I recommend her 100%! Thank you Serena!!”

About: Not much; I've worked at pet supermarket, that's pretty cool 😎.I needed to make the word limit so I said this. Please don't be mad. I'm currently a student, my routine is as open as my clients need it be. The only days I do not work on are Saturdays. I am very attentive towards my dog. I put food and water in his respective bowls. I shower him with a lot of love and attention, so he's a bit spoiled.
About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals—growing up with dogs, cats, and horses, and actively helping my aunt in animal rescue for many years. I trained all of my own dogs and have over 25 years of experience training horses with patience, consistency, and love. In Germany, I also worked in a zoo, caring for many different types of animals, big and small. I’ve cared for senior dogs and understand the gentler pace and extra attention they need. What sets me apart is my calm, confident approach with animals and my lifelong dedication to giving them a safe, loving environment. I’ve watched dogs for friends and neighbors and treat every pet like part of the family. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I’m flexible most of the time. I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs, whether it’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. Safety and trust are my top priorities. In your home, I follow your pet’s usual routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure doors and gates are closed at all times, keep a close eye on them during walks or playtime, and give them plenty of love and attention. I’ll always keep you updated and let you know right away if something changes or if I feel your pet might need medical attention or a vet visit. I also take care of little things like bringing in the mail to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Michelle was amazing with our usually very shy and reserved cats. She was a new sitter to me as my old, much cherished sitter is no longer available. I had literally just moved, my home still mostly in boxes, and had to take a business trip out of town. I did what I could to ensure my cats were situated with all of their comfort items and all of their spaces within the home unpacked and secure before leaving. Michelle came into that situation/chaos and took charge. She was even able to pet one kitty by the end and capture a few photos of my most timid. That says ALOT because frequently, this kitty hides so effectively with sitters they cannot even provide a "proof of life" photo of her. I came home to clean litter boxes and happy, stress free cats. If you need a cat sitter, Michelle is the one. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I have worked with animals for 4 years, i know how to bath and groom cats and dogs, administer medicine, keep animals and areas clean and love and care for many different animals. I'm Currently in collage and looking for work. I am in collage for veterinary tech. I am free every day of the week for animal care. I have one friendly cat at home, I live with family but no one under 15. I can travel with easy to pick up and drop off animals and travel to feed, walk, clean.
About: I have had pets my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and care for their pets for years. I have cats and a dog. I am able to give all kinds of medication needed. I work during the day but my mornings and evenings are fully available to take care for your babys. I am free on the weekends. I do not have the space or house big enough to board your fur baby at my house. I am fully able to stay or go to your house to care for your pet
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my deep commitment to treating every pet like my own. I don’t just provide basic care—I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe and understood. With experience in handling a variety of temperaments and special needs, I tailor my approach to each pet’s personality. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and notes, so they never have to worry while they’re away.” As a work-from-home mom, pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to give your pets consistent attention, which helps them feel secure and well cared for. In the mornings, right after getting the kids ready, I feed the pets, refresh their water, and take the dogs for a walk or let them out to play and get their energy out. Throughout the day, I incorporate short breaks from work to play with the pets, check on them, or just give them some love. It’s a great way to decompress and reset between tasks. My children also help out in small ways, like brushing the pets or helping with feeding time, which teaches them responsibility. In the evenings, we have a routine of another walk or playtime in the yard, followed by dinner and winding down. On weekends, we might go on longer walks or visit a local park, especially if the weather’s nice. Because I work from home, I’m able to notice changes in behavior, appetite, or health more quickly, and I can give them the companionship they need throughout the day—something many pets really benefit from. Pet Sitting (in the client’s home): • Routine adherence: I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and medication. • Comfort: Keep their environment familiar to reduce stress. • Home upkeep: Bring in mail, water plants, take out trash if agreed upon. • Updates: Send daily photos and updates to reassure the owner. Dog Walking: • Safety first: Use proper leashes/harnesses and avoid unsafe areas or other aggressive animals. • Exercise needs: Tailor walk duration and pace to the dog’s age, breed, and energy level. • Behavior reinforcement: Use positive reinforcement if the client uses training cues Boarding (in my home): • Safe environment: Pet-proofed spaces and secure fencing. • Socialization: If appropriate, allow interaction with other pets under supervision. • Comfort items: Encourage owners to bring favorite toys, beds, or blankets. • Routine: Mimic the pet’s home routine as closely as possible to reduce anxiety.
“Megan was extremely attentive and caring with my baby Cleo. She sent me updates throughout her stay and kept me calm while I was on vacation. It was my first time leaving Cleo with a sitter and it was a 10/10 experience. Thanks again Megan!”

Emily F.
“I have known Emily for her whole life. I have seen Emily develop into a young woman with a very good work ethic. I have had the opportunity to coach her in high school volleyball and softball. Her commitment is amazing. Whatever Emily sets her mind to, she will do well. As for her love of pets, she has often taken care of our Yorkie in the past when my wife and I went on vacation. She has several pets, and I have never seen her neglect them. The dog that she has, a pocket bully, was a dog she rescued. She is a very trustworthy person, and her love for pets is unmistakable. A few years ago, my wife and I were driving with Emily in the car. We saw a woman put a little kitten in the grass next to the road. The cat could not walk. Emily insisted on taking the cat home and trying to rehabilitate it. After a few days, when the cat wasn't responding well, she took it to a veterinarian, where they said it was a birth defect, and the cat needed to be put down. She was devastated. It is examples like this that allow me to have no doubt Emily will care for any and all pets that she may have the opportunity to take care of.”
