I have complete flexibility in setting my pet sitting routines. I prefer to care for pets at the pet owner's home. It is much easier and less stress on the pets for me to adapt to the pets' routines. Pet owners must be non-smokers for house sitting and drop-in visits.

Safety, trust & environment

I am respectful of my clients’ homes. My focus is to care for your fur babies so they are not stressed while you are away.

Information Michele B. would like to know about your pet

It's important to me to reduce the stress on the dogs so they won't mind their owner is not at home. Learning about the dogs preferences, likes and dislikes. What do they require that their owner would do if the owner was home. When going on walks are there dogs to avoid or friends they will want to play with?

A typical day

During the meet and greet, I want to learn about the dogs routines, favorite toys, treats, walk preferences and anything special the owners request. And for the dogs to be comfortable with me. I like to play with them and give them lots of TLC.

Trusted, experienced pet sitter

Pet care experience

I am a true animal lover. Our dogs and cats were members of our family. I also have experience with tropical fish, rabbits, guinea pigs, iguanas, and birds. Note: in college my study partner was a parakeet named Pippin. My friends and repeat clients trust me to stay in their homes to care for their dogs and cats whenever they need to travel. Their pets consider me to be their “Auntie”! I am reliable and a non-smoker. Fully vaccinated. I am experienced at administering medication including oral and eye drops.

Michele was great with our dogs! She stepped up at the last minute when our regular sitter had a booking issue she came over met our sitter and then sat for us the last night! So nice to have someone you can trust in your home with your babies while you go away! Thank you Michele we all look forward to having you here again!!

Michele was amazing! Her pictures clearly showed how much our cat started warming up to her and her notes helped us feel that he was super safe and cared for!

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.
