All animals welcomed and loved!

Pet care experience

I am a lover of all animals and have always had more than one pet in my home growing up! My very first job was as a dog walker for two big black labs when I was eleven years old and my love for pet sitting only grew from there. I've had experience in pet sitting for all kinds of animals including cats, dogs (big and small), snakes, rabbits, and guinea pigs. My apartment has a patio for pets to enjoy a little outside space, including a big tree right outside for kitties to bird watch. The apartment also backs up to tons of dog friendly hiking trails! I'm very low key and spend most of my time relaxing at home or going for walks and hikes. I work graveyard shifts only three or four nights a week which allows me lots of extra time throughout the week to spend with your pet. Pet sitting has been a joy of mine since I was a child and doing it to make a little pocket money. I continue to do it even with a full time job because it's a way to continue to spend time with animals while also making extra-money to care for my own sweet kitty! I would be thrilled to watch your furry companion while you're away!

Luckily we found Michelle right before our holiday vacation to take care of our cat. She responded very quickly and the whole process is extremely smooth. She took a very good care of our cat and gave us an update everyday. This is my first time using Rover and working with Michelle. I am quite satisfied and would love to come back in future.

Information Michelle S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, however I prefer a dog that would not bark all day because I have neighbors and housemates to consider. Also, since I have a cat at home I would like to know if they have a history for being aggressive or too playful around cats so I can plan ahead of time to keep them separated.

A typical day

A dog would enjoy a walk along the beach or on one of many hiking trails behind my apartment if they were to stay with me. A little tug of war (depending on condition of dogs teeth) is also a game I'm always up for playing! If they want, a dog is also always welcome to hop up on my bed and cuddle at my feet at night just like my dog always did back in my hometown.
