very thorough with plenty of great pics. She was trustworthy, flexible, and fast to communicate. We are grateful she is nearby and will be booking her again.

Michelle takes excellent care of our two dogs. We have fairly detailed instructions and she follows them to a tee! I feel confident leaving her in charge of our pets while traveling abroad. Thank you, Michelle!

Michelle took wonderful care of my cat, Rocco! Her daily reports and pictures help me to rest assured that my kitty was being well taken care of and loved while I was away! I highly recommend Michelle to care for your pets.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Your pet fits right in! I wake up early to be sure to get a log walk or run in the morning and then again in the evening. I work about 10 mins away so I come home over lunch another walk and playing in the yard. I do work full time outside of the home but my schedule is flexible around bathroom breaks or any medications needed at a specific time.

Safety, trust & environment

I own my home and have a completely fenced back yard. I live in a residential area on a quiet street near a park that is good for tossing the tennis ball and taking daily walks.

Pets

A typical day

I try and include the dogs in everything! I usually take them on 3 walks a day with a long walk in the morning, a shorter one around 5pm, and then a longer evening walk before bed. Sometimes on the walks we head to a mostly-fenced field and throw the chuck-it to let out some energy. Also, my pup and I like to run 4-5 miles together most mornings so if your pup likes to run, they will fit right in!

Please let me know any special routines or diets or medication that your pet needs. My 1/12 year old friendly pup is part of everything and loves to play with all friendly pets. I try and be very flexible so if you have a change of plans or a specific requirement for your pet please just let me know and I’m happy to try and accommodate.
