Pet care experience
I've loved animals since I was a young child, and have had pets all of my life. As soon as I was old enough to walk down my street by myself, I was petsitting for my neighbors. In 2011, I started working in animal welfare and quickly opened up my home to foster pets. My boyfriend and I have fostered more cats & kittens than we can count, and several dogs with special medical and/or behavioral needs. We currently have one rescue dog and three rescue cats. My heart dog, who passed away in September 2022, helped me learn a TON about behavior modification training, different types of medicine administration, and how to care for special-needs pups. I am well-versed in separation anxiety, fear aggression, reactivity, and resource guarding, and I'm comfortable taking care of pets who are leery of strangers at first.
Reviews
Michelle is reliable, communicative, and wonderfully sweet to my pup. Michelle is patient with my dog's reactivity and gives me great reports on how she did on walks. Eddie gives Michelle 10/10, will play again!
Our pug Pearl had a great time with Ellie and her family. We loved getting videos and pictures everyday!
Michelle was fantastic. Not only did she save us last minute over the holidays, she was very helpful and accommodating with the meet and greet before hand. Our dogs did great with her dog and cats and I've never seen our old girl so happy at a sitters. The only down side is our pups are moping around because they miss their friends.
Michelle is so great at communicating what's going on. I really feel at ease knowing my babies are in Michelle's care. Thank you for taking so many pictures too!

Information Michelle M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special preferences or needs. We're happy to accommodate dogs with allergies, sensitivities, or special training requirements!
A typical day
We have an incredibly dog-friendly neighborhood with more interesting smells than your pup will know what to do with! We like to go on at least one walk a day, and if the neighborhood smells become too boring, we are a short drive away from several parks. We like to let our guests set the pace, but we are happy to accommodate all energy levels.

I work in Centerville and live in Kettering, so I can make pet care stops in a multitude of places. My boyfriend works from home, so in-house boarders will have company all day!
