Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Lover & Trusted Pet Sitter ⭐
I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and I’ve looked after friends’ and family’s pets over the years. My partner Darcy has also grown up with dogs, including his family’s Golden Retriever who was part of their family for 9 years. Since moving to London, we’ve both really missed having a furry friend around, so I’ve started pet sitting and have loved getting back to spending time with dogs. I’m reliable, caring and understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved and well cared for. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re in good hands.

Ratings and reviews
Michaela looked after Herbie so well, she always replied quickly and he enjoyed his time with her. I would definitely have her look after him again!
Michaela and Darcy did a brilliant job of looking after Seamus. I'm sure he feels like he was on holiday! She sent me constant updates with pictures of him having a great time and looked extremely happy. Could not recommend more.
Michaela cared for my dogs, Chandler and Joey, while she was in Australia, and she was wonderful with them. She was responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring, and I always felt confident they were in good hands. I would happily recommend Michaela to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy pet caregiver.
Michaela is a caring individual, who is an animal lover! There is no one else better suited, and that I would trust more with our pets

Schedule
I work from home three days a week, with my partner Darcy also working from home for two of those days, so your dog will have plenty of company and attention. Whether they’re staying with me for boarding, doggy day care or I’m house sitting in your home, I’ll do my best to stick to their usual routine so they feel happy, comfortable and settled. I have set my availability for boarding and day care bookings on days when I can be home (Friday-Monday & Wednesdays), ensuring your dog gets the time, care and companionship they deserve. On Tuesdays & Thursdays my partner and I both work in the office and therefore there wouldn’t be anyone home from around 8:30am-6pm, therefore I’ve set myself as unavailable on those days. On occasions we could be flexible with home days, please message me for more details.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime and any medication if needed. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in safe and caring hands.
A typical day
A typical day would include a morning walk, regular toilet breaks, plenty of play, attention and enrichment throughout the day, and an evening walk. Feeding, medication and their usual routine will always be followed. I’ll tailor their day to their individual energy levels and personality. On weekends, Darcy and I love taking dogs along with us wherever possible - whether that’s exploring a new park, going for a long walk or relaxing at a dog-friendly pub so they can enjoy the day with us rather than being left alone at home.
