Family care especially fur you!
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm where our pets were always family members and treated with love and respect. I have two rescue dogs myself. I am happy to keep my dogs separated from clients. I am fortunate that my parents have a farm and welcome their grand pups in case of overlaps in sittings. My girls do great with most other pets, however I understand every animal has their own personality and comfort zone. I respect and do things on the owner and the pet’s terms. I strive to provide an experience where you feel you are leaving your loved ones with people who care as much as you.
Reviews
Michelle was wonderful-above and beyond! She sent photos each day, left the house looking great, and just generally made us feel very secure with us leaving our fur babies for five days.
I can always trust Michelle to care for my dog and treat him like her own. She is on top of walks, dog parks (for play) feeding, treats and love. Her communication is top notch, providng updates with photos which are always better than I have ever caputed of my doggo. With Michelle as my dog sitter, I have no concerns. I can kick back and chill because I know my dog is safe, happy, and entertained!
Michelle is an amazing dog mom herself, and general animal lover! She has always formed great relationships with all of my pets over the years, which has now been 3 dogs and 1 cat. When I need someone to watch my babies, she's the person I want. She's going to love them and center the day around them and make sure they have everything they need. If there's an emergency, I know Michelle can handle it. Both my dog and cat have separation anxiety and behavioral issues related to that. When she watched my pets recently, she took such high quality care of them and my house. My dog was calm and happy from all the attention and running she had him doing, my cat was happy and at peace, and my house was super clean. They obviously felt really cared for and safe, because they acted like it was no big deal when I came home a week later (versus the usual velcro dog/cat I have on my hands). And I felt calm and at peace too because she communicates really well, sends lots of pictures, and everything was in such good shape when I returned. She made everything easy on me. Love Michelle and hope she can always watch my pets when I'm away!
Michelle loves animals and will take amazing care of your furbaby. My dog absolutely loves her, which demonstrates her exceptional skills in pet care. If you're looking for a trustworthy and dependable individual to watch your furry family member and responsibly take care of your home, I wholeheartedly endorse Michelle. As an added bonus, Michelle's talents extend beyond pet care – she's an accomplished photographer who captures heartwarming moments via photos of your pet. Her skillful photography not only offers you peace of mind knowing your pet is content and well looked after but also provides you with beautifully frameable furbaby portraits.

Availability
I worked the corporate world since college and decided I would take a break and enjoy a summer with my own fur babies. I have always been the go-to dog sitter for close friends and family. I quickly received more requests by word of mouth with my flexible schedule this summer. I am currently working on starting my own company for pet products making my schedule open and flexible!
