Dog lover with years of experience!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Michelle and besides being a dog owner (my buddy is a friendly little Cairn Terrier), I also have experience walking and dog sitting. Your dog will have fun with my little dog who just loves to hang out with other dogs and will have plenty of space to nap and relax! I'm based in Oakland and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. If your dog is up for it, Hazel and I go on weekly hikes! Just tell me your dog's quirks and I'll take care of the rest! Why I love dog sitting I've had a dog since I was 16 - there's nothing like the warm feeling of having so much love and energy in the house! Hazel my terrier loves to play with other dogs. We love to have visiting dogs with plenty of space to run around and play together and dog sitting gives us the opportunity for that! My experience administering medication Yes, as long as I am shown beforehand how to best administer.

Michelle is so dependable and responsible. My dog is a little nervous being away from us, but she is great helping him settle in. He loves playing with her dog and I know he is always well cared for and safe. She is responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off and sends pictures while he's staying with her. She is super nice! Thank you !

Information Michelle K. would like to know about your pet

I want to get to know a dog's personality- is he a napper, a runner, or a lapdog? What can I do to make them the happiest while their owner is away? I'd like to know their breed, any food restrictions, any bad habits they have, and their favorite activities.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog When I dog sit I work from home and am home all day. My partner who also loves dogs works from home. Your dog will have plenty of supervision and cuddle time. If your pup is up for it we'll go on long morning and afternoon walks. My dog Hazel LOVES to play and she'd love to have a buddy. If your dog is more of a couch potato they're welcome to sleep and rest on the couch or sunbathe on a dog bed. Extra house-sitting services - let me know and we can discuss!
