Pet care experience
Kind & Friendly: Fur-Ever Friends
Now in Chicago!! I’ve been working with Rover for the past 3 years in the NY/NJ area, and I’m excited to bring my experience and love for animals to the Chicago community. I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds, including Pitbulls, Rottweilers, Huskies, and Weimaraners. I also have hands-on experience with anxious dogs and pups dealing with separation anxiety — I know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby with someone, and I’m here to make that experience stress-free and full of love! Dogs have been part of my life since I was a child. I was raised with three Chow Chows, later had two Weimaraners, and most recently cared for my sweet boy — a gentle Pitbull who was 9 years before crossing the rainbow bridge 🌈🕊️. Even after I moved away from my home country when he was five, my parents always kept me close to him with photos and videos. I miss him everyday. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or chill & cuddle, I care for every pup as if they were my own. Friends have trusted me with their pets for years, and I’d love the chance to be that trusted sitter for you too!!

Ratings and reviews
Michelle is the best, my dog loves her and she helped me out when I was very ill in the hospital
Michelle has been giving midday walks to Bruno for several weeks now when I am away at work, and she’s been super reliable and attentive to any specific info I have provided. I booked the first walk when I was home so she could meet my dog first, as I was a little nervous about hiring a dog walker for the first time, and I could tell she’s experienced and good at calmly handling my energetic pup. This gave me some peace of mind. I’ll be happy to keep booking Michelle.
Michelle was great. Our dog loved her and she sent a ton of pics & videos while she stayed at our home taking cake of our dog.
Michelle was the absolute best with my girl Lou. She was communicative, timely, and sent lots of photos. She also was accompanying if I had sudden schedule changes. I could tell she took the time to earn my dog’s trust, and she was so excited to see Michelle each time. Would highly recommendb
Michele was quick to respond to my request and meet and greet. Her first walk with Barry seemed to go very well. Looking forward to working with her more!
Michelle is hands down the best dog and cat sitter we’ve ever had. She sends regular updates and photos, which makes it so easy to relax while we’re away. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and honestly… our pets might like her more than us at this point. Could not recommend her more.
