About
I’m the sole owner of Tailwaggers Pet Sitting Services LLC, proudly caring for pets since 2008. As a one-woman business, I personally handle everything—from our first meet-and-greet to each visit, walk, or overnight stay.
I truly value the trust my clients place in me and the special bond I build with every pet in my care. Whether you need pet sitting, dog walking, pet boarding, or house sitting, I offer flexible, reliable service tailored to both your schedule and your pet’s unique needs.
If you’re looking for a caring, consistent professional who treats your pets like family, I’d love to connect. Give Tailwaggers a ************ to chat about how I can help.

Michelle really cared for our dogs. We have a playful puppy and a senior dog with health issues and she cared for both like they were her own. Our dogs really trust her and she sent us pictures of them every day so that we could see how they are doing. Michelle is a real pleasure to work with.

Michele is there for your pet. She thinks of their needs and emotions . She works well with the pet owner in meeting their expectations and care of their pet. She is professional, knowledgeable, flexible and friendly ! She communicates what’s happening between her and your pet while in her care. I highly recommend Tailwaggers for your petsitting needs. Our Lacey loves her.🩷🐶

The feedback that I got from my two cats, Tuck and Sweetie was that Michele was wonderful and they both enjoyed working with her. 😀

Michele was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat. She came for a meet and greet and instantly connected with our cat. While we were away, she always kept us up to date when she was coming and going and sent us picture updates. We felt very grateful to have left our kitty in her care. I would recommend Michele to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

I would’ve chosen all five options, but the site won’t let me….
Michele puts so much heart into taking care of any pet shes charged with, you can see for yourself on her fb page…she takes care of my two girls when I’m out of town, and I know I can leave and be assured of quality care while I’m away.
If you’re in need of a fantastic, competent and truly caring pet sitter, you found the right one with Taiwaggers!
