Pet care experience

Caring, Kind, and Always Nearby! 🐾

I absolutely love animals and treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable providing everything from walks and playtime to feeding, medication, and overnight care.recently moved back to Hawaii from NYC and am excited to continue doing what I love here in Hawaii. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and become someone you can feel completely comfortable trusting with their care!

Boarding • Jan 12, 2026

Michela was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Sandy. This was a much longer stay than any of Sandy’s previous boardings, and the steady stream of updates and photos really put my mind at ease, especially seeing how happy and well cared for she was. Michela was attentive, communicative, and genuinely cared about her well-being. What stood out most was how proactive she was. She noticed a small concern, reached out right away, followed the advice I relayed from my vet, and kept me updated on how things were progressing. It’s clear she’s responsible, observant, and invested in the dogs she cares for. I would absolutely book with Michela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Michela was a lifesaver!! I needed very last-minute care for my cat and she did a great job. I returned to everything very clean and tidy, and a well cared for kitty. Absolutely would work with Michela again!

Michela is phenomenal. This is only my second time using Rover and she made me feel totally at ease. My cat was having issues and required extra care and I didn’t have to worry at all - Michela treated them like her own/even better! I’ll always go back to her and highly recommend!!

Michela was terrific! She kept me updated with photos throughout every day of Clark’s stay, and made sure I knew how well he was doing. I almost felt bad picking Clark up after what a great stay he had with Michela!

Michela is so great with my dog. I needed eye drops as well and she handled it like a pro. She made it so easy to get away and know our dog was in great hands.

Schedule

Your fur baby will fit easily into my daily routine. :) I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my time with animals, whether that’s taking them for walks, playing with them, or just keeping them company. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I have a big, fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and get some energy out. I follow each pet’s normal routine and pay attention to their individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is clean, secure, and safe.

Pets

A typical day

I love making sure every pet has a fun and happy day! We can go on walks, play with their favorite toys, get plenty of exercise, and have lots of cuddle time. My family also has 3 pups of our own, so your dog will have plenty of opportunities for playtime and furry friends to keep them company. Every pet is different, so I like to find what they enjoy most and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re with me!
