I have been dog walking and pet sitting for years. I'm a lifelong animal lover. My first job was working in a Veterinary Clinic where, over the course of 8 years, I learned all about pet's health, happiness, safety and how to handle them properly. I have also had a wide variety of my own pets including cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish and more. I'm very reliable, professional and trustworthy. I'm energetic and absolutely love what I do! I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross and privately insured. I am available for walking, drop-ins and pet sitting overnight. Your pet's safety, health and happiness are my priorities. I will treat your pet with all the love and care it needs. I am looking forward to meeting you and enjoying caring for your furry family member!

Michelle followed instructions well and took time to get to know my dogs, including one pretty nervous one. Much appreciated!

Michelle came through in a pinch! Excellent service and care for my baby dog. 

If you are looking for an extremely professional, kind and attentive pet sitter, Michelle is a wonderful choice! 
We received daily updates and gorgeous photos of our pups while we were away and it was easy to see how content and well cared for they were. 
Don’t hesitate to book Michelle 👍🏼

Michelle was amazing! We did not know her prior to this booking so we were apprehensive, but she put our fears to rest. She came to our home ahead of time to meet our pets and they immediately took to her, sensing her nurturing and kind manner with animals. She is also great with people, too! 

Michelle took extra care to learn about our dogs and to meet our expectations. Every day Michelle sent us multiple videos and pictures, per our request. She also administered much needed medication for one our puppies and took them for walks each day. Furthermore, Michelle took care of our property, watering our plants, and making certain she left our home in pristine condition. 

In short, Michelle took the worry out of leaving our puppies and our home so we could relax!!!!  I think our puppies even miss her so we plan to hire Michelle again and are working to secure our second booking at this time. We highly recommend Michelle!!

We are so pleased to have found Michelle. She is very professional and dependable! She communicates well and goes above and beyond the basics. Our dog loved her and enjoyed their play time! We will definitely hire her again!

Michelle took care of my fish Sheldon for over a week during Christmas and New Year's. She would send me periodic pictures of Sheldon and was proactive in reaching out with clarifying questions as they arose. She was also just a really lovely person to chat with, and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Michelle is really wonderful with my rambunctious Bulldogs. She's a great communicator, and takes really good care of my house when I'm away. I highly recommend her. It's so nice to have a caring, dependable person to leave my pets with when I travel.

Michelle is the best and I highly recommend her. She stayed overnight at our home to watch our dog on two occasions. She is prompt, great with updates on how our dog was doing, and left our house spotless. She also made sure trash was taken out on trash day and took in deliveries. She has a wonderful demeanor and our dog is always happy to see her. Our family can go away with no worries when Michelle watches our dog. Highly recommend!

Michelle was great with our 3 cats! Punctual with the visits, spent lots of time playing with them and providing the TLC they are accustomed to. I was able to fully enjoy my vacation knowing they were in great hands with her updates and photos. I would not hesitate to hire her in the future!

I highly recommend Michelle. She watched our three, fairly needy, pups for 4 days while we were away. She was super accommodating to all their quirks, and sent lots of pics that made us feel confident and comfortable while we were away.

Michelle stayed a week with my elderly pup and 2 cats.  She was dependable, thorough, and incredibly caring with my babies while I was away. All 3 of them absolutely loved her! She will be my go to next time I go away, thanks so much Michelle!!! :-)

We had Michelle stay over at our house for 3 nights taking care of my 3 dogs. She is very detailed in asking her questions about your pet's needs, and makes sure she doesn't miss a beat.  I have old, blind, needy dogs that can not do stairs and she made me feel comfortable leaving them in her hands. We returned to our dogs not even caring we were home, which is what you want in a dog sitter. We will be using her again. 5 STARS for communication, punctuality, and puppy snuggles.

Michelle is very thorough with questioning about your dogs routines and behaviors during your meet and greet so that she will be prepared when she comes to pet sit. She is very conscious of safety issues and makes sure she has your vet info, etc in case of an emergency.  She treats your dog as she would her own and gives you daily updates and pics.  Michelle stayed with my dog, Benny, for a week.  The daily updates kept me from worrying so I could enjoy my vacation.  She followed all instructions and asked questions when she needed to. When I returned home, my pup was happy and healthy.  Michelle is very responsible and a very kind and caring person.  She was a pleasure to work with!!!  I will definitely be calling her again!

Michelle was an exceptional caregiver to my two cats. She thoughtfully sent photos to me and kept the litter fresh and the area free from litter dust. I came home to two well cared for and happy pets. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for loving reliable pet care.

Michelle did a fantastic job house and dog sitting for us while we were out of town for a week. Our dogs are high energy and anxious, and Michelle handled everything competently and patiently. She communicated well with us by text and pictures. Would definitely recommend Michelle!

I needed someone to stay with my dog and cat at my home, last minute, in a pinch! Well, I really lucked- out finding Michelle! She is knowledgeable and trustworthy. She stayed in touch, sending updates and pictures. Even the friend I had working in my basement while she was here said "She's a keeper!"

Michelle went above and beyond by giving the dog a much needed bath, spending time talking with my mother who has dementia, and even bringing in the recycle bins.

I was put at ease right away when she asked all the right questions - I felt she was going to be respectful of my home and treat my pup and kitty well. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Michelle!!

Michelle is reliable, attentive to detail and ensured she knew what our new puppy Kai liked for treats, play and walks.  She always communicated how his walks or sessions went and helped to train him with leash walking and basic commands.  I would highly recommend her for any needed pet care.

Michelle is wonderful in taking care of my cat Gigi . She comes quite frequently while I go on vacation. She gives fresh food and water and scoops the litter box for me. When I go away I know Gigi is in good hands . Gigi loves Michelle!! She's excellent!!

Michelle was able to work with me in a sort of last minute situation with my dog Lucie. Lucie has been struggling with separation anxiety with my job being so demanding I have been having a hard time finding a balance. When Lucie and I met Michelle we knew she would be in great hands and I would be worry free for the time she was caring for her! Michelle sends great update photos and let's me know how her day has been. She worked with her on training and gave me some good training tips!
