Pet care experience
Outside of being a huge dog lover, I teach group fitness helping many feel active and fit daily. Which is a service I can also provide for your dog! My animals are my kiddos and I think I love animals more than people.... I am open to group walks, or solo walks, agility walks and senior doggos walks. I have my cpr c and aed course. I am happy to feed them, make sure they get their pills/supplements if they need them! My specialty is senior dogs and rescue dogs. Both of mine were rescues and both were seniors! I have enough energy for many, and I hope that I can make your dog happy healthy and tired by the end of my visit! I have a flexible schedule and can cater it to your dog’s schedule! I update my calendar weekly, so please check out of the dates work for you. I have a big backyard that is not fenced but I would keep your babies close by and on leash. I am also beside a big park with lots of grass and things to sniff. Lots of sunlight in my space if they like to be sunbeam dogs. And I’m always keen to get up and moving if the dog is restless. At my drop in visits, I will check their food, water, temperament, let them do their business outside. And hang out with them for few minutes. Play some games and get them comfy again. On doggo walks we will explore the neighbourhoods, smell all the smells and take all of the pictures.
Reviews
Michelle was great with our sensitive pooch! Sometimes Sally is pretty standoffish, but she has warmed up to Michelle quicker than expected. Would definitely book again!
Michelle did a great job taking care of our senior pup for a week! She provided daily updates with photos and took great care of the house. She even offered to pop over to check on the pup when our flight was delayed. When we got home from the trip the dog was relaxed and not stressed.
This is our second time booking with Michelle and we can’t recommend her enough! Our 120lb Berner loves staying with Michelle when we are out of town. She takes great care of him and is wonderful at communicating and sending regular updates. We will definitely be looking to book with her again in the future :).
Michelle was absolutely amazing. Even though our Dog had some high anxiety about leaving, Michelle did an amazing job retrieving her and making her comfortable meanwhile sending updates throughout the week. Can't recommend her highly enough! Thanks Michelle for your dedication and care for Daisy while I was away

The dogs are really my clients. So I let them tell me what they need. I also try and take the dogs place where they will enjoy themselves. If you have a more reactive dog, I will find spaces the can be without too much stimulation. I’ve worked with many animals that have some level of reactivity, and I do my best to make them feel comfortable and safe.

I work from home. So I have a flexible schedule. Dogs can go outside with me every 2-4 hours. I generally let the pets tell me when they need to go out.
