Pet care experience
I've grown up with animals (1 dog, 5 cats) throughout my life and adore the kind companionship they offer. When I was in middle school 2 friends and myself started a dog walking business and donated all proceeds to the SPCA. I also used to pet/house sit for a couple different neighbors in my community as a kid. Since graduating college and the passing of my dear cat Lily a few years ago (whom I had since I was 12), I have not been a pet owner due to rental situations and the desire to travel & explore the world. I so deeply miss having animals in my life and would love the opportunity to be able to interact with them again more regularly.
Reviews
We've used Michelle multiple times and she's been great each time.
I've used Michelle several times now to feed my cats. She's been awesome, makes sure they have food and fresh water. We definitely will use her again!
Michelle is very punctual and trustworthy. She is attentive to my dog Penelope and makes sure she is well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Michelle for pet sitting/walking.
This was the first time Michelle did a drop in for me. Not only did she take great care of my pets, my normally shy cats felt comfortable enough to come out and say hi! We'll definitely use Michelle again!

Safety, trust & environment
While I won't be caring for pets in my own home, I am happy to comply with whatever pet care protocols you currently have in place or would like to have in place while away.
Information Michelle M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special needs, conditions, or preferences your dog has that I need to be aware of so I can make an informed decision about whether I am the best suitable sitter/walker.
A typical day
Fun activities like exploring the neighborhood, playing fetch or frisbee at the local park or grassy areas, squirrel watching (hehe), and of course lots of cuddles!
Services
Michelle can watch in your home
Availability
I recently started my own online coaching business so I have some freedom & flexibility with my schedule. I also work as a server at a local wine bar MWF so there are some limitations on those specific days in terms of visit timing and frequency. I would love to find some local furry companions to walk or sit for. I am available for walks and drop-in Tues, Thurs, Sat & Sun. I am also open to house sitting while you are out of town, but may need to be gone 6-7hrs some days if I am working.
