Highlights
Pet care experience
Work from Home Animal Lover!!
Ever since I was little I’ve always had special bonds with dogs, more than I have with some humans. I’ve always wanted to help care for them as young as 5 years old. In more recent years, I have dog sat over night, over long weeks and just for walks and play time. My mom jokes that all dogs love me because they see a play mate in me, but I do know when to lay down the law.

Michaela was great with HolE, she took good care of her, and took her for nice long walks. She was easy to communicate with and we were really happy that she’s taking a good care of holE.
Thank you for taking such good care of Quincy! He seemed very chill when I got home!
Michaela took such great care of our pup! She sent so many cute pics and stayed in close communication. Highly recommend!
Michaela is phenomenal! From the meet and pet, to the good night. Amos had a blast with Michaela...how do I know, the many pictures of their adventure. A walk in downtown Nashville for street tacos and a show. She was very attentive and loving. I am so grateful for her presence with my "baby" as I attended my event. Whenever I find myself in Nashville again, Michaela will be my go to sitter. Such an Angel.
Fantastic sitter for my little 4lb Nova! Came to my place and hung with her while I went to dinner. Played, sent pics right away, was very flexible. Highly recommend and will use again!
Michaela was great with our dog Archie when I had an extended day of work. Great communication, gave treats, and a walk around the block. I’d definitely recommend and use her services again.

Schedule
Currently I work remotely, and have few meetings throughout the day. I live with my roommates dog who I let out throughout the day and play with at least once during the day. I like to go for a walk a day myself, rain or shine, to get my blood moving. I love having human or dog friends join me!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My number one concern is safety for the animals. If I’m babysitting a dog, I do like to have a discussion with my client to know the dogs needs, how they react to new people and dogs, and what I can do to best make the dog feel loved and cared for. I like to know their routines because animals do have a set routine. I believe communication and respect go a very long way for any relationship. Meeting the animals is a special moment as well as meeting their humans. I want to learn as much about the dog and human as possible before being alone with the animals. For cats, I do love cuddling or giving them their space, or even play time! Cats have their routines and needs just as much as dogs do, and I want to respect their boundaries as much as possible.
A typical day
I love to walk all around different neighborhoods! I feel like these are super clean and safe for the dogs! My favorite toy to play tug of war with is the Kong Red 8. It’s perfect for all dogs because they can chew on it like crazy and it’s nearly impossible to shred! I love Shelby Bottoms and Centential Park to walk around as well!
