Pet care experience

Pets are the true heroes

I’ve taken care of cats and dogs from my earliest memories. I grew up with cats, at least 1 cat at all times. Do you identify as a “crazy cat lady”? Well my dad is a “crazy cat man” and he would always bring home strays he found working graveyard shifts as a security guard. I had a beagle as my first dog as a teenager. I found a soft spot for chihuahuas in my twenties. I’m a certified crystal healer (if you’ve heard of Reiki, it’s very similar). I do energy healings for people and their pets too. Connecting with animals is such a special thing, but I can’t have animals in building, so caring for your pet is a service to me as much as it is for you.

Safety, trust & environment

How I care for pets in a clients home is being respectful of the animal and the home primarily. My background is working with small children and like children, animals can take a while to feel comfortable around someone new. I don’t mind taking that time for us to get acquainted to build trust.

Michelle was wonderful with my dog callie! Michelle was able to coax Callie out of her shyness and gave her the love and attention that she needs. Michelle was communicative and responsive and regularly sent me pics of my baby. I'd definitely rebook her again?

Michelle was fantastic with our cat. He’s normally quite shy but warmed up to her quickly! Would definitely ask her to sit again.

Schedule

I’m a professional dancer and make my own hours. Fitting in pet care will be easy since my weekly work routine is flexible, although spending time with pets doesn’t feel like work as much as fun!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Michelle can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should watch out for. Your pet’s safety and health are priority one. For dogs with anxiety/that need constant supervision: there will be an extra hourly charge in addition to the standard rate.
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.
