Loyal and Knowledgeable Caretaker
Pet care experience
Hello-! My name is Michigan, and I use they/he/she (any) pronouns. I've cared for animals of all kinds my entire life, going above and beyond to establish understanding, trust, and fun between my clients' furry families. I've recently been certified as a Canine Coach, with professional work experience in Daycare, Training, and care handling. I've done it all, from puppy training to upkeeping a senior's medical routine. Animals have always given me a chance to find Purpose- it seems they always know theirs. Their presence in our lives is like magic to me. I'm confident I can give your pets exactly what they'd ask for, and return some of that magic they grace.

Michigan was the best! They came to meet Birdie before the booking and sent an update and pictures every day that I was gone!! When I got back Birdie was happy and relaxed and had had a great time with Michigan! It was a great experience for me and Birdie, thank you Michigan!!
Michigan did a wonderful job with my boys, even accommodating a last minute change of plans and administering medication! Both kitties seemed happy and healthy upon my return. Would definitely re-book! A++
We love Michigan!! Michigan was communicative, sent tons of photos, and extremely accountable! My cat already misses Michigan!

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to care for your pet in their own home, allowing them space to share their beloved belongings and routine. I am currently best suited to house smaller dogs in my simply sweet apartment, where I live with my boyfriend (who is also in the pet caretaking business)! We have two lax kitties that make friends with everyone who enters. I'm blessed to be very close to the beach and the CTA; my neighborhood is beautiful, and I love to explore more with furry companions, making connections along the way.

Information Natalie S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or notable behaviors you tend to or are in training for. I'm familiar with most breeds and their tendencies, and so I pride myself for having space in my heart for a cat or dog of any shape and size.
A typical day
I love to share new experiences and dedicate time to play, physically and mentally. They'll be spoiled with attention as I share some of my favorite things- dancing to music, talking about our days, running at the beach, enjoying the weather, and making new friends!

Availability
I currently work flexibly at a dog-daycare. I am typically available for evening care and visits, routine or on-demand weekday walks, sitting, and even boarding. The farther in advance we plan, the easier I can adjust my routine to prioritize your pet's care. I do not have a car- I commute via public transportation.
