Pet care experience

Active human seeking fun pups

I genuinely believe that dogs aren't just pets - they're a part of the family. So I don't just walk dogs.. I play with them, run with them, hike with them, heck.. I even go camping with them! Just like any other member of the family, they're always welcome to sit on my furniture, ride in my car, and sleep in my bed (unless you prefer otherwise, of course!) The safety and well-being of your dog is my #1 concern, so I make it a priority to keep you engaged and updated via texts and pictures throughout their stay. I'm definitely no stranger to dogs... I've worked with dogs of just about every size, age, condition, and activity level and look forward to meeting yours!

Safety, trust & environment

They always have my full attention as I only will take pups from one household at a time. I don’t have any pets of my own so they will not need to have any added stress. I love being outside so they’ll receive a lot of walks and runs with me! I love to cuddle up on the couch with them too if that’s more their speed. I always love talking with you beforehand to get to know your pets specific needs and levels of energy so I can make their stay the best!

Michelle took great care of our two golden retrievers while we were away. It was quite a week...severe thunderstorm warning. tornado warning, power outage, sick pup, changes in travel plans.... and yet she handled everything beautifully. Michelle is a great communicator and followed our instructions perfectly. She is a favorite and I hope we can work together again soon.

Always love having Michelle take care of our pup! We know we don't have to worry whatsoever when we're away.

Would highly recommend! Felt great leaving our dog in Michelle’s hands. She was very responsive and had everything handled while we were away. Our pup was stress free and happy to have her. Really impressed with the service!

Michelle took great care of our two golden retrievers while we were out of town. Our senior pup has some special needs; Michelle followed our guidelines perfectly and he was happy and healthy when we returned. Michelle sent daily updates and left our house neat and tidy. We look forward to working with Michelle again in the future!

I have the privilege of working from home Monday to Friday so your pet will never be alone. I am able to cuddle them all day, let them out when needed, and take them on a walk during my lunch break for an hour.

I love all dogs, and welcome dogs of any size, age, condition, and activity level. I like to know your dog's sensitivities, health conditions, and any past behavioral issues, if possible.
