Information Michelle Z. would like to know about your pet

If there are any specific things that I should look out for with your dog :) What their favorite toy is, what the best way is to get their attention or have them listen! If they are okay with other dogs and people, etc.

A typical day

I love going on walks as I love exercise as well! The park is always a must to let them get their sniffs and play time in! If there are any toys that are their favorites maybe some fetch!

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs of my own for 10 years now and have lots of experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs. I love dogs and personally have lots of energy and responsibility to take care of dogs. I’m great at communicating and will take the best care of your fur babies as well!

Michelle is a fantastic! She is responsible, on time, and energetic. I highly recommend her for dog walking services. She puts my dog at ease when she greets him and leaves him exhausted when she drops him off. She is a lovely soul and I know my dog really enjoys being with her.

Michelle did a great Job when she took care of and walked my dog. She took her out to play, took her on long walks and Chloe (my dogs name) loved Michelle and is excited when she see’s her. Michelle loves animals and I would highly recommend her to walk and care for your dog. You can guarantee the pet she is caring for is being loved, treated with respect, kept out of harms way and having fun. I have seen Michelle’s work ethic in athletics, she is a hard worker. She will work hard for you and your pet.
