Pet care experience

The best experience is life experience! My two rescues Lenny (potcake) and Hank (beagle) keep me on my toes. I have cared for senior dogs all the way down to puppies and could do the same for you! I am always learning, but the bottom line is I love animals! I am very detail oriented and committed to creating a positive experience for you and your fur children. I am patient and attentive and when it comes to pet care the bark stops here! *I am Red Cross First Aid/CPR certified for both cats and dogs! *I am working toward my Fear Free certification.

Michelle was wonderful. My pup is funny with new people but was immediately comfortable with Michelle which says A LOT! I will definitely be using Michelle again!

Michelle is incredibly professional and attentive, making sure my furry friends felt comfortable and loved while I was away. She always provided regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Michelle if you want someone who will love on your babies as much as you do.

I’ve known Michelle since high school and have seen her love and care for her pets her whole life. I can honestly say she is one of the most compassionate and dedicated dog owners I’ve ever met. She has owned three dogs over the years (Millie, Lenny and Hank), and I’ve seen firsthand how much love and care she pours into them. Her passion for pets is truly remarkable and she always makes sure her dogs are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I have no doubt she will bring the same level of commitment and attention to any dog she looks after on Rover. She is dependable, loving, and knowledgeable, and any dog would be lucky to have her as their caregiver!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
