Pet care experience

I am a certified vet assistant and have my bachelors in biology. So, I am trained to do nail trimming, medications, injections, anal glands ect. Living in my home is my husband, our son who was born in July 2025 and myself. Currently I work with reptiles and mammals at the Reptarium. My whole life revolves around the care of animals so Ive had a lot of practice! The only animals at my house are my chickens and they are well contained in the back yard. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I do have a long lead so they can safely explore the whole yard!

Michaela and her family are SO helpful when I need a dog sitter. Regular updates, flexibility for pick up and drop off, and my dog always comes home happy. Will 100% be boarding with Michaela again.

Michaela was absolutely wonderful! I'm always worried about leaving our dog while on vacation, but she sent us updates and pictures of our Beatrix and I knew that she was in good hands. I really appreciated the constant communication and her flexability. I highly recommend Michaela and look forward to booking future visits with her. Thank you so much again!

Michaela took great care of my two dogs while we were out of town for a week. Provided updates regularly and they seemed to be very happy in her home. Highly recommend!
