Pet care experience

Please read! I have consistently been dog sitting since 2020 with many repeat clients that relied on me to take care of their pets and homes for extended periods of time. I have my own dog. Zena, she is a 2 year old English setter. For any bookings she will need to come with me. During a meet and greet I would like our pets to meet to make sure it is a good fit for everyone involved. If you know for sure that another pet in the home won't be ideal I unfortunately will not be the right person. I work remote which allows me to be in the home with your pet for long periods of time. If potty breaks are needed mid day I can do it. If you have any questions feel free to send a message. To set up a meet and greet please book a 30 minute drop in visit. (I will reduce the cost to $10) Drop-ins/walks availability Friday Saturday Sunday anytime Monday through Thursday available only from 7am to noon or after 6pm

We loved having Michelle take of our home and pets. We’d recommend her and hope to hire her again!

Michelle did a wonderful job with our golden! We will definitely be using her again anytime we need someone to hang with him.

Michelle was very professional and courteous. Our 3-year-old husky mix loved spending time with her. Would not hesitate to hire her again.
