Pet care experience
I have been obsessed with dogs all my life and love them so much, big, small, giant, doesn't matter I love them all! My home is situated out in the country, we do not have a fenced yard but we have acres and acres of space for your fur baby to run full speed as we play and burn off some energy, or if they prefer, just root around and dig holes (supervised for their safety of course). We have some agility equipment as well and I enjoy teaching dogs how to play with it. My husband and I love our Portuguese Water Dog "Auggie" and take him everywhere. Auggie is just under a year old and LOVES playing with other dogs, especially young active dogs, however he also respects his elders and knows when to back off. He is a show dog who requires lots of grooming. If you are interested in having your pup bathed and blow dried when you pick up, I am equipped for that as well. Our Auggie is SUPER spoiled and I would spoil your doggo too. I work from home and will be with your dog for most or all of his or her time with me. I have experience with puppies to elderly dogs, big and small. I have excellent communication skills and LOVE being active with my family. I live on a farm so there is plenty of room for dogs to run and play. I am used to having multiple dogs at any given time and love having a full house but know that some dogs prefer more one on one. It's important to me that everyone has a POSITIVE experience during their time with us, so I make sure of that.
Reviews
Michelle is an extremely qualified dog caretaker. She has watched my dog during vacations, and my dog always enjoys her time with Michelle. Michelle will take the time to make sure your dog has an enriching experience. She will even go above and beyond by working on any relevant training with your pet to keep training consistent! Further, our dog has some reactivity issues, and Michelle has been nothing but patient in helping us address the issues.
I definitely recommend this place to any owner looking for a safe, fun, and engaging place to keep their dog while they are away. I trust Michelle 100% with watching my dog, Junie. She has watched Junie several times, ranging from just a day to a whole weekend. She is exceptionally attuned to Junie's specific needs, and pays great attention to detail in her care for her dogs and those she is watching. Her own dog has wonderful social skills - he is very sweet and listens well! Even with another dog in the home, her house is very accommodating in case your dog needs more time alone or separation from other dogs. The sitter's property is full of fun and safe opportunities for both physical and mental stimulation. My dog does well off leash in the yard area by the house, and Michelle also takes her on leashed walks around the property. I know that she is great with dogs that can only be on-leash too, as she has been with her puppy! My dog does not always do great with other dogs or people, and I am lucky to have someone I can trust wholeheartedly to take care of her while I am away!

Information Michelle H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if they are “free to run” on our large acreage property or if they need to be on a leash for potty breaks and outdoor playtime. Also, I need to know gender, whether they are neutered or spayed and temperament description (or how they do with other dogs) please. Our home is large enough that our dog can be kept separate from yours if that is needed.
A typical day
Care can be customized based on needs of your dog. Walks on leash or off leash play. With or without our dog. (We have a large home so they can be kept separate if needed.) We have 10 acres surrounded by lots of undeveloped farm land. (It's approximately 1/2 mile to the nearest road in either direction.)
