Availability

Currently, I’m not accepting vacation stays for dogs (3 drop-in visits per day) unless another sitter is also assigned for the week to help cover visits. I'm available between 11:30am-9pm for drop-in visits to your smoke-free and fragrance-free* home. Pet-sitting will be the only out-of-home gig I’ll be working on when I’m pet-sitting for you. *Fragrance plug-ins, diffusers, sprays, etc. Out of town assignments may have an additional travel fee.

Safety, trust & environment

I will provide my full attention to your pets while I'm visiting with them. I am gentle with pets and refrain from using unnecessary force (e.g. no yelling, swatting, or yanking on the leash). I can practice commands your pet knows, as needed ('sit' for food, door, etc).

Information Michelle H. would like to know about your pet

It’s good to know about your pet’s likes and dislikes, so I try to discuss this and other things to get to know your pet when we meet. If there are any behavior or health issues, please let me know before meeting. A week’s notice is suggested for setting up a meet—and-greet, which should be at least a week before the needed sitting.

A typical day

I will check on all animals in the household, providing attention to them, and adjust lights and put out the trash if needed. I like to have dogs do tricks for treats and have cats play a little during at least one visit in the day.

Pet care experience

I'm looking for pet sitting clients in Niles, Ohio (and nearby). I enjoy taking care of animals and will provide honest and reliable service! I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs and have cared for pets since childhood. I can pet-sit small, medium, and some large dogs (e.g. golden retrievers, poodles or mixes thereof, female labs, and more).

"Meet and Greet" went very well! So thankful that I found her through Rover. She sent updates and pictures which was very much appreciated. Will not hesitate to contact her again to become a repeat customer. Michelle H. was great!

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.
