Safety, trust & environment

I don’t have a fenced yard, but I live near a big open field and have a dog park right in my complex plenty of space for safe outdoor play. I’m mindful, attentive, and follow your pet’s routine closely. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

Information Michelle S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any special needs, triggers, or routines your dog has whether it’s medication, crate training, food restrictions, or quirks with other dogs. I want your pup to feel safe, respected, and comfortable while in my care.

A typical day

I love to keep dogs active and happy! We’ll go on sniff walks around the neighborhood, get energy out at the dog park, and play fetch or tug indoors if it’s too hot outside. I also give downtime for cuddles and naps so your pup stays balanced and calm while you’re away.

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Growing up with pets taught me how to handle all kinds of breeds, personalities, and needs from feeding and walking to bath time and snuggles. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to love on their fur babies like they were my own. Whether it’s playful pups or older pets who need extra patience, I show up with love, reliability, and experience.

Michelle is AMAZING! I seriously can’t say enough good things. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with patience and care. My dog can be a little nervous around new people, but he warmed up to Michelle immediately. She gave me regular updates, sent the cutest pics, and followed all my care instructions perfectly. When I picked him up, he was calm, clean, and clearly well loved like he had a little vacation of his own. I also really appreciated how professional and down to earth she was. You can just feel that she takes this seriously and treats your pet like family. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 10/10. Highly recommend. 🐾
