About Michelle L.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm trained in using several types of leads, positive reinforcement, building trust, and treating every dog like one of my own. My goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible leaving your dog in my care.
Information Michelle L. would like to know about your pet
I require a meet & greet before watching and handling your fur baby. It's important for both me and your dog to get to know and trust each other. And please don't be afraid to tell me what they don't like or have bad history with, the more I know upfront, the better care I can provide for them!
A typical day
I will tailor my time with your pup's personal needs. I've got a high energy dog of my own so there is no dog that'll be too much for me. I'm willing to teach them games, go for walks, or do some basic training. I'm happy to discuss what you'd want out of dogs stay with me.

Pet care experience
I’ve loved dogs ever since I was seven years old and have cared for them at every stage of life—from playful puppies to adopted rescues. Training and spending time with dogs is something I truly enjoy, and I hope to become a trainer one day. Right now, I’m a proud dog mom and also volunteer as a dog walker at my local shelter, where I get to work with pups of all sizes and personalities.
Reviews
Best dog walker I’ve ever had!
Daisy trusted Michelle the moment she met her and is so happy when she drops in for her visits. She is very attentive to her needs, responds quickly to my messages and is flexible with me. She has a very calming demeanor to her which is exactly what my anxious Daisy needs. Highly recommend!
Michelle treated my dog so nicely, first let her sniff the back of the hand and then promptly asked if there was anything she needed to know before taking her out, ant specific treats that should be used on the walks, any specific practice that I'd like done on the walk. After explaining what i was expecting very happy with the result, they walked along the park near my house and I spied because im a worried dog mom, but I couldn't have been more overjoyed. She kept her walking and moving and a heal. They did some stop and sits for practice and she kept her distance from other dogs who were passing by. 🐕 10000/10 would use her again.
Michelle was incredible with my dog, who can be a little anxious around new people. She took the time to build trust, and by the second day I was getting photos of my pup happily cuddled up and playing. When some leash reactivity came up on walks, Michelle handled it calmly and confidently, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear they really understand dog behavior and treat every situation with care. I came home to a relaxed, happy dog and that says it all.
