Pet care experience

First responder to belly rubs🐶🐈‍⬛

I grew up with a Shar Pei, a Weimaraner, a Pug, a French Bulldog, and I currently have a American Bully/Dachshund mix. As a kid, I would also play with and care for the animals in my neighborhood. I am skilled with dogs ranging in size from 2-160 pounds. I used to volunteer my Sundays with Much Love Animal Rescue at their Santa Monica and Century City locations. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and the bond between humans and dogs is something to cherish. If your dog wants tug-o-war, fetch, belly rubs, or a companion to be with, then look no further: I am a dog lover from the beginning to the end of the doggie spectrum!

Michelle was great with Bentley! She was flexible, communicative, and clearly cared about him. He was so good after his walks. It’s clear she takes the time to build trust with Bentley and he did great with her. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker!

Michelle is the best!! She gave my dog Clark multiple walks a day and Clark loves her so much! She’s reliable, easy to communicate with and always shows Clark so much love. Highly recommend.

I've known Michelle for many years. She is thoughtful, responsible young woman and true dog lover. Whether your dog needs a walk, a feeding or just some company, your four-legged friend will be very lucky to be cared for by Michelle.

Please let me know if there are certain allergy or health restrictions so I can make sure they are safe. In addition, I want to know about their comfort around other dogs and what commands they are familiar with to ensure their safety while on a walk.
