THE Godmother of my friend's pets

Pet care experience

The cool aunt your dog deserves. I will hang out with your dog and make sure they stay active and happy. I am energetic for the dogs who need plenty of exercise but who knows how to cuddle or be lay back with the calmest dogs. All my friends and family dogs are basically my nieces and nephews from how much I spoil them and spend time around them (plenty of cuddle buddies are around me when I come over). Even though I enjoy being the cool aunt or Godmom, I will discipline them if they are doing something they know they are not supposed to do (this is not like when the teacher leaves and the substitute teacher is there for the day). If I'm lucky my terrible puns and jokes might put your dog to sleep after hearing them (not guaranteed to work on all dogs).

Michelle’s profile is mostly about her love of and gift with dogs, but let me tell you she is a cat person/lover of all animals for sure! She stayed at our place for two weeks while we were out of the country for a wedding and we were SO comforted to know that our senior cat Alfie was in good hands. Michelle took copious notes about his care, was mindful of making sure he was eating right and taking his medication, and loved on him so good! She sent pictures and updates - and it was clear that Alfie took a liking to snuggling with her and sleeping with her. She seemed to really enjoy him as well, and it always feels good to know that your fur baby is in caring hands. She was communicative and reliable (and funny!), and our home was in good shape upon our return. I would wholeheartedly recommend Michelle and hope to work with her again!

Wonderful! I had two stubborn doggos and she took care of them. We came back and the dogs were in heaven, looked like they had a great time. Very good communicator as well, she sent lots of pictures ?

Michelle was great with our dog over a long weekend, especially on short notice! She was very attentive & responsive. We felt comfortable with her watching Stevie in our home & she treated it with respect & care. We’ll be reaching out again when we need a sitter!

I want to know if they have any specific needs or conditions. I would like to know what kind of dog they (aggressive around others, shy around other dogs, not good with kids etc).

A typical day

I live right near the beach where your little one can go running around. And I know paths where there are plenty of smells and new sights.
