I’m a traveling dog sitter! I make any request work as best I can. I love getting to incorporate dogs in my daily life as much as I can so I’m quite open and flexible. I work in the tourism/travel industry which leaves me some freedom to pick and choose dates.

Information Michaela M. would like to know about your pet

I just like to know how owners prefer their dog be cared for. Do they have a routine they are used to? Particular eating habits/needs? Favorite toys? Favorite walking/running spots? Common behaviors? How do they do in the car? How are they off leash?

A typical day

Whatever pets are typically comfortable with of course. I love taking dogs to dog friendly outdoor spaces on or off leash. Does your pet like to go for a swim or walk by the water? Perhaps they would be interested in a pet safe art project to make for their owner. Maybe pets wanna go for a ride in the car and visit a new place! We’re all about the adventures here.

Pet care experience

Hello welcome I love dogs! Based in West Yellowstone and willing to travel. **PLEASE READ** There are very few dog sitters and VERY HIGH demand. Thank you in advance for your communication, flexibility, and understanding. When you reach out if you could include: 1) where you are staying while visiting Yellowstone 2) if your pup is okay to socialize with other dogs I may have booked 3) does your pup travel well in the car? I’ll take your sweet angel on an adventure while you adventure in Yellowstone. I have experience owning, fostering, rescuing, and training dogs! Beyond dog sitting for a variety of clients in a variety of locations, I have also spent time working in dog rescues and with programs that train service animals. I am also a local guide in the National Park and general area if you have questions for your trip to Yellowstone :) (or Grand Tetons!) ((or Glacier!!))

Michaela was great. She was able to setup a time to meet and daya to take care of our girls. It was super short notice....less than a week before we got there. Couldn't have been happier

We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover sitter! We were visiting Yellowstone National Park for five days and wanted our dog to have an adventure of her own while we explored. She went above and beyond to make that happen. Every day, our dog enjoyed walks, trips to the lake, and playtime with other dogs. It truly felt like she had her own vacation while we were having ours! We loved getting updates and knowing she was having such a great time in a safe, caring environment. She was also incredibly flexible with pickup and drop-off times, working around our changing Yellowstone schedule without hesitation. That extra effort made our trip so much less stressful and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like family. We came back to a happy, tired pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter!

She’s the best! Our puppy loved it. She was wonderful with communication and sending us pictures to keep our mind at ease with leaving our puppy for the day. Would highly recommend her!

Michaela is an amazing dog sitter/walker. She has an infectious personality that put my border collie at ease. He loved hanging out with her. Michaela made sure he got plenty of exercise and he was well taken care of. She was very flexible with her schedule yet was timely and communicative. I highly recommend Michaela and will use her again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
