Availability

I am currently a part-time private nanny, to a bunch of different families who may need care for their little ones day a week, and my schedule is always changing from week to week so my availability will always be changing. But,I will try to keep my Rover calendar up-to-date as I hope more of you reach out! The plan is is turn this into a full-time gig so I will have probably more availability as time goes on towards the end of this year, but I’m hoping to find some regular clients that will book with me on a consistent basis! Plus, I’m really looking forward to all the pet snuggles!

Safety, trust & environment

I am always very mindful of the time for feedings and walks…any medication will be given correctly and timely…I will make sure your home is locked up after I leave from a walk and/or feeding! Please know that I will do my best to. Gain the trust of the animal! Cats too! I do highly recommend a meet & greet ahead of time so we can meet pet parents and also meet dog(s)! Let’s them see me and hopefully remember me and feel comfortable with me in their house! (*Please note: House Sitting rates apply to stays where overnight accommodations (a clean bed/space) are provided in your home. If you prefer daytime/evening visits only without overnight stays, please book via my Drop-In rates!)

Information Michelle C. would like to know about your pet

It would be very helpful for me to know any medication needs up front, feeding schedules, and any other routine ms that may make your pet more comfortable!

A typical day

I love to play with dogs or any pets really that require playtime! Love to go on walks, dog parks, fetch in your homes backyard or just anything that that they may like! Your pet is my top priority! But I am there housesitting and dog sitting for mostly weekends sometimes weekdays so I have a tendency to get into the kitchen and clean the sink or run the dishwasher and put the dishes away or you know make sure that I leave the house cleaner than I found it! And then I always leave a little thank you care package for trusting me with your home and your furry friends!

Animal lover! Every pet is special!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and love to be around all animals! I used to nanny for a family with 5 kids and they had a wonderful dog that I always helped to care for! Feeding and taking him to the groomers and vet appointments…all things that I was lucky to get to help with! I also used to care for 2 cats (both needing to take medication) and a bull dog on a daily basis! I have a Jack Russell (that just passed away) myself that I had for about 10+ years and no kids do she was my only fur baby! I have recently in the past year gotten a brand new puppy named Sugar! She is a beagle/terrier/lab mix and 25 pounds of Adorableness! She is so sweet And absolutely my little girl, as she follows me everywhere and tries to be wherever I am, and always under foot!!! She’s a little skittish and still all puppy at eight months! So I am no stranger to puppy needs at all! I also have Bella, who is a pit/beagle mix and she is a little over a year and a half old! She is 60 pounds of crazy but happy and smart and always at my husband side! What a love bug! But remember, with pets, there is no personal space! Lol I love pets of all kinds and will care for them as if they were my own! Snuggles are free!!!

Michelle was wonderful! She went over and above taking great care of our pups! The house was perfect when we got home, too, which an always a plus! She sent many pictures of the pups so we knew they were always happy and very well taken care of! I just wish there were more stars to give her!!

Michelle was amazing and so personable. She made us feel so comfortable leaving our boys with her over Christmas so we could go visit family. Michelle is very quick to respond and so easy to work and communicate with. We got lots of pictures and updates that constantly kept us in the loop on how they were doing. We will absolutely book with her again, we had a great experience!
