Fenced yard + happy dog!

Pet care experience

Hi! I am a long time dog owner who will love your dog as if he or she is my own. I’ve had multiple dogs of my own and currently have a 3 year old golden retriever named Poppy who is very friendly and loves new friends (and honestly, prefers having dog friend company over just hanging with me 😅). Poppy and I are very active and would mix it up for your fur baby - I.e we go on gentle walks or a more energized runs, explore off leash hikes, go to the beach every weekend, spend time socializing at the park, and so much more. Of course, with each outing like a beach day or hike, I’ll rinse or bathe your pup should he or she need it. I have a very large fenced backyard for your pup too with lots of areas with shade, nooks and cranny’s to explore, and sunbathing sweet grass areas. I’ll send you a lot of updates and photos of your pup! I love taking photos.

Michelle is a fantastic dog sitter and fit our finicky dog perfectly! She is great at sending cute photo updates and letting us know about our dog's status while we were away. She is committed to providing excellent care. We were treated to cute videos of our happy dog romping around the Google Campus on the weekend. Additionally, Michelle is very flexible. When our arrival back home ended up very late, she was happy to keep our dog overnight and reschedule pickup early the next day. I personally will be looking to Michelle for my dog sitting needs from now on!

Michelle is amazing! She offered a play date to have our dog , Tony, meet her sweetest dog Poppy which was a huge success. Made us feel very comfortable to have Tony board with her. While Tony stayed with Michelle and Poppy, she sent wonderful updates, photos, and videos! You can really tell how much Michelle loves animals and she will definitely care for your dog as if they are one of her own.

Michele was wonderful! She came through in a pinch and booked an overnight for my dog in record time. Her communication is excellent and she gave multiple updates with pictures and I could see my dog was happy and well cared for, and enjoyed playing in her spacious backyard with her hilarious and friendly pup. I will definitely use her again and she is right in my neighborhood so very convenient, too

A typical day

We will always walk / run in the morning. Then midday, we go on short walks (love a good walk and talk meeting). Or the pups can hang out in the front or backyard and sunbathe while they people watch. I try to go surfing every other day so the pups would come with me and get beach time. And then we take a stroll to all the local spots that give out dog treats ? On evenings that I don’t surf, we go on cooler evening walks and head to off leash open dog parks (Cuesta, RWC off leash hike/walk that I can never remember the name of). Or we simply love going to local dog parks like rengstorff or the agility dog park in RWC. A trip to Stanford mall and getting a pup cup from pressed juicery is always fun too!

I work from remote from my home which means your fur ball will get a lot of attention. Poppy and I stay very active and love getting out and about for exercise and social activities!
