Amazing pet care while you are away

Pet care experience

I grew up having dogs and watching neighbor dogs. I had my first dog sitting job when I was 15 and realized that caring for somebody else's pet like they were my own is a special skill I possess. I have been working as a house/pet sitter since I moved to Colorado over 5 years ago. I do not live in a place where I can have pets of my own so it makes me really happy to get to spend time with other people's! I love to hike and be outside and feel like having a dog around enhances that. I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own!

I had a terrible dog sitting experience about 2 weeks prior to my stay so I was super anxious to leave my dogs again. Michelle put me at ease the day of the meet and greet and ensured that I would not have a rerun of the experience I had prior. She is an awesome sitter; she kept the house in order, she followed all of my instructions, she gave them attention, plenty of potty breaks, and was patient with my crazy dogs. I've found my go to sitter finally!

Michelle took care of our two pups while we were on vacation and she did a fantastic job. I’m so glad we found someone trustworthy, reliable and kind to take care of our fur babies. I highly recommend her and I will be booking her again in the future!

I highly recommend Michelle! She is sogreat! Our 6 month old puppy and two cats absolutely loved her and she had everything covered while we were away. She gave daily updates, asked great questions and made us feel totally at ease. We even came back to a cleaner house than when we left with the guest sheets and towels washed. Michelle went above and beyond and we are very grateful for her excellent care of our animals.

I do not care for pets in my home unfortunately. I am happy to do drop ins or come to your house to take your dog for a walk!

Information Michelle R. would like to know about your pet

I will come for a meet and greet before you leave for your trip so I can get to know where everything is and learn your regular schedule. Any details such as what time your dog usually goes out in the morning to what their favorite toys are, are really important for me!

A typical day

I make sure to keep your dog's schedule as close to the same as what it normally would be as possible. If your dog enjoys hikes and longer walks I am happy to do that with them (I love hikes too!)

Availability

I am a student at MSU Denver and have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays for 3 hours. I also am a Massage Therapist but work for myself so I only schedule about 1 client per day. Because my schedule is so flexible I can plan to be with your pets for the majority of the day!
