Highlights
Pet care experience
Full time animal lover home!
I’ve owned dogs of all sizes and cats my entire life! I’ve grown up in a big animal lover home so I love to occasionally foster, volunteering at shelters and pet sitting! I have decades of experience with animals - dogs, cats and reptiles! I’m comfortable teaching new commands, and grooming if requested! My cat and dog are both good with other dogs and cats so they will love the company! I currently work from home full time so expect lots of cuddles, walks throughout the day and trips to the parks on weekends!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Michelle was the best sitter ever for our two cats! She watched them for 3 nights, and she sent photos and kept us updated on how they were doing. Our male cat is very scared in new environments, and she did a great job with giving him an area in her home where he at options of places to hide so he felt secure. She had a nanny cam that showed he was coming out in the middle of the night to eat and drink and use the litter box, which was so helpful for our peace of mind. She was accommodating about us changing our pick up time to a little later, and is such a sweet and kind person. We will definitely keep using her in the future!
First time user and have already recommended! We loved Michelle. She was very responsive and made sure to make myself and family comfortable being away from our baby Tiger. She will definitely be Tigers home away from home whenever I’m away.

My doggies had a great time at Michelle's. She sent daily updates with pictures and messages. She followed feeding instructions and took our dogs on many walks (which they love). We felt like our dogs were having a blast and were at ease leaving our dogs with her. I would definitely come back to Michelle for future boarding.


Best cat sitter ever! Michelle went above and beyond. 1000/10 recommend. Our kitties loved her and they’re typically shy. Michelle was attentive, kind, and punctual. She sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures!


Ahhhmazing!!! Michelle will absolutely be our go to dog sitter! Oliver is still a puppy so he is high energy and still working on his potty training. This was our first time using rover and his first time away from us. Michelle took care of him above and beyond our expectations! She sent us model pictures of him daily (much better than he lets us take of him, so we have new profile pics of him, lol!) She provided daily updates with the pics too, all of which gave us complete peace of mind! We couldn’t have had a better experience and that made our vacation that much more relaxing. We are extremely thankful to Michelle for treating Oliver like her own! 😊

Michelle has been my go-to cat sitter for nearly five years now! I have to travel a lot for work and my cat Marie is super sensitive around new people but Michelle has always been there with regular pet selfies to make me feel better!

Schedule
I’m currently working at home full time with a flexible schedule so I’m able to fit in feeding times, walks throughout the day and plenty of cuddles! I have a dog and cat of my own so a furbaby’s needs are already part of my everyday life!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a shaded fenced yard and an entire home for your furbaby to explore! I have a very friendly dog and cat (both small) that love new friends and will keep your furbaby company with playtime! We will fit in several walks in a day in my very quiet and green neighborhood, plus so park time on the weekends if allowed! I have a very comfortable spacious crate if it is preferred for continued training and my own toys and blankets which I have cleaned regularly !
Pets
A typical day
I like to start my mornings with a good walk to stretch the legs and relieve the pups! After we come in, clean paws and have our breakfast. I like to fit in 3-4 walks a day and there will be plenty of cuddles in between! Once I day I do general command training (with treats) with my dog so I will do it with the group which helps stimulate their minds and reinforce good behavior! After dinner, we go for one more walk before we cuddle in front of the tv till bedtime!
