MEET THE TEAM
Michelle S.
Owner and Founder
Hello & Welcome! I am so excited to have you visiting our website! We are a team of Pet Care Specialists that LOVE what we do!
A little bit about me; I moved from Washington, Connecticut to Cave Creek, Arizona with my family in 1999. I was too young to choose where we moved but beyond grateful to land in Cave Creek! I have been a grateful “Creeker” for the past 20 years while remaining very close to my roots in CT. My whole life I have had a love and respect for all animals! They have always been a part of my life. I can remember pet sitting for our neighbor who had a litter of kittens when I was 10 years old (Best job EVER!). Fast forward to today I have been able to turn my years of experience into an incredible company!
I started Paws & Claws Pet Sitting Services, LLC with the goal to help care for other pets just as I have my own. I would like to make it easier for you to leave your beloved pets home while you are busy or away on that much-deserved vacay. Knowing your pets will be cared for with full love and attention by one of our experienced heart centered pet care specialists will put your mind at ease while you’re away, while keeping your pets comfortable at home. I stand by our team and everything our company has to offer! We look forward to caring for your pets!
Each of our Pet Care Specialists are employees. They have been hand selected by me and is held to a higher standard of pet care. You can rest easy knowing our team has been background screened through Verified First.
Our team is ready to provide you with extraordinary care for your pets and superior customer service for you!
Tailwags,

CAREFREE, ARIZONA | AZ OFFICE MANAGER & PET CARE SPECIALIST
Hi! I am the AZ office manager and also a pet care specialist for Paws & Claws.
I am originally from Minnesota and now live in Carefree. We still go back to Minnesota for the beautiful summers so feel we have the best of both worlds! We spend October through May in beautiful Arizona. I grew up on a lake in southwest Minnesota with lots of cats and dogs. I have had a Siberian husky, pug, a couple of yellow labs, and my current pup who is a Cairn Terrier named Kobe who is 14. I just plain love animals!
I worked in the corporate world for over 20 years (and totally loved it). Being semi-retired now, I love having more time to spend with family and friends and doing things I truly enjoy like golfing, hiking, and hanging out with fur babies. I also do a lot of volunteer work, especially love helping at the Humane Society.
I absolutely love working at Paws & Claws and have met so many wonderful pet parents and fur babies. I can’t wait to meet and care for YOUR furry friends! They are always in good hands with Paws & Claws – we treat them with the same love and respect as we do our own!
