I currently work at a cage free dog daycare in Rhode Island. I have had 10 years experience at my job caring for dogs. I work afternoons but would love to spend my mornings caring for your family members while you work! I will treat your pets like they are my own and no pet will ever be turned away! I love them all! I am able to walk dogs, or just come and give your pet some love. I am more than happy to give pets their food or medications as needed. I am more than willing to give pills and have experience with giving insulin through my job and with my own pets.
Reviews
Michelle is amazing! Our puppy loves to go on walks with her and she always leaves such detailed notes about their time together.
I can’t thank Michelle enough! Unfortunately due to Fibromyalgia I’m unable to get my pups out for walks nearly as much as I’d like especially during flare-ups and Diesel has a proclivity for escaping our fenced in yard which is extremely dangerous especially for a dog of his breed. Michelle was extremely punctual in fact, she was early! She took pictures of the walk, which I love and gives me a sense of reassurance that my pup is in good hands!
Michelle is fantastic! I've been using dog walkers for years now and Michelle is one of the most reliable and consistent walkers I've met. She goes above and beyond with her care and Roxy loves her. Michelle is highly recommended.
I've known michelle for 6 years now and she is one of the few people i trust with my dog. I have an 81lb lab with allergies and anxiety and you name it. Michelle is so amazing with her and even cuts her nails regularly. Michelle has patients and understanding like i have never seen in anyone else. You can be sure your pet is safe and sound when shes around.

Information Michelle T. would like to know about your pet
Does your pet have any allergies? Is your pet anxious with new people? What are your biggest concerns about having someone walk/visit your pet? How does the dog react to seeing other dogs when out walking? Does your pet have any medical conditions that you worry about? Does your pet have any medications that need to be given at a certain time? Does your dog have sensitive feet when walking on pavement? Does your pet have any food aggression, fence aggression, over protection tendencies or separation anxiety? Does your pet listen well to commands? If aggression issues were to occur, what are some ways that you might handle the situation? (i.e. commands, redirecting, scruffing) Is the dog crate trained? If there were an emergency, who would I contact and what precautions or steps could I take to help the situation? (i.e. medications) Is there any food that your pet gets during the day?
A typical day
I will take your dogs on nice walks around your neighborhood or to their favorite spot! For drop in visits, we will run in the yard or play inside with your pets favorite toys!
