Dog Mom seeks FURiends

Pet care experience

I can’t remember a time in my life when I haven’t been caring for a dog. I have raised several dogs from puppies to their golden years. In fact, my Chihuahua that just passed at 21, was featured in an Indy Star article about elderly dogs. I have experience being a Dog Mom in all stages of a dog’s life. I am an active member of the Indy Boston Terrier play group. I’ll treat your dogs as if they were my own. I’m a Realtor so I have a fairly flexible schedule during weekdays. I am very experienced at going in and out of homes. I can usually be available before 5 M-F. Ideally I would love to get repeat clients that need their dogs tended in the middle of the day while their parents work. I am available for boarding in my home if the dog gets along with mine, is crate trained and doesn’t mind cats. This will be limited and will need to have the dog do a meet and greet with mine. I have a fully fenced in yard on a quarter acre on the north side of Indianapolis. My husband and I are fur parents to 2 Boston Terriers, a Frenchie and 1 elderly cat.

Michelle is a devoted dog mom. Her fur kids are spoiled rotten and well loved. Whenever we visit, my fur kids are treated like her own and if I was leaving on vacation and needed someone to watch my 5 pups, there's nobody I would trust more.

Michelle is an outstanding, caring, loving, funny individual. She has been obsessed with dogs her whole entire life and is very responsible and trust-worthy. She will love and care for your dog as if they were her very own fur baby.

I’ve known Michelle for 13 years and know how passionate she is about dogs. Being raised around dogs her entire life, she understands them and provides them with lots of care and attention. She seems to be in tune with them. With 2 Boston terriers (1 a senior and 1 a two year old pup), Michelle can manage the broad spectrum of crazy puppy energy and special attention needed for an old man that is adjusting to using a ramp. I highly recommend Michelle for the sincere pet care giver. She’s the best!

If your dog comes to my home I have a fully fenced backyard with a dog door. Your dog will have access to the backyard, always supervised by me. I’d prefer your dog to be in a crate when I leave the home for their safety. Drop in appointments in your home I can feed/water/administer medication to pets. I am happy to play with them in the backyard during this visit. If your dog needs a walk I’m happy to do that as well.

Information Michelle W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's energy level, favorite toys and activities. Does you dog have a strong prey drive? Will they chase squirrels or other animals? Do they like other dogs? They should be dog and cat friendly if they come to my home.

A typical day

I will take your dog on a walk through your neighborhood. If you are near a park I would love to take them there to enjoy nature. If your dog loves to play fetch we can play in your backyard too :)
