Pet care experience

Passion for animals

I have helped my mom run an at-home doggie daycare/boarding service for 8 years now. As well as working part time at Dogtopia! I love spending time and taking care of dogs! Growing up with 4 dogs in our home at all times, now that I am an adult I have two of my own doggies! A pitbull mix and mini poodle mix, both 6 years old :) ❤️ I walk doggies in the community around me and I would love to do it more often! For my cat lovers, I have a three year old grey Korat kitty named Harley!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize the well-being of every pet by providing a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, including feedings, medications, sleeping instructions, & any special requirements. I enjoy giving pets playtime, affection, walks, potty breaks, and enrichment while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Overnight stays, I maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel loved and secure in their home!

Michelle was able to come to the house to meet our boy before confirming which helped ease our anxiety of leaving him. She house sat for us since our boy doesn't like to be alone at night. Captain had a great time with Michelle. She fixed his blankets for him and loved on him. Thanks so much Michelle!

This is the second time I have trusted Michelle to care for my two cats while away. Neither of my babies have shown stress upon my return and my home was cared for, which speaks to the level of care! I greatly appreciate the up dates Michelle provides. I will choose Michelle for my future cat care needs.

Michelle watched our dog when we had to leave town last minute. We appreciated knowing someone was giving him love and care while we were gone! Thanks Michelle!

Schedule

I have a dog, a cat, and a leopard gecko of my own, so animals have always been a big part of my life. I work full-time at Dogtopia in Indianapolis, where I care for dogs in daycare, boarding, and spa services. Since I work a varying schedule each week, my availability can change depending on my work hours. I also have experience helping run an in-home dog daycare and boarding service with my mother through Rover. I was born and raised in the Greenwood/Indianapolis area and still call it home. I love meeting new people and their pets, and I provide reliable, attentive, and loving care for every animal I work with.
