Pet care experience

I know how difficult it is to find a reliable pet sitter! I have been pet sitting for family and friends for over 10 years. I am Pet CPR/First Aid certified and am very passionate about this job! I am a full time student and full time pet sitter. I will feed/medicate and take your dogs out for a potty break prior to and after school. We will spend the afternoon and evenings playing, studying & relaxing. I do not have a problem if your pet sleeps in bed with me or cuddles up to me on the couch. I can also bring in your paper, grab your mail, take in/out your trash bins or whatever other house chores you need done. I will make sure you feel at ease when you are away from your home and animals! UPDATE: I currently work nights at a local hospital - 3x a week, 6PM-3:30AM.

I am disappointed that after a repeat visit with Michelle, I’ve found conflicts rendered her unable to provide consistent care, despite taking on the responsibility. A neighbor’s report of a friendly but unknown guest (male, and unknown by me or my dog), reluctance/failure to disclose multiple lengthy conflicts, and finally coming home to the overwhelming smell of pet odor eliminator were all unsettling… but finding my pup stinky and her crate bed pee-stained was heart-breaking. While increasing demands of nursing school come at the expense of availability, attempts to compensate were not enough, and withholding such information from me was wildly inappropriate. I'd like to have discussed this with her prior to writing this, but having now ignored my inquiries for 2 days, I feel obligated to at least inform future clients of these unfortunate findings.

Michelle was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond on things to help me while we were away for a week. The house was better than when we left it and the animals seemed overall happy. I’m thankful we found Michelle and hopefully the crazy pups didn’t scare her away. Highly recommend!

Michelle was everything we could ask for! She was amazing at taking care of all the boys but paid special attention to our blind dog Marti and his specific needs. We will be using her again and again. Thanks Michelle for the pictures of the boys during our time away it made us happy to see them being loved.

Michelle was great! She stayed at our place and took good care of our two dogs while we were gone for four nights. She was very responsive to our messages while we were gone and sent us daily updates and pics which helped put us at ease so we could enjoy our trip more. Both dogs seems happy and well taken care of, and our place was just as we had left it. We will definitely use Michelle again!

I would like to know more about your dog's personality- is he/she hyperactive, have accidents in the house, elderly and need more potty breaks, etc. The more I know about your pet and his/her daily routine, the better I can see to it that they have a good experience with me! I do not have any breed preferences and enjoy the company of all breeds!

A typical day

We can go on walks around the neighborhood. We will have play time in your backyard with their favorite toys to release built up energy. We can also swim or hike, if the weather permits and only with your approval!
