While going a difficult transition in my life, my dog went through the transition with me. During this time, she was living in many different places and often experienced separation anxiety. As a high energy, extremely active dog, she requires a lot of attention and many walks. While under Michelle's care, my dog was taken on numerous long, scenic walks. During this time, Michelle also worked with my dog to increase her obedience while walking on a leash. My dog Hadley is still young (2 years old) so while outdoors she needs constant correction and attention paid to her behavior. Michelle made a point to work on this skill-set with Hadley and there is for sure positive changes to how she currently walks while on leash. Additionally, while under Michelle's care, my dog was fed healthy foods she enjoys (sweet potato & eggs) to increase her appetite as she has difficulty eating while under distress. Overall, I have been extremely fortunate to have Hadley taken care of and loved by Michelle during a time when I was not always around or available. My dog looks forward to spending time with Michelle and is extremely comfortable and at ease under her watch. I would recommend Michelle's service to anyone looking to hire her for pet care.

My partner and I used to have friends take care of our two dogs when we were traveling, but one time when our friends weren’t available, we decided to try Michelle. Since then, we use her every time we need a dog walker or sitter! I love that in addition to making sure that all of their basic needs are met, she will spend the rest of her visit playing with the dogs and keeping them active, or doing whatever they like to do. It’s also great that she will send email updates so I don’t need to worry about them when we’re gone. I’ve recommended Michelle to one of my friends, and she was happy with how Michelle took care of her dogs as well. I plan to continue hiring Michelle and recommending her to anyone I know who is in need of a pet sitter.
