Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, caring, and flexible care
Hello! I am an animal lover who has recently relocated to the SD area. I regularly have sat for family, friends, and word of mouth recommendations for over a decade. I have cared for pets as small as tree frogs to a home with multiple large pit bull mixes, to a diabetic cat in need of insulin injections twice a day. Whatever type of pet you have I promise to love them as much as I love my own!
Cat care experience
Michelle also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced back yard for your animal to run around in. I would keep your pet in the living room and kitchen are with me while I leave the bedrooms for my cat. I love going on walks so I will be more than happy to take your dogs out with me ( no dog parks or off leash areas).
Ratings and reviews
Michelle took great care of Gadget and Lulu! Didn't come across any anxiety destruction and they were calm when I came back to them
Michelle is an incredible person to leave your animals with! She gave us great updates with photos, and was even able to alter plans because of flight problems we had. I never worry when my doggo is with her- thank you Michelle!!
I think this is the 3rd time we’ve hired Michelle to look after our cat. She is incredibly detail oriented and dependable, and her after-visit summaries are thorough and include lots of pictures. Go in confidence!
Michelle was reliable, communicative, and on time. she took fantastic care of our pets and we have nothing but great things to say!
Michelle was wonderful with our boy! She was responsive and available, and kept us updated every day with pictures and a recap of how his day went. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
Michelle is so prompt and great with communication and I feel very comfortable having my senior dog go on walks with her! She was able to accommodate my late notice request which was so appreciated :)

Schedule
I am currently at home full time. I regularly take walks to get out of the house and would love to have a companion join me! I love animals and couldn’t imagine spending my day in a better way than with them! I do have my own cat which means for multi day jobs I would occasionally want to visit her (my partner is there to care for her) but I am available to spend majority of the time at a clients home.
