Pet care experience
I’ve been out of the country for the past 3 years and am so happy to be back in MI to meet y’all! 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!
Reviews
Michelle did a great job of watching over our two golden retrievers (age 4 months and 5 years) while we were on vacation. She followed our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond in caring for our pets and our home. Michelle is a great communicator and sent us updates on a regular basis. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter and would not hesitate to hire her again.
Michelle was fabulous! Not only did she take outstanding care of Myka, but she also had to deal with a boil water advisory for four days and she took it all in stride. She was also very communicative, sending pictures and updates a few times a day. And when I got home my house looked better than the way I left it. Michelle is absolutely amazing and I will be asking her to stay with Myka again.
Once again Michelle blows us away. We love having her so much and our boys feel so safe and comfortable with her. It’s so important that our senior dog stays at home when we’re gone and has a low stress environment, and Michelle always provides that for him. Thank you again Michelle <3
Always happy to leave our dog and house with Michelle.

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!
Home
Information Michelle H. would like to know about your pet
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.
A typical day
I can take dogs on walks through neighborhoods and parks. I love to run, play, hike, camp, or even canoe with them (Assuming you're ok with that, or course!) I always ask what their favorite activity is and make sure that’s the kind of play they get the most! If you’re comfortable with me taking them to a dog park I’ll happily take them every day!

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.
