Availability

I am currently a first year law student at U-M so my availability is really open because I am always home in my living room studying at the dinner table for most of the day, and I take several breaks throughout the day to walk my puppy around the neighborhood and Wurster park.

Information Winkler M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or if they have a strong personality beforehand so I can make sure that I setup the most appropriate and nurturing environment that I can for them.

A typical day

I love playing fetch and hide and seek using delicious treats with dogs, and I enjoy long hikes with dogs around the neighborhood so they can take in all of the different smells that they love.

Winkler was such a kind sitter for our high energy and anxious 5 month old puppy Appa. He handled stress GI issues and potty accidents and kept us updated frequently, and even took Appa to the groomer and had some helpful suggestions and tips for keeping him clean. Appa also had a good time playing with Cosmo who was able to handle Appa’s puppy energy and offer gentle corrections for him. Overall I would highly recommend Winkler as a sitter.

Winkler did a great job sitting my pooch over the holiday break, I was comforted to know she was in good hands instead of in a kennel cage all day. Winkler was accommodating with the pick up / drop off times, and sent photos periodically to let me know she was well. I highly recommend Winkler for your dog-sitting needs.
