Pet care experience

Friendly Phoenix Housesitter!

I’m a 30-something currently working full time 8:30-5:30 during the week, so I primarily house-sit for clients and do better with pets that are okay with being home for the work day. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs, primarily large. I grew up around Rottweilers and German Shepherds, but love dogs of all breeds and sizes. Am also a fan of cats and am happy to keep them company while you’re away. I’m generally quick to respond to messages even if I’m not the best fit for your family. I hope you’ll consider me for your future pet care needs. I can be flexible with my rates as needed, please send me a message with your needs if interested.

Michelle did such a great job with my kitten, Chazzie. He took an immediate liking to Michelle! I felt completely at ease having Michelle Chaz/house sit. Well done, Michelle!

Michelle did an excellent job house/cat sitting for me over the weekend. She communicated when she was going to be there, sent picture updates every day. I would rebook with Michelle in a heartbeat!

Schedule

I work 8:30-5:30 in downtown Tempe so your pets will receive love early in the morning and again when I return to your home. I do best with pets that are used to being home/crated during the day.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Michelle can host up to 1 drop-in per day
Important information to convey would just be their daily schedule. Feeding times. Average length of walks and frequency. If they are okay with other dogs/people/kids so I can keep that in mind while walking.
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.
