Highlights
Pet care experience
ATL Pet Whisperer: Travel & Tails!
With over 15 years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits—and even ran my own dog park in New Orleans (where the dogs loved me more than their owners!). I’m a former pet foster parent, and while I relate better to animals than humans, I do have 2 human kids of my own. My true love is travel, and I’ve brought my Pickleball paddle along as I pet sit my way through the rest of 2024. As a self-proclaimed ‘Pet Whisperer,’ I capture pets' best moments with stunning photos and videos that’ll make pet parents wonder if their fur babies are secretly models. My glowing reviews on Trusted House Sitters back it all up, so if you want someone who loves your pets like family, I’m your sitter!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When I provide overnight pet sitting in a client's home, my primary goal is to maintain the pet's routine and environment as closely as possible. I follow the pet's established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication needs, ensuring consistency and comfort. By staying in their familiar surroundings, pets are less likely to experience stress or anxiety while their owners are away. I make sure to give them plenty of attention, whether it’s through play, cuddles, or just being a calming presence. I also keep the home secure and well-maintained, handling tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and making sure the home stays tidy. My commitment is to ensure that both the pet and the home are well-cared for, providing peace of mind for the owner. With my experience and dedication, I create a worry-free experience, so pet owners can relax knowing their pets are happy and their home is in good hands
Ratings and reviews
Lulu said it was a blast
Michelle is one of the best dog sitter’s we have ever had. She loves our Bentley!!! Whenever Michelle comes around, he goes straight to her and doesn’t want to be bothered with us. He knows he is going to get lots of cuddle time and belly rubs. If you are looking for someone who you can trust, Michelle is the person. Your fur baby will be taken care of. We have no worries about Bentley when he’s with Michelle. We know 100% our Bentley Boy will be taken care of.
Michelle is an amazing and thoughtful person as well as a responsible pet owner. She is the kindest human I know and I would trust her with my life, family or pets. She is also very business savvy. Always looking to create something desperately needed in her community. It she has a business you’re considering, take advantage. You won’t be disappointed!

Schedule
Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine, ensuring that each pet I care for receives consistent attention and affection. As someone who works from home and values flexibility, I’m able to adapt my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I care for, whether it's regular walks, playtime, or administering medication. My mornings typically start with feeding and morning walks, followed by midday check-ins or play sessions, and I often incorporate additional activities like Pickleball, where I might bring along a furry friend if appropriate. Evenings are reserved for winding down with some quiet cuddle time or a final walk, ensuring each pet feels safe and loved throughout the day. This structure allows me to provide the highest level of care and ensures that each pet's routine is maintained, keeping them happy and comfortable while their owners are away
