Pet care experience

Compassionate and empathetic sitter

While I enjoy puppies and kittens, I really enjoy caring for senior animals. My absolute favorite dog breed is the pitties. Their blocky heads with those big smiles and full body wiggles just melt my heart every time I get the opportunity to meet one. I have fostered puppies for a local dog rescue for a few years in the past and it was so fulfilling to see them go on to wonderful homes. I am still in contact with a few of my puppies new parents. It’s wonderful to see how they have grown. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, goats, ducks, birds, hamsters, rabbits, and rats. I would be honored to care for your babies if you allow me the opportunity. This is my primary occupation so other than running errands and getting my son to and from school, I will be available to compassionately care for your baby(ies). I am detail oriented in following your baby’s schedule for food and potty breaks. I am able to crate as needed. I enjoy getting to know your baby and adapting to their personality and needs. For overnight care, I enjoy a cuddle just as much as they do so dog-pile (or cat-pile) in the bed is not an issue. For drop-in care I will take time to cuddle and connect with your baby. I have full conversations with them as we go about our tasks. It’s amazing how much they understand and can communicate back.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your pet as my own while I am caring for them. I prefer written instructions so I can keep them as close to their normal schedule as possible. My goal is to provide you peace of mind while you are away that your babies are well taken care of.

Absolutely! If this is for a Rover review, I’d make it more focused on the service she provides: Michelle has been helping care for my little dog for the past three years, and I cannot recommend her enough. There have been many times when I’ve needed help at the last minute, and she has always been willing to step in and help out. She is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I trust her completely—not only with my dog, but with my home as well. Knowing my dog is with Michelle gives me total peace of mind. My little dog absolutely loves her, and I am so grateful for the care, attention, and kindness she provides every time. If you’re looking for someone dependable and caring to watch your pet, Michelle is the best. She truly has been a lifesaver for me and my furry friend! ❤️🐾⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Michelle is AMAZING! During our meet & great we talked for hours as she got to know us & my dogs, it felt like I was talking with an old friend. Unfortunately I'd lost my 14yr old dog prior to us leaving the country. I felt at ease knowing that my sweet baby was getting special attention after losing my dog. She sent several pictures & videos with every visit! In every picture my baby was happy & receiving so much attention. She also was so kind to bring in all my mail. I definitely recommend Michelle & will have her take care of my furry baby anytime!

Michelle was amazing. She sent us pictures and videos of Georgia while we were gone. It’s like we were still home with her. We will definitely be using her again. I would highly recommend her.
