Highlights
Pet care experience
Critters + Nature = Bliss
I've never met a critter I didn't like, and I strive to provide the best care possible to keep everyone happy and healthy (walking, feeding, playing with, bathing, giving meds, brushing, etc). I have lived with at least one dog my whole life along with cats, bunnies, horses, fish, frogs, and most recent, a hedgehog named Quillington. Each one of them has provided me with a knowledge of how to deal with most any situation that might arise. I understand the desire to want the best for your pet and I want to provide that for you. There's nothing worse than worrying about the welfare and contentment of your critter because let's face it, they're family. Hiring me will assure that your beloved will be in the best hands possible... Pictures of them included 😉
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment with a lovely dog run on site. I am also close to many trails, parks, and cute neighborhoods, perfect for stretching the legs. I have access to a dog wash as well if interested.
Ratings and reviews
Michelle was a wonderful sitter for our senior dog scout! She had no problem giving him his meds and taking him out on his daily walks. She was extremely communicative and gave us frequent updates while we were away. Michelle left our house even cleaner than it was and I could tell our dog was super comfortable with her. I would not hesitate to book again!

Michelle was a wonderful dog and house sitter! She sent lots of photo and video updates of my dog, and I could tell that my dog had a great time with her. Michelle even laundered her sheets and towels, which she did not have to do! Would definitely recommend her services. She was also a good communicator!

Michelle was great! She took wonderful care of our pups and home and the pups loved her. We’ll definitely have her back the next time we travel.


Michelle was a life saver! We had to find a sitter that could stop by on very short notice (about a 1 week timeframe). We also requested a very early start time at 5am because we have a puppy. She went above and beyond our expectations. She spent a long time with him and our kitty in the mornings - playing, walking, feeding, and giving belly rubs! It was very clear that they were well taken care of. She is also so kind and has a warm personality. We’d recommend Michelle to anyone who wants their pet loved on and taken care of while you’re away!


If you're a first time Rover user or a worried pet parent, Michelle will put everything to ease! We had a last minute request for someone trustworthy to come watch our Mini Aussie who had been going through some anxiety issues after a recent medical scare – it was our first time leaving the house in almost three weeks so it was safe to say we were very selective on who'd be watching her. I totally understand now why Michelle has such high reviews and a handful of repeat clients (also she literally available within our last minute three hour request which was shocking). We felt so at ease when we were gone for the few hours – the questions she asked beforehand and the photos she sent during the visit were so helpful. I also think our dog picked up on her laid back yet attentive personality which our dog loved. Book Michelle!

Michelle is amazing. One of the best, if not the best, dog sitters I’ve ever had!
