Pet care experience

I am an all-around animal lover, and make an emphasis on stress-free pet care. Before moving to Alaska, I cared for dogs and cats at an animal shelter in Long Island, NY called Bobbi & the Strays. Working with rescues gave me a lot of skills and experience with dogs and cats that have special medical and behavioral needs. I previously worked at Dog Tired Doggie Daycare in Midtown, and worked with groups that vary in size and energy level to help them form social bonds with other dogs in class, and to enforce obedience and good behavior through positive reinforcement. I currently work with the Alaska SPCA at their adoption center in South Anchorage, caring for dogs and cats while matching them with adoptive homes. My loving cat Mingus has also been gracious enough to share his home with me for the last eight years (and counting!). That being said, I am also available for cat sitting services.

Michelle is a wonderful animal caregiver and sitter. She was responsible for house sitting and caring for my pet Fred , and he was well fed and cared for while I was out of town for a week.

Michelle is great with animals and very responsible. Whenever my wife and I traveled, she was always available to come and dog sit for us. She was even willing to take them into her home for extended stays. The boys loved her and we never had a monent's worry if she was in charge. Thanks, Michelle!

Information Michelle E. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, just please let me know if the dog is high energy, has any injuries or conditions that I need to be aware of, or if they do not interact well with people/children/other dogs. If your dog needs time to bond with new people, we may want to take some time for your dog to get comfortable with me before I care for your dog when you are away.

A typical day

Generally I would take dogs to the nearest park. I love fetch, tug-o-war and anything that will keep both of us active. If the dog plays well with other dogs, I would also let them play in the dog park (if there is one close by), though I probably wouldn't take them to the dog park until I've walked the dog and know that they interact well with others.
