PERSONALIZED PROFESSIONAL PET CARE

Pet care experience

Attn: I am currently taking dogs 50 lbs and under. I cannot adjust that on Rover, as their weight scale has a very wide gap. Their weight scale is 41-50 on Rover. Please contact me for special arrangements concerning size of pet. My name is Michelle. I offer personalized, professional pet care. I have over 30 years of experience with all types of animals. This includes medical related care, and specialized pet training. I have been in business for several years. I offer specialized pet care, to fit you and your pets needs. Pets are part of the family here! Home visits are tailored to fit the client's and their pets needs. Instructions are followed closely, and any extras that are requested, are included in the visit. PLEASE NOTE: It is noted on the site that I send only 70% of photos. This is incorrect. I text pictures directly to the pet parents phones. I find it quicker and more user friendly than the app. Home boarding offers a relaxing and comfortable home setting. Only a small number of pets stay at one time, to insure that complete and full attention is given to the pets that are staying over.Your pet's home routine is followed here. Feeding is kept separate, and all of your pets belongings are used by your pets only. Filtered water is also offered, if requested. All areas are kept clean and sanitary. I offer all natural treats, if your pet is allowed to have them. I have an extensive pet nutrition background, and have worked with pet nutrition for over ten years along with my business. I also offer nutritional counseling, and pet massage. I started this business because I love and cherish animals, and I wanted to offer the best care possible to people. I wanted to offer the kind of care that I give my own pets. Special needs pets are also welcomed, and their needs are given extra special attention. I have a medical background, and that offers our special needs pets the extra care they require. I hope that you will give Michelle the opportunity to care for your pet. Thank you for supporting small business owners! I appreciate it so very much! God bless! Prices vary by the number of pets boarded at one time. The following prices, are prices offered by Michelle, from bookings made through Rover only. Only 1-3 boarding pets allowed per household. One small to medium dog is $29. Multiple pet rates are as follows: Two small to medium dogs is $38, and three small to medium dogs is $46. One large/extra large dog is $30. The grooming service prices listed by Michelle on the Rover website, are the prices offered by bookings made through Rover. This includes any an all other prices for services offered by Michelle through the Rover website. Client references, including Vet references, are provided to all new clients. Michelle is INSURED through Pet Sitters Associates, LLC I have experience which relates to many different species of animals. This includes dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, ferrets, amphibians, and fish.

I believe that all animals are just as important as human beings, and should be treated that way. Pets are a cherished gift, companion, friend and family member.

Absolutely blown away with the care that has been provided for our Utah. Knowing that she’s going somewhere and to someone that has her best interest in mind is a relief. It’s comforting knowing the background and experience Michelle has. We are more than happy and will continue to use Michelle and her services. We picked up a very happy baby this evening❤️

Service was great! Being that this was my first experience with a dog sitter, Michelle was able to make sure that I was completely comfortable. We had a meet up before for Remy to get to know Michelle and she was so helpful with everything she even sent pictures during the stay and even helped out when I ran into issues on my trip and allowed me to schedule an unexpected extra day. Great experience!!!

Information Michelle R. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if your dog gets along with other dogs, if there is a preference you have for your dog as far as the types of other dogs he or she is compatible with during playtimes. If your dog is up to date on all vaccinations, uses flea control, is spayed or neutered, is destructive, chews, marks, digs, etc. Is nervous, shy, or temperamental.

A typical day

There will be plenty of playtime sessions inside and out. We have a spacious indoor dog play area, with rubber dog flooring, for when playtime needs to be indoors, due to weather conditions. Your dog's sleeping arrangement We will access your pet at the time of your consultation, to determine where your dog is comfortable sleeping. Time I'll spend with your dog constant care, unless I have to go outside of the home to another pet care appointment. I return to the home following the appointment.
