Trusted, loving, playful sitter

I am back!!! After taking a few months off, I am now able to come back to do what I love most & that is to take care of your pups! 🐶 ❤️. Unfortunately, I lost my Star ⭐️ Sitter Status, but I will work hard to get that back! I was active on Rover for over a year, until I had to go inactive. As you can see, I have a lot of amazing reviews. I also take care of dogs, who aren’t on Rover, as they found me through friends. I have taken care of neighbors and friend’s dogs for years. I am able to administer eye & ear drops, as well as give medication.

Safety, trust & environment

As of now, the services I offer are dog walking, drop in visits & house sitting in your home. My goal while house sitting for your pups, is to make the transition as easy as possible when you need to leave your fur babies home. I will do my best to keep them on the routine/schedule that they are accustomed to. I try to be as flexible as possible while spending as much time with them to help them become more comfortable with me. I am more than ok if your dog needs to sleep in bed with me. I also will make sure that when you come home, that you wouldn’t even know that I was there. Everything will be as clean as you left it, I bring my own food & beverages, I remove my own garbage, I bring my own pillow & blankets. So not only will you come home to a happy fur baby (babies), but a clean home so you are able to come home & just relax & spend time with your pup (s)! I provide numerous pics & updates daily. I am able to provide numerous references as well. If you are looking to book for an extended period of time, I do prefer to spend some time (possible overnight) with your fur baby, as a trial run to make sure it’s not just a good fit for me, but a good fit for you & your pup! Meet & Greets for overnights are definitely a requirement for me.

Michele is an absolute dream! My husband and I booked her for a weekend to watch our senior Basset Hound, Lady, and she made us (and Lady) feel SO at ease. Lady is older and needs medication, so we're always nervous leaving her with other people, but Michele really did such an amazing job with her. She sent us tons of updates throughout the weekend—photos, detailed reports on how everything was going, etc. We felt very comfortable knowing Lady was in such good hands. Michele even went as far as keeping the exact (quite detailed lol) routine we have for Lady and accepted all her quirks with open arms. She really went above and beyond for us. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog as much as you do while you're away, book Michele!

Michele and her family took amazing care of our dog, Freddie, during her two-week stay. Freddie was treated like a true member of the family and formed a sweet bond with their dog, Willow—who is an absolute gem. The two played nonstop and clearly enjoyed each other’s company. We also really appreciated the regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Now, every time Freddie sees Michele, she gets so excited. If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog like their own, Michele is the one!

Schedule

I currently work maybe 15 - 20 hrs/week - @ 4-5/hrs per shift - however if I know far enough in advance, there’s some flexibility with my schedule.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Michele can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I appreciate communication on what’s important for not only your pup, but for you! Do you want pics & videos? What does your dog love & where do they like to sleep?!? Are they territorial about their toys & food? Any food allergies? Are they reactive to thunder, fireworks, other dogs/cats/humans…
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.
