Availability
I’m a doctoral student with a laptop so I can do my work from anywhere! I’m available 7 days a week for drop ins or overnights. I do have a day job so overnights will be after work through before work Monday through Friday, like a normal day for your fur babies if you work, too! I love dog walking! Please note: I cannot currently accommodate mid-day walks due to my work role Monday through Friday.

About Michelle P.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I treat every pet and every home with respect. I require a meet and greet prior to booking to ensure a good fit for your pets. I adhere to your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress, and I happily provide photo and video updates throughout the visit so you know they’re happy and secure . I double check safety such as doors and latches and I’m happy to bring in mail and packages so your home looks occupied while you’re away!
Information Michelle P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special considerations (like hates other dogs, or is scared of loud trucks). It’s super helpful to know what your first kids love, hate, and shy away from. I want to support their comfort and safety.
A typical day
I love meeting your pets where they’re at. So if they love watching birds out the window, I love that too. If they are into walking in the park, guess what? Me too! Play fetch? Yes please! Snuggle and watch tv? Count me in. Work on new skills? Yesss!

Big or Small I love them all
Pet care experience
I have experience with animals from young to senior citizens. Big or small, cat or dog, (or chicken or cow or horse!), they all steal my heart. I’m happy to practice any commands you’re working on with your puppy. I love brushing cats and dogs (though I’m not a groomer!) and I love a good walk, around the block or on the trails! Most of all, I strive to maintain consistency in your pet’s routine and provide a loving and caring presence while you’re away.

Reviews

Michelle always does a wonderful job and this time was no different! I appreciate the love and care she always shows my Lilly.

Excellent caregiver for our dog, Lucy! She went the extra mile to play with Lucy, walk her and give her love! We would definitely recommend Michelle!

Michelle stayed with our dog Dusty at our house over night and it really went well! She sent us pictures and updates, which made us feel more relaxed being away. Would and will definitely use Michelle again!


Michelle is a truly excellent sitter! It is really nice to have someone who is trustworthy and is so great with our pups!
