I'll love your dog like my own

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Michelle - I work in economic consulting and love dogs! I grew up w dogs, fostered dogs, and pet sit for friends when they are out of town. I have experience caring for and exercising different dogs from teacup cockapoos to Great Danes! Recently I moved to a pet friendly apartment building near the UN and got my own dog - Abby - a friendly, gentle, and energetic Manchester terrier mix. She loves to share her superfluous quantity of toys and balls. We live near a dog park so we visit the park and take plenty of walks during the day. My work allows me to work from home so the pups are rarely unsupervised. Rest assured your dog will be treated and accommodated for as if he/she were my own!

Michelle was an excellent sitter for Cali! She sent a ton of pictures and videos and I knew she was well taken care of the whole time. Cali has separation anxiety and Michelle made sure she was never alone. She also was careful to introduce Cali and Abby slowly in the apartment and it seemed like they got along well. I felt like Michelle gave Cali the same care she would give her own dog. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch sitter.

Literally BEST dogsitter I have ever had for my pup Pika! And we’ve gone through 10+ sitters on Rover so that says a LOT. Pika was with Michelle for a week and had the best time of his life while my bf and I were away. Michelle asked a bunch of thoughtful questions prior to the stay to make sure that we covered all the quirks Pika has (he has a lot). Communication was always fast and thorough. During the stay, I can honestly say that my pup was spoiled as HECK. She sent me daily pics and videos multiple times a day, gave him healthy treats, showered him with more toys than I even have at home, kept him on his walk schedule, and most importantly, maintained his grooming needs. Pika can be a handful which is why I’m always nervous finding a sitter, but wow Michelle made it seem so effortless! She genuinely took the time to get to know him and his personality. Not all sitters do that. I could tell that Pika had a special bond with them and that he really enjoyed his stay with them. Michelle and her bf are one of a kind sitters!! Love them so much :)
