I have had previous experience walking dogs and dog sitting puppies! Dogs are always so sweet so I’d love to help care for other’s pets.

Very dependable cat sitter with great communication. I appreciated the frequent updates and photos, and my cat seemed comfortable and happy.

Michelle has taken care of my cat before and my cat always comes home happy, well taken care of, and healthy. I would leave him with her again.

Schedule

I work mostly remotely, doing computer work at Columbia University, so I can work from anywhere. Therefore I can keep cats lots of company during the day, and make sure they are comfortable. Or check-in on your pets at your place/ provide walks through out the day for dogs.

A typical day

Pets and daily grooming is a must! Lots of outdoor time and walks. The semi regular deserved and undeserved treats. As well as carefully prepared meals :) And some cuddles while reading our watching tv. And toy time to get out the zoomies
