Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of many different breeds of dogs throughout my life, particularly labs, bulldogs, pitbulls, and terriers. I grew up taking care of my own dogs, as well as my neighbors’ and friends’ pets! I do have a full-time job outside of Rover, but shifts tend to cap at 6-7 hours. I love being around animals, so being an active part of the Rover community is a big priority for me :) While I’m unable to care for pets in my own home, I can do anything from walks, to drop-ins, to overnight stays at your place. I’m very respectful, conscientious, and communicative when it comes to being in other people’s homes, so please feel free to reach out to me at any time while I’m caring for your fur babies!

Michaela did an amazing job taking care of our 8month old rambunctious German shepherd puppy, he can be a handful but she made sure he got all the attention and walks he needed and the house was spotless when we got home from our trip. 10/10!

Michaela is truly the best sitter we have had. She sat for us in the past when our dog was experiencing a medical crisis and handled it expertly, this most recent time she watched our dog after he had surgery, she was diligent in his post surgical care and made sure we were kept informed of his status, he also has diabetes which complicates matters and she managed his needs like a pro. I 100% reccomended Michaela to anyone looking for a kind and attentive sitter for their pup.

Michaela is simply the best. We were out of town and our dog faced a medical crisis and needed to go to the vet, she communicated quickly with us and was willing to take him to the vet for us so he could get care while we were gone. She got a tutorial from the vet on how to give him new medication injections and kept us posted on his status until we could get home. She is amazing and I will recommend her to all of my friends.

Michaela is a wonderful dog sitter, we always come home to a clean house and a happy dog when we have her stay while we travel.
