Experienced dog & cat lover!

Pet care experience

Besides having raised a dog of my own, I have worked walking and sitting dogs for family friends and clients. I love taking them out for runs, to the park, playing with toys, and most of all giving them lots of love and attention! My dog has severe anxiety, so I do have experience working with dogs that are apprehensive towards unfamiliar people and animals. I have grown up with cats as well and love spending time with them. If you have any special requests, please do not hesitate to ask!

Michaela did a wonderful job checking in on my two kitties while I was gone! She sent multiple pictures and was very communicative. I already have her booked for my next trip as well. Highly recommend!

Michaela was wonderful. The cats could not have been happier. We'll certainly book again next time we go on vacation!

Safety, trust & environment

I try to create the most comfortable environment for the animal that is both safe and familiar to them. This would include following their normal home routine as close as possible.

Information Michaela R. would like to know about your pet

Any health issues, habits, or behavioral concerns. Do they interact well with other dogs or strangers? Does your cat like to be pet? Do they prefer to come to you instead? Are they afraid of anything?

A typical day

I love to take long walks with the dogs I watch. A good game of fetch is always a great time. Running around and getting all that energy out.
