Pet care experience

Your best friend is in GREAT hands!

Hi, I’m Michelle! As a lifelong animal lover with over 16 years of hands-on pet care experience, I understand that every pet is unique and deserves personalized attention, patience, and lots of love. I’m also a proud dog mom to Stevie, my adventure buddy who joins me on weekly hikes and keeps me active outdoors. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit, or attentive in-home sitting, you can count on me to treat them like one of my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to find someone you trust, and I look forward to providing dependable, loving care for your furry family member.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, exercise needs, and any special requests. If participating in daycare, my home has a fully fenced yard and is located just minutes from Larkey Park, providing a safe environment for play, exercise, and enrichment.

Michelle took such great care of Arya and Tayto our two Scottish Folds! She was so sweet to them and sent lots of adorable pictures of our fur babies! Thank you so much Michelle!

Michelle was a total pleasure to work with. Super professional and really great with our [very shy] kittens. We got pictures and a detailed "report card" every day which put us at ease and really allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We definitely hope to use her in the future!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 11, 2018

My dog Luna had a wonderful time with Michelle, her dog and cat! She gave me lots of updates throughout the day and her dog played so nicely with Luna! When I picked her up in the evening she seemed like she was very happy to have played all day! I would definitely have Michelle watch Luna again in the future!

Michelle is a smart, capable, trustworthy, and caring individual who has never let an animal in need down. She has taken care of her own pets to the fullest for their whole lives, including expensive medical and time-consuming care they required towards the end. She has taken in other people's pets when they could not care for them any longer. And she has even found homes for abandoned pets. But most relevant here is that Michelle has babysat my Chloe Beagle Bug many times over the years when I've been in a jam, and I always have peace of mind knowing that Chloe is with someone that truly loves her - and receiving the text updates to prove it.

Michelle has taken care of my dogs numerous times when I've gone out of town. I'm a very paranoid dog mom and don't trust my fur-babies with just anyone. Michelle provides a safe and loving home environment for them while I'm gone. I have one dog on medication, and I know she's in good hands with Michelle. It's great knowing that they're with someone I can trust in a comfortable environment instead of a stressful kennel. Michelle is a wonderful and reliable pet sitter, I recommend her services.

Michelle is an animal lover if I ever meet one. She has taken care of both of my pet dogs, which are more like family than pets to me, and been very responsible on each occasion. He love for animals shine through and can be seen in her interaction with the animals. The biggest sign however is how my dogs react when ever they see her. They go nuts just like they do when I come home from work. This type of behavior is reserved only their favorite humans and Michelle definitely is one of them.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and house sitting throughout the week.

I always appreciate learning as much as possible about your pet before our first visit. A meet-and-greet is ideal so I can get to know their personality, routines, likes and dislikes, and any special needs. Please let me know about medications, allergies, fears, reactivity, behavioral quirks, or anything else that helps me provide the best possible care and keep your pet safe and comfortable.
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.
