Dog and Animal Lover!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Michelle and I am a Bay Area native originally from Marin. Growing up in an animal loving household I have become a huge animal lover and have experience in caring for small to medium sized dogs as well as small exotics like rabbits, birds, rats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I love each and every dog and creature as if they were my own and give individualized attention to each furry pal so that my home feels like their home. There's no shortage of belly rubs, cuddles, and praise! I enjoy engaging and interacting with the many different and unique doggy personalities and work to form a unique and special bond with each and every one. Since I am employed full time I’m only available for weekend visits and dog walks. Have an animal other than a dog? I can also check in on your guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, mice, and more!
Reviews
Michelle is great. Professional, accommodating, and truly a dog lover. I don't have to fear leaving Tanna since Michelle had us meet and greet prior to doggie daycare. I know her sweet dogs and got to learn about her doggie scarf business. She loves dogs and would be a good person to watch your doggie when you can't.
Michelle was very sweet with my dog Ollie, who was nervous to go to daycare for the first time. She was patient and understand even when he marked indoors. He also had a fun time playing with her two dogs Sherlock and Watson!
MIchelle took excellent care of my dog! She provided me updates to let me know how she is doing
Our dog stayed with Michelle for a week and did great! Michelle sent lots of pictures and communicated well with us!

Safety, trust & environment
When I come to your home you can rest assured that your dog won’t be left outside alone. This is something that’s very important for me and my dogs, so you can expect the same.
Information Michelle O. would like to know about your pet
Because I currently have 2 small terrier mixes at home I prefer smaller to medium sized dogs (3-25 pounds), plus, my apartment is only so large and therefore want to make sure that each pup has ample space to enjoy his/her time with myself, Watson, and Sherlock. If your dog has special needs let me know about them as soon as possible. I am happy to accommodate any special feeding schedules, oral medications, walking assistance, separation anxiety, etc. when I can. And lastly, I do require that all dogs have the rabies vaccine and other standard vaccinations such as - Parvo - Distemper - Canine Hepatitis - Bordetella This is for the safety of all the animals in my care including other clients' furry family members. Thank you in advance and we can't wait to meet your fluff ball!
A typical day
I’ll come to your home and if there are any specific instructions you have for your pet I am more than happy to follow them, especially when it comes to walks.
