My name is Michele. Nice to meet you!

In the late seventies, after graduating from the New York School of Dog Grooming, I became a dog groomer and continued doing this for many years until my youngest son graduated high school.  At that time, I entered the dental field.  Although it was a rewarding experience, I missed working with animals and have now happily returned to pet care.

Through the years I have been the owner of three beautiful dogs, a Calico cat, a budgie, fish and a hamster (a must with kids!).  It is my love of nature, dogs, and walking that motivated me to create Walking Paws.

Your pets need daily exercise just as you do.  Unfortunately, you don’t always have enough time.  This is where I come in!  Walking Paws can help provide daily midday walks to your furry friends as well as gentle love and care.
