I love the furry friends, all of em

Pet care experience

I have a dog of my own, he is a 2 year old Chi-Poo. I’ve had him since he was 7 weeks old. I love taking him on walks so he can explore the outdoors. I’ve also had three dogs before her, they were both a joy to care for. I can definitely work from home. I have a big back yard that the dogs can play and run freely in. My availability is Monday - Friday after 5 pm. And the weekends I’m available anytime. I am available to either walk the dog, or do a quick visit. I have a 5 month old bully pit who is very playful. I also have a black lab who is 8 years old. They are both very playful with each other. There are 2 children and 2 other adults who live in my household who loves dogs. We have a closed in back yard that is perfect for dogs to run around in.

Michelle has been a lifesaver for me. Its so great to be able to schedule a walk and a visit for my dog, London, on days I have to work late or go out of town. So much easier then dropping off at a boarding center. London gets to enjoy the comfort of her own home, without all the unnecessary stress that boarding causes. Michelle goes above and beyond too! So much more love for my baby than she would get in a “prison cell” at a boarding center. I know Michelle treats her with as much love as possible and that is vital for me to know when I already feel so guilty for leaving her. It Gives me great peace of mind and I would recommend her services to anyone! Very affordable as well. -Raheem

Michelle has Kept My Yorkie Mix Kye while I was out of town. She was great with him and made him very comfortable! I’d recommend her services to anyone who needs quality pet care!

Michelle is a very responsible loving dog caregiver. She is one of the few people I could say actually really cares for the animals well-being. I highly recommend that if you need anyone to watch your animals to go to her ! :)

I have a pet-friendly Chi-Poo. I take him on long walks and occasionally play in the back which is fenced in. We play catch, soccer, and jog at the park which has a small track.

Information Michelle S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the size and the kind of dog I am sitting. I would like to meet to see if our animals can interact positively.

A typical day

I like to take dogs for walks at local forest preserves where we can talk different trails. Since I have worked for Student Conservation Association (SCA), I am comfortable with trail walking with pets.
