Pet care experience

Yale graduate turned dog sitter :)

I grew up chasing stray dogs around my neighborhood and sheltering them as long as possible before helping them find a new home! I grew up with 5 dogs (2 being huskies). I am active and love going on walks and would love a doggies company before i get one of my own!

Our dogs really enjoy staying with Michelle! She is very nice and seems to take really good care of them. She takes them for exercise but doesn’t over-do it, and she follows our sometimes complicated feeding instructions. We get cute pictures from her throughout the stay, and if they have any issues (like upset tummy), she lets us know right away. Michelle is our go-to person for boarding the dogs!
