About Michelle

*10% discount offered on stays of 7 night or more.
Every booking includes lots of cuddles, afternoon play time and lots of attention!

*Sadly Moose our 6yo Ridgeback crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2021. He was a great friend to many.*

My husband and I are outdoors people who love animals. We take our dogs on hikes and to the beach often, and would be happy to do the same for your furry friend if you like. Outdoor exercise is important for animal health and we will ensure your dog goes for regular walks!

We live on a quiet and safe street with friendly neighbours. We have a large covered patio and a huge yard (1.2 acres) with a fence so the animals are safe and secure. During the day we have the dogs inside a smaller area with a high fence and as soon as my husband gets home they are free to run around the property. Think zoomies, ball throwing and playing! My husband gets home about 2-3pm and will hang out and play with the dog/s in the afternoon. Ball chasing is the number 1 afternoon game!

We treat all pets as our own when they stay with us. They become part of our family and we send regular pictures and updates throughout the stay. Our goal is to give your pet the best experience and ensure you feel safe and comfortable leaving your family member with us. We often hear "my fur baby is having a better holiday than I am!" or "they won't want to come home they are having such a good time". I have fostered dogs and offering pet services for over 9 years. I have completed 2 x 10 week dog behaviour courses over that time and am very comfortable in ensuring all of your dogs needs are met and understood.

We can cater to your specific needs (such as a second daily walk/special diet/medication etc). All pets, their families and their needs are unique just like our service. We are known for going out of our way to go above and beyond a basic service and treating each pet like our own.

We do a free Meet and Greet for every new pet. It is important that the dog is comfortable in the new space and it allows for us to talk through all of your pets needs, I can answer any questions you may have and provide you that extra reassurance so you know your pet is staying in a safe and enjoyable environment.

We are very flexible with bookings (such as short notice and drop off and pick up times). We try to best accommodate you and your pet whether that be a 5am drop off on your way to the airport or a 7pm pick up on your way home. Any questions please ask!


We would love to make new furry friends and take care of your family member.

We were so confident leaving Sienna in the care of Michelle even with her being on a range of medications during this stay. Sienna absolutely loves her time at her home away from home. It speaks volumes to the care and love she receives while there.

Michelle was a great host. She has a large property with other dogs which kept ours entertained and would send daily updates on my dog's stay.

First time leaving my 13 year old Coco with a sitter. Michelle kept me updated and sent some pics, it helped make me feel more comfortable.
