Animal lover 6 years of experience

Pet care experience

I grew up animals and learning how to take care of them properly I absolutely love all animals especially both dogs and cats. I’m currently studying to become a vet tech, I do have some knowledge from my study’s as well. I grew up knowing how to properly take care of dogs in particular so I do have experience taking care of them. I’ve been in the dog walking business for 6 years now when I started it I fell in love with it ever since and continued. I am very aware of the responsibility and care. I am very dedicated I do have a way with animals. I’ve cared for and walked different types of breeds of dogs to huskies to Chihuahuas and many more. I’ve also taking care of cats too! I’ve very comfortable with any age as well to puppy’s to seniors.

Michelle was kind and clearly cares about the pets she looks after. She followed all of our instructions and left our home exactly how we left it, which we really appreciated. There were a couple of timing and communication issues at the beginning, but once we connected, she was very responsive and made sure everything was taken care of. I appreciated her willingness to adjust and make things right. Overall, our experience ended on a positive note, and I would feel comfortable booking with her again.

We booked Michelle for a drop in after a meet and greet while we were present to get our anxious dog familiar with her. She was wonderful with our pups and now our newest addition. She follows the instructions given and after one meet and greet she knew exactly what to do with our dogs. Our anxious pup was jumping on her for attention and love and was amazing around her! Thank you for being patient and letting our dogs get familiar with you before our long trip this summer Michelle! 🩷🩵🩷
