Pet care experience

Spoiling pets is my specialty

have taken care of or owned pets as long as I can remember. Currently, we own 1 spayed cat that is 3 years old and a 1 year old collie/standard poodle mix that LOVES to make friends and play! I am a nurse, and am able to understand and provide pets’ medication as needed and as instructed by parents. I am able to work remote most days M-F so that means lots of time to provide attention and spoiling for your pet. Also available most weekends unless we have family plans. Happy to provide a loving a safe environment for your pet!

Oliver & Chip had the best week staying with Michelle & Darren! They were very well taken care of, which put our minds at ease while being out of town. They even made two new furry friends Teddy and Paul!

Michelle is the best! She goes out of her way to make sure my pups are comfortable and she always updates me. I feel so at ease knowing she is there 🫶🏼

Drop-In Visits • Sep 01, 2025

Michelle was AMAZING! We came home to a very happy and healthy pup. She was on time and provided pics and updates from each visit. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately made my husband and I feel at ease. We will definitely be hiring her again and again!!

If I were a beloved pet and my owners needed to board me for a period of time, I’d want to be cared for by Michelle. I’d get the good water, fancy toys, and attention. I hope I come back in the next life as a dog now that I think about it just so I can be adopted by her. Michelle cares for anyone’s pets as her own. She has the space and heart.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard that provides a safe and fun area for dogs to play. We have a 1 year old male (neutered) dog and a 3 year old spayed cat. We allow our pets to have run of the house and do not crate or restrict them to specific areas of the house. However, if you crate your pet and would prefer crating, am happy to do whatever is best for your pet.

Pets

A typical day

We’ll play fetch in the yard and go for walks in the neighborhood and nearby parks! Our dog Teddy loves to play, so there can be endless hours of doggy playtime if your dog enjoys playing with others.

Let me know if you have any special needs for your pets: medications, behaviors, or “quirks”. All pets have their own personalities, and I would want to make them as comfortable as possible.
