Trustworthy and loving pet sitter!

Pet care experience

My name is Michele and I have had numerous dogs since I was a child and love them all. I am trustworthy, loving, and punctual! I have walked and dog sat friend's dogs and have 2 cute dogs of my own currently. I have done dog walking to home visits, including administering medicine, feeding, and play time. I will keep your dog safe and under control on walks as well as have much time for play during a dog drop in visit. I have had 3 dachshunds, one currently and a black lab mix growing up, so I have experience with different size dogs, but love them all.My dog Pixie is actually a doxie/chihuahua however she passed from cancer.My recent addition is a lab mix which is estimated to be 40-50lbs when full grown.My current job schedule has changed and I am only available mostly weekends until the summer comes. I look forward to hearing from you about your pet care needs!

Michelle was fabulous and took great care of our dogs. I highly recommended her and would absolutely trust her with our beloved pets.

I can't recommend Michele enough. She was originally supposed to look after my cat for 2 weeks but ended up watching her for almost a month when our trip was extended. Michele checked in daily with pictures and comments and even went out of her way to pick up a new bag of litter and food from the store. She's extremely dependable and trustworthy and really cared for Kitty. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will continue to hire her to watch my animals.

This was my first time using Rover and I had very good luck with Michele as my cat sitter. She is very reliable and good with communication. I would definitely recommend her and plan to hire her again!

Michele is amazing with my dog Leo. He is a medium-sized dog who barks and growls at other dogs, so it takes some maneuvering and care to walk him. Michele does this and everything else beautifully. She is a reliable, hard-working animal lover. I am very lucky to have found her.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not offer pet boarding in my home but I love to take care of others in their home. I think it's important to follow the owner's instructions so the pet can feel as comfortable as possible.

Information Michele D. would like to know about your pet

I always like to know if they have any allergies. I like to know if they are on any medications, or if there is something special I need to do for them. I always need to know where they go to the vet in case of an emergency.

A typical day

I really enjoy watching dogs while I walk them. They find everything so exciting and love to smell everything. I make sure they are safe and always pick up their "presents!"

I would be lost if a day comes where I am not caring for a pet. Animals make my life whole. I cannot imagine being in a world without them! I can mostly do pet care on the weekends since I work during the week depending on the need.
