Confident your dog(s) in good hands
Pet care experience
My husband David and I are dog lovers with 3 rescue dogs of our own who get along great with other dogs. We also rescued a indoor/outdoor cat now who is friendly. We stopped sitting for 5 years but loved meeting and helping new dogs and their owners that we decided to start again! We have 1 acre of secured fenced in land and a doggie door leading to dog run area waiting to share with another dog(s). My husband is retired and home pretty much all day. He takes the day service and me, the night service and feedings. We have personally dog (and cat) sat for many family and friends pets when we lived in Bay Area and now living in this area, we know first hand how hard it is to worry about our "fur babies" when we have to leave them whether it be for vacation or a short trip. Feel comfortable to leave them in our hands and if needed for additional charge I can have them washed for you when you return since I also used to be a dog groomer!
Reviews
The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.
Michelle is wonderful!! You can tell that she truly loves animals, and she definitely showed my two kids that she cared about them. She sent pictures and kept me updated on how everyone was doing. She bathed them and brushed them out, too!! There is no question in my mind---I will definitely use Michelle again...and again... and again...
Michelle and dave are great pet sitters. Franklin had a fabulous time for two weeks in their care. They are very sweet people who took a true interest in our dog and sent me several pictures along the way. They have a great big yard and three friendly little dogs that Franklin had a lot of fun with. We highly recommend them.
Sunny loved his stay at Michelle's house! He got so much attention and had plenty of room to run around and play. Michelle and her husband took great care of him and we will definitely be back again.

We have a complete fenced in back yard with over 1 acre for roaming. We do have chickens who free roam but if dog isn't used to them, we can keep them in chicken coop area. We treat our dogs like our babies and would treat yours the same

Information Michelle R. would like to know about your pet
Prefer smaller breeds but with my husbands guidance can take on larger dogs as well. We have watched from small breeds to large collies. No breed we couldn't watch as long as dog friendly
A typical day
Typical day is hubby goes out to chicken coop with the other dogs trailing close by or sniffing around. I take out the elder dog t make sure he urinates etc. outside. I go to work but then husband feeds our 3 doggies and is inside all day (except with possible run to gym). When I am home from work, I feed the doggies and after dinner/evening take for a walk. Nighty night time is around 10ish
