Your dog should be able to get along with other pets if you want to consider us for sitting. Our pets are very friendly and are accustomed to being around other dogs. We would love to care for your pet.

A typical day

Our main activity is walking. We either walk around our block in the village of Benzonia or we walk along Crystal Lake and when the weather permits, we will walk the shoreline of Ash Beach or Grace Rd., Beach or sleeping Bear San dunes.

Michelle was so sweet to our elderly blind terrier. She was understanding of his special needs and medications. She was also very flexible with our schedule. Michelle is a great sitter and we will use her whenever our schedules mesh.

Michelle was great with our 1 year old terrier. We loved the pictures and the updates on when he was going out and coming back from his walk. The meet-and-greet we had a couple of days ahead of time worked out great as well and we appreciated that to ensure everything would go smoothly. We look forward to having her walk our dog in the future! Top-notch!

You couldn't dream of a better person that care for your dog! Michelle and her husband are wonderful, warm people who clearly adore animals. Michelle looked in on, fed and walked our corgi daily over our wedding weekend in the area and we were so lucky to find her. Our dog is our baby and we didn't worry about him thanks to Michelle. She also sent great photos of their adventures! Highly recommend!!!
