At your home, I adhere strictly to your instructions and routines to keep things consistent and familiar for your pup! I respect your space, making sure everything is just as you left it. I’ll keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos, so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

A typical day
I love to go for a walk to explore the neighborhood! There are several dog-friendly parks in the area. I’m happy to let them socialize with other dogs if approved by you! Around the house, we'll play with their favorite toys & maybe cuddle up for a nap to unwind & recharge. I ensure to follow their typical schedule including potty breaks, water, food, & treats! I'm always flexible & will accommodate their specific needs and preferences!

Reviews

Michaela was so patient and sweet to our nervous Cabby girl. Highly recommend


Michaela was great with my dogs and followed all instructions. Would highly recommend her for all your dog walking and sitting needs!

So sweet! She was great with Wilbur!! He loved her & she kept me updated throughout the night. 10/10 would recommend & will rebook in the future!


We had an excellent experience with Michaela! She took great care of our two little dachshunds and took Them out, walked them, and even cleaned their paws! She was reliable and communicated very well. Will continue to use her service and would recommend to other dog owners!
