Highlights
Pet care experience
I 💓 all types of animals!
I have been around dogs and my entire life, as we always had at least one dog in our home growing up. Right now I have 2 of my own fur babies. Cutie, my eldest, has been with me for 13 years. Cutie is helpful with dogs that like to relax. Cutie also likes to be with elder dogs that enjoy their own space or dogs that need special care. I enjoy taking my fur kids out on walks, bringing them and their friends to 1000 acres dog park. My enclosed back yard provides me an ideal space to play with them as well. Roux, is the most recent addition to the household. He is super energetic and loves to play! Roux is friendly with all types of dogs and can help sociaIize dogs who are working on socialization as a goal. I used to be a volunteer at the Oregon Humane Society. I also have experience taking care of dogs that are disabled, as one of Cutie's best friends, Maya, became paralyzed about 4 years into their friendship. Maya's parents would only leave her with me because they know I provided excellent care for her. I care about people as well as dogs, in my past I have paid/taken dogs to get groomed when the owners could not, walked dogs of my friends who were too sick to get their dog out, and taken my friends dogs on special trips that the owner was not physically able to do. I board dogs at my house. My backyard is enclosed and there are 2 points of access to it so your dog can have its own entrance. I am open to taking fur babies that need the extra support in order for their stay to be successful! My home is set up so there is time for dogs to have their own space if needed. I make sure to give dogs breaks after high energy has happened. There are numerous water bowls throughout the house and back yard that are filled multiple times a day with fresh water. I have first aid dog safety supplies on hand. I give 30 minute breaks after meals so no dogs will suffer from bloat. I make sure to feed all dogs separately, so there are no food aggression issues. Communication is very important to me, and I am not shy about asking questions. I take direction well about how people interact with their pets.

Ratings and reviews
We will definitely be using Michelle again.
Michelle is so good with Cassie!!
Michelle takes wonderful care of my poodle. She always checks in with me and does extra things, like clean her eyes.
Michelle took extremely good care of my two boys, and was flexible with our pickup and dropoff times. i highly recommend this sitter. My dogs returned to me happy and worn out!!
Loved the communication with pictures, we feel like our pups are happy and safe when they visit you!!
Was nervous about leaving town for a work trip. It was the first time since adopting my boy that he was away from me. Michelle was amazing, Brody was pretty nervous about staying in a new place but if I had to do it all over again I don't think I could of picked a better place. Thank you again for all the care you provided.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is very important to me. I monitor dogs when they are meeting each other and when they play. My home is set up so if certain dogs are not a match to hang out, they do not have to see each other.
Pets
A typical day
The walk will depend on the needs of the dog-as some dogs like to walk with more privacy and others enjoy parks that have more encounters with other dogs. If you are comfortable with your dog being off leash at some point, I would take them to dog parks so the dog can socialize. I can also play ball or Frisbee. I also can play with stuffed animals. If you want your dog to go on a more lengthy activity I can take them to play disc golf or on a hike. I can also introduce your dogs to other dogs if they want to make new friends.
