Availability
I work mostly M-F but have federal holidays off and flexible weekends which allows me to provide care for your furbaby. In the event I do need to step out for an appointment or to drop off/pick up the kids from school, the fully fenced in yard provides adequate shade and space for your pup to sunbathe or run around. I also have multiple kennels inside we can setup if your dog is crate trained and you prefer them to stay inside during short absences. The large backyard ensures your doggy can get all their zoomies out with an abundance of toys. I favor spending weekends home unless it’s flag football season and I’m out for a couple hours on a Sunday.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced in yard to provide a secure roaming and play area for your furbabys. The fence is 6ft tall around the yard, except for about 15 feet of chain link in one corner and at the entrance gate. I have a continuous recording camera on the back and front yard for extra security to ensure your pets safety. I also have indoor space in the laundry room to safely separate dogs if necessary, providing a comfortable environment for all temperaments. The neighborhood is fairly quiet and has a walking trail accessible for a stroll into the wooded park.

Information michelle o. would like to know about your pet
I’ve had experience administering vaccines, oral medication, and shots for dogs I’ve fostered. So please let me know if there are any special needs your dog has so I can accommodate.
A typical day
I’d love to let your pup take advantage of the spacious yard and doggy pool we have out back. I have toys for all sizes of dogs. For those dogs with a more chill energy, I’d be able to take them on daily stroll through the wooded park next to us. There’s also a nice paved path to the metro that offers a secluded walking trail.

Pet care experience
Coming from an animal loving family, I have cared for dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, hermit crabs, bearded dragons and fish. I have fostered and cared for animals for over 15 years, ranging from puppy litters to senior dogs. I have the space and time to dedicate, providing your dog with an enjoyable and active experience while you are away. There is a huge backyard for your dog to explore, toys for all sizes, small dog pool, and an agility weaver to teach your dog some new tricks!
Reviews
Michelle was amazing!! We had a family emergency where we needed a dog sitter ASAP. Michelle was very responsive and promptly accepted our request with open arms with no hesitation. Michelle and family were very welcoming! During our doggo’s stay, Michelle updated me constantly with adorable pictures and videos of the ample play and generous green space that Blaze enjoyed at Michelle’s property!! Blaze made plenty of friends and had a blast. Thank you Michelle and family!
Michelle and her family were wonderful! My boy returned calm and happy. I will definitely ask them to dog sit again, as needed. I highly recommend them!
Michelle and her family were great with Riley!! Tons of pics and he seemed to settle in with them and the other dogs.
Michelle was a great caretaker for our pup! She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog seemed happy and well cared for, and we’re so glad we found her. We’d definitely trust her with our pup again and would recommend her to others
