“Elle is enthusiastic and compassionate in her approach. She takes the time to get to know you and your pet. She even gave me some great advice on a potty issue with my cat!! I also have 4 feral cats that she made sure had food and water so I didn’t have to worry about leaving them. I will certainly be calling on Elle again!!?❤️?????”
“Mychelle was amazing dropping in and taking our 3 French Bulldogs out for a walk and potty break this week. She was on time and sent a video and multiple pics each day. The pups loved the attention she gave them. I highly recommend Michelle’s services.”

About: I’ve worked at Boarding and Daycare facilities for dogs so I know how to manage various sizes and age. Im not a certified Dog Trainer but I've trained a couple of dogs and have received glowing reviews.I’ve also owned a few dogs and 1 blind cat myself! I have a full time job that I work Monday-Thursday 7am-4:30pm. I do require at least 2 days notice for all services with the exception of dog walking. I may be available Thursday afternoons if asked ahead of time. I can’t have any animals where I currently live so, I will be based out of clients home. I follow all rules and boundaries you have regarding your home and personal spaces. I’m there for your dog and that’s it!

I am dedicated to providing a secure and fun environment with plenty of supervised playtime and attention.

“Alexandra is exactly what we needed! This was only my second time using Rover and I accidentally sent her to the wrong address(over 30 min away) 🤦🏻♀️ however she was so kind to go to our new address and take care of our babies! I could give her 5 stars on that alone, but she was so great at checking in even on our extra shy cat who hides from everyone. She even got her to come out!!! She cleaned the litter boxes more than we anticipated and was overall amazing! If you’re a beginner using Rover, Alexandra will provide all the comfort you need.”

“I was out of town for a week and Dejaná did such a great job dogsitting my labrador mix, Sadie! She followed the instructions I gave her on feeding, and if there were any medications she needed to take. She went above and beyond by asking me questions and sending me updated photos of Sadie throughout the week. She even took her out for walks without me asking. When I came home, the house was just as I left it, she cleaned and folded up anything she used, and Sadie seemed happy. I would 100% recommend her services again!

Kaila C.
“Kaila have been my dog sitter for years. My dogs love her. They look forward to her coming every time. It’s so wonderful to know I’m leaving my babies in such loving, capable hands. I have two large dogs - a lab and a pit, and she handles them both perfectly. I trust her to walk them, feed them, administer meds, and give them endless cuddles. She takes care of the space and keeps it clean, and goes above and beyond always. She’s reliable. If she says she is going to be there she shows up. She is always my first choice for a dog sitter because I know they will be well cared for and well loved while I’m gone. Our fur babies don’t always get to enjoy the vacations we go on, but the deserve the best life too and I know when Kaila comes to take care of them it’s a mini vacay for them too.”
