Your pup/cat & I will be BFFs!
Pet care experience
Please read my entire profile to ensure we are a good match! My passion for dogs comes from growing up with a beautiful Lhasa Apso (in my profile picture!). While she is no longer with us, I see parts of her in every pup I dog sit and it always brings me joy. I promise that I care for your pups & cats as if they were my own. I provide daily updates and photos of how your dog/cat is doing and am always available to answer any questions. I do work full-time Monday-Friday in the Barclays Center area so I’m able to get home quickly to take your pup out for a walk and spend the rest of the evening together. If you need someone to be home full-time with your pet, I’m not the right choice for you. I live in South Slope with my cats, Puma and Rosita, and my 7 lb Lhasa Apso, Lolita, who is a year old. My apartment is a bit small (photos in my gallery) and at this time I can only accept small dogs about 20 lbs and below and I will only take one dog/cat at a time. My apartment is in a walk up building, up two flights of stairs (photo in my gallery). I understand that this may not be accessible for every person and pup so please keep this in mind when considering me as your sitter. I'm fully vaccinated, happy to wear a mask and am available to meet in the neighborhood for a meet & greet to learn more about your dog and their needs. I’m also open to having a virtual meet and greet through the video option on the Rover app or even FaceTime. My brother Daniel and I live together so there will be an extra set of eyes to help watch over your furbaby. He works as a dog handler at a doggy daycare and is certified in pet CPR. Regardless, I will still be the primary caretaker of your pet and you will be meeting and communicating with me.
Reviews
Took excellent care of my cat, sent daily updates. Kind and professional. Thanks Michelle !
Michelle was great! She was thankfully available last minute before a three day weekend and she really put me at ease leaving my dog with a new person. I got daily photo updates and she was incredibly kind and responsive in our communication. I'd definitely book a stay for my dog again in the future.
Michelle is always quick to respond to messages, sends frequent and helpful updates throughout the day, and is very friendly and professional with her care for my dog. Would definitely recommend!
Michelle is very sweet and professional. We love her!!

Safety, trust & environment
I’m always careful when entering or leaving the apartment to ensure that no pup is following me. I also do not let pups roam into another room unsupervised. I want to be sure that they don't chew on something that may be harmful.
Home
Information Michelle H. would like to know about your pet
I would like total breakdown of who your dog is, the do's and don'ts. I’d like to know if they have any aggressive tendencies as safety is my #1 priority. Finally, I would want vet contact info and an emergency contact in case of any accidents.
A typical day
Your pup and I will go on long walks around the neighborhood at least 3 times a day. While indoors, we’ll be sure to get lots of play and cuddle time.

Availability
I work FT during the week nearby so I’m able to take your dog out for a nice morning walk and spend time together. I’m home by 5:30pm which allows us to spend the evening together. Weekends I’m available to spend the full days with your dog/cat.
