Miss having an animal in the house
Pet care experience
I have almost always had animals in my life and home. I recently lost my deaf boxer who was my best friend for the last 11 years. Along with her I had another dog and 2 cats so I am used to a full house of animals. I also worked at a humane society for almost 3 years, leading the cleaning, feeding, dog training, as well as overseeing the matching and adoption process and am comfortable with giving medications.
Reviews
Michelle is a TRUE dog lover! As soon as I met her, I felt relief and knew that my dog was going to be in great hands. And it turned out to be true! Michelle works from home a lot of the time, which was great because my dog was able to be showered with attention and love. She sent me pictures throughout the stay and kept in contact. I 100% recommend her, but only when I don’t need her😜 because I will definitely be booking with her again in the future if needed! THANK YOU, MICHELLE!!!🧡
Michelle was very communicative and friendly! Hazel loved staying with her!
Michelle would be a wonderful pet sitter! She's been my friend for several years and I took care of her dog(s) on many occasions while she was out of town, and I know first hand how much she loves her pets and that she will do whatever is necessary to make sure they are happy and healthy. But she recently had to say goodbye to her old dog as it was her time, and now finds herself without at least one dog or cat for the first time in almost two decades. I don't think she's ready to get another pet just yet as the loss is still new, but she is also missing the companionship of having a dog around. Michelle's job is quite flexible too, in that she does not have a strict timeline, works from home part time and can often pick what days those are, and is only a 10 minute drive away from her office when she does go in. I definitely recommend Michelle as a fellow Rover sitter. She loves animals and has the time and lots of love to give.

Safety, trust & environment
I have always and will continue to always only take dogs out on a leash as my yard is not fenced. I am always very aware of my surroundings to make sure myself and animals are safe.

Information Michelle O. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any special needs I am very comfortable with that, and giving medications, etc. My last dog was deaf, so I have experience with that and was also sure to move to the opposite side of the road when other dogs were out walking as she did not do well with some other dogs. I was always thinking about her and other dogs safety.
A typical day
Just let me know how your dog likes to play. My most recent dog didn't really care for toys, but did love playing fetch with her bone. If your dogs enjoy trips to the dog park, or just walks around the neighborhood, that works great for me too.
