Availability

As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is just part of my day. I'm best suited for drop-in visits and take on clients on an as-needed basis rather than a fixed weekly schedule - which means I'm a great fit for owners who need reliable coverage when traveling or something comes up.

Safety, trust & environment

I know the level of care I'd want for my own cat Leona when I'm away, and I bring that same standard to every visit. Every drop-in includes fresh food and water, a litter box scoop or potty break, and affection on your pet's terms.

Information Micaela R. would like to know about your pet

Good communication is really important to me! Before a first visit, it helps to know feeding amounts and schedules, where supplies are kept, and any routines or quirks. For cats - their play style and whether they're shy or social. For dogs - leash manners, any reactivity, and how they do with strangers.

A typical day

I tailor every visit to your pet's personality - active wand play for energetic cats, fetch or a short stroll for dogs who need to move, and quiet companionship for the shy ones. Every pet gets my full attention for the duration of the visit!

Reliable care from a pet parent

Pet care experience

I grew up in a house with three Siamese cats, and animals have been a constant in my life ever since, from living with roommates in multi-pet households to volunteering with adoption agencies. My own cat Leona (a Siamese Tortie) keeps me well-versed in the particular needs of vocal, opinionated animals! I'm detail-oriented, a frequent communicator, and I take great photos, so the updates you get won't just be reassuring, they'll be worth saving. If you're looking for someone dependable in the Portland area, I'd love to meet your pet!

Micaela was fabulous! Everything went smoothly and she was awesome with the photos and updates. I came home to a very clean apartment and I can tell she took great care of my kitty

Micaela was so wonderful with my pup. She walked her in the afternoon in June. She updated me and sent me photos while I was on a trip. Sage was so happy. Thank you for taking great care of my fur baby.

Micaela is an excellent pet sitter. Our cats, Mila and Luca thoroughly enjoyed her company and care. She provides detailed updates along with lots of pictures. Overall Micaela is a very reliable sitter and we hope to see her again!

Micaela was so amazing with our cats!! She got our notoriously shy cat to come out and eat out of her hand on one of her first visits, which has never happened before! We really appreciate her making them feel so comfortable and safe while we were away. Definitely recommend booking with Micaela! :)
