Kind & Friendly: Fur-Ever Friends

Pet care experience

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!!

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.

Michelle was a great house/dog sitter. She went out of her way to make our timing work for an overnight stay. My boys loved her and my home was taken care of. With one of my boys being a Pitty mix I was nervous having someone watch him but she took great care of him and my other boy.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
