Dog Walking • Sep 10, 2026

I think my dog, Toby, likes Michelle more than me these days! But seriously. Michelle has been an outstanding caregiver to my German Shepherd. Toby is 10, stubborn, and disabled, so finding someone I can trust is key. Having to be in the office a few days a week has added a lot of new stress lately. At least I know Toby's in good hands when I'm not home. Thank Michelle for all that you do!

Michelle is fantastic! She communicates well, always lets me know when she arrives and sends the cutest pictures. She is super dependable and trustworthy. We also have an escape artist cat, and she’s always super careful to not let him get out. She truly goes above and beyond. I’m so glad that we’ve been able to book her on multiple occasions!! Maverick is happy too!

Michelle is an amazing pup support! My husband and I are grateful for her help with Lady. She shows extra care knowing Lady is blind and older—that goes a long way. Michelle is always communicative with us and sends the sweetest photos of our girl. Truly the best ❤️🐶

Drop-In Visits • Aug 24, 2026

Michelle is absolutely amazing and does a great job. She has been taken care of Tyson for a very long time. I feel completely comfortable with her in and out of my home when I am not there. Tyson loves her and that is the main thing. She’s respectable of your home and she’s very on-time and professional. Out of all the Rovers I’ve used Michelle is absolutely hands-down my favorite.

House Sitting • Jul 27, 2026

As opposed to the first 2 Rover visits, I received very few pictures and updates from Michelle. The cats liter boxes did not appear they were cleaned at all as I came home Sunday night to two liter boxes full of cat feces. I need to use your service again this weekend and unfortunately will not be booking Michelle again. I will still leave a tip because that is the right thing to do, but if this would have been my first Rover experience I would not have used your company again. Not trying to be mean, just being honest as I was disappointed in the lack of communication and the condition the cats area was left in. Scott Young
