Your pet is family <3
Pet care experience
I've dog-sat for friends and locals who leave for work trips. I take dogs out on walks in between classes, can stay overnight, and am always careful about diets, walks, bathroom breaks, and making them feel loved.
About Michelle T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I would treat your pet how I would treat my own. I would never allow my pets to be in a dangerous situation and am always for taking extra precautions and being safe rather than sorry. I would rather stay extra long to ensure they go to the bathroom than have an accident in the house. I take into account emergency escape plans, allergies, crating rules, psychological boundaries (especially about other animals, anxieties, etc.) and maintain as much communication throughout my care as you desire.
Information Michelle T. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special circumstances or strict schedules that your pet adheres to; I will always do my best to accommodate my schedule!
A typical day
I make sure not to just meet your dog's basic needs, but make sure it is emotionally comfortable, safe, and stimulated. I'll make sure to have playtime with toys, allow the dog to take their time on a walk, and give it time to rest and relax.
Services
Michelle can watch in your home
Availability
I'm currently a college student and work remotely throughout the week, so any time that I work, I'm available to be in-home watching your pet, or taking them out on bathroom breaks when needed. I have a car and would be on campus for classes and meetings. My job is heavily involved with events, so throughout the semester, there are days when I am unavailable for large blocks (usually on weekends), but they are mostly established in advance early in the semester.
