Cuddles, love, attention & walks!

Pet care experience

Dogs are my one true love in life and I raised my first dog (a cockapoo) on my own for 3 years. Potty-trained and tricks all taught by me and he was 100% my responsibility so I know all about caring for all dog's needs. After a few years, we upsized to a dog family of 4. I have walked and cared for all kinds of dogs, from small Cockapoos to large Labradoodles and Samoyeds. Now, we have a 2.5 year old 80lb Olde English Bulldogge, she is equal parts lazy (sleeps 18 hours a day) and sociable (LOVES other dogs and wants to play). She would love to have a doggie guest over that is enthusiastic about other dogs and have play dates all day. I would love to help you care for yours and provide them with all the love and attention they need while you're away!

Michelle was able to take care of Goober's (5 month old Siberian Husky) basic needs, but seemed to have had issues keeping him in check when he decided to get a little more playful and active. Probably a better fit for a less active breed.

Lucy loves Michelle! She’s great at updating us throughout visits. We hope to rebook Michelle for all future trips.

Pippin seemed really happy in Michelle's care. Michelle did a great job with him and sent updates and photos throughout the day. She even took him to hang out at a dog friendly cafe!

As Michelle’s college roommate for the past four years, I have come to know her as an avid dog lover who is extremely responsible and trustworthy. Michelle has four dogs back home and while she was in college it was clear that she cared for them and missed them deeply. She coordinated video calls with her parents on a regular basis to check in on the dogs. Around campus in the city of Philadelphia, Michelle was always enthusiastic upon sighting a dog and was compassionate in her interactions with them. I would not hesitate to hire Michelle to care for my own dog. I know she would care for my dog as if she were her own.
