Get ready for a waggin' good time!
Pet care experience
After growing up with dogs, and with two puppies of my own, I understand the needs of both young and senior dogs while also being able to anticipate their behavior. I currently offer daycare and boarding! Doggy daycare and boarding allows your dog to socialize with my two dogs, Atlas and Luna, without the worry of unneeded stress and mess of someone staying in your house. I work full-time from home so I can promise your fur baby will be showered with plenty of love and attention as if you were taking care of them yourselves. My boyfriend, Chris, also works remotely and will help me care for your furry friends as well. Happy vacationing! Michelle, Chris, Atlas, & Luna
Reviews
Michelle and Chris did a great job handling our puppy's first time away from home, including gracefully and creatively dealing with the unexpected. (Thank you!) Clearly "dog people", we left with peace of mind that Nova was in a trustworthy environment. She kept in touch, and was very responsive when needed. Her dogs Atlas and Luna were great companions too. We highly recommend Michelle,and she is top on our call list for next time.
Michelle is wonderful! She is a kindhearted caring individual who takes passion in everything she does. Her love for animals really shows, she takes care of others as if they were her own. She is definitely someone you can rely on and would make an exceptional sitter!
If Michelle's two dogs Atlas and Luna could, they're tell your dog how much fun staying with her is going to be. Michelle regularly takes Atlas and Luna around the neighborhood and has trained them to do a variety of different tricks. From going on adventures outdoors to cuddles indoors, I'm confident Michelle will take great care of your furry family members.
Michelle was very energetic, friendly and professional. She setup a pre-visit to come meet Dominic (and the rabbits) and to get and understanding of his routines. She took great care of him and sent several photos and did a great job of cleaning of after his messes (still housetraining). Highly recommend!

Home
Information Michelle W. would like to know about your pet
Please bring notes of their feeding routine, potty routine, crate experience, vet information with rabies/shot records, training knowledge, and what they enjoy doing the most so I can provide them the best care. Common questions: - How frequently are they fed and how much? - How frequently do they potty and where? - Are they crate trained? When do you use the crate? Do you leave the crate open to give them access to the crate during the day? - What commands do they confidently know? - Where do they love being scratched the most? Belly? Ears? Back? - What can I do to make them feel the most comfortable? - Do they experience anxiety? What tools do you use to calm their anxiety? - Do they require any medications? - Who should be contacted in case of an emergency? (Personal and Veterinarian Information)
A typical day
Our regular play routine consists of fun dog puzzles, Easter egg hunts, nature show nights, and an abundant collection of dog toys. We have a local park nearby (Fairland Recreational Park) where we will also go for walks and adore the outdoors!

Availability
I own a remote business and work full-time from home while giving very frequent dog cuddles and treats throughout my day. I let my two dogs out in the morning, at noon, and near dinner time. Since my office is in the basement, I have direct supervision over our fenced backyard so I normally let my dogs play until they want to come inside.
