Michele took such good care of my two pups on several trips. They loved her immediately and she took such good care of them. She was a great communicator while I was gone. Highly recommend her!
Laura M., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele and her Scottsdale Pet Services are amazing. Our cat, Scarlett, is a shy girl and our long time pet sitter graduated college, started working full time and stepped back from cat sitting. As long time empty nesters, Scarlett is our family and we wanted to be sure we found someone terrific to care for her when we travel. Fortunately, our neighbors who have cats highly recommended Michele. We’ve taken a number of trips this year as long as a week. We are so happy with her professionalism, reliability, kindness and gentleness with Scarlett. Michele has earned our highest recommendation.

I have the highest praise for Michele and recommend her without reservation. A multitude of glowing reviews on NextDoor led us to hire Michele for dog walking. She is truly a pro – caring, knowledgeable, reliable, organized, compassionate, and an absolute gem to work with. Our dog loves Michele and we are so happy we found her! If you are looking for pet services, she is the best!

Michele has been an absolute Godsend to us for the past 6 months. My husband and I both travel for work and we have a little Yorkie who has health issues and needs medication twice each day. She is so thoughtful and caring with our dog. We absolutely trust her in our home. She sends great pictures. We had two dogs when we started with her but the older one got very sick and didn’t make it. The little one left behind is lonely and Michele is very sensitive to her needs. She is GREAT at communication and follow-up. Very responsible and reliable. I recommend her without hesitation for your pet care needs.

Michele is wonderful! She is reliable and detail-oriented. After my dog had a bad boarding experience at a local daycamp, we found Michelle and I am so glad we did! I used to worry about leaving my sweet Teddy at boarding when my husband and I went on vacation. Since we found Michelle and Scottsdale Pet Services, I worry no more, and have a much better time on vacation because I know Teddy is so well cared for! We get a picture and/or an update every day. And, best of all, we come home to find a normal, happy, healthy dog! If you are considering a pet sitter, go with Michele and you won’t be disappointed!

Our two cats present a complex feeding combination for pet sitters. We have: a) a diabetic kitty who requires feeding schedule regularity with insulin injection; and b) a cat who hides from all non-family members. If both cats don’t appear and eat when fed, the diabetic kitty will eat both portions. Michele, Scottsdale Pet Services has found a way to get both cats their food-lowers my travel stress level!
Peter L., Scottsdale, Arizona
We used Michele for the first time after reading great recommendations for her on Next Door. Michele did a great job feeding and cleaning up after our rescue cat of 4 years, Parker. She gave us a daily update and texted some great photos of him. We know he was much better off at home with Michele’s visits rather than being boarded at the Vet. He is a social guy and know he was in much better hands with Michele’s 30 minute visits than his 24/7 boarding. Thanks Michele and so happy to have her services that we have 2 other trips planned before summer ends for which Michele will be caring for Parker. We would would highly recommend her services.

Michele is the best ! My Gemma loves Michele and I can’t say enough good things. I highly recommend her. I never worried a minute I was gone
Michelle H., Scottsdale, Arizona
Appreciate the attention Michele gives to my girls. I know they are getting lots of loving and brushing and belly rubs.
Lisa T., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is the best! We were able to enjoy our trip with the peace of mind that our diabetic dog – and our home – were in excellent hands. Our dog was happy and healthy when we got home and everything was as we left it.
Barbara D., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele of Scottsdale Pet Services is professional and compassionate. She made four check ins during the day, and with each check in we received a photo and detailed description on how our Chase did. She was so good, we are trying to figure out where we could go so we can use Michele again!
Bistra P., Scottsdale, Arizona
I highly recommend Scottsdale Pet Services as your go-to pet sitting solution! I had to go out of town for a week without much notice, and Michele Cervantez was my savior! Not only she responded to me in the nick of time, but she took exceptional care of my Footsie! Michele is an animal lover, a great neighbor to connect with and she went above and beyond when she took care of my cat. I only paid for three house calls but Michele visited my Footsie every day while I was gone and gave her attention and loving care. I will not hesitate to use Scottsdale Pet Services again, and Michele in particular because she is friendly, efficient and reliable!
Jennifer B., Scottsdale, Arizona
Honest, kindhearted company. Couldn’t ask for a better person to watch your animals!
Monika M., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele lovingly took care of our cat during three of our recent trips. Our cat adores her, and we’re happy, too. Michele is respectful of our home and very professional in her communications and booking. She frequently updates us about her visits to our cat and always includes a photo or two. It is always interesting to read how her routine with our cat evolves — the two have their own little thing going 🙂 We’re very happy with her services and heartily recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Elisa L., Scottsdale, Arizona
What a relief to have met Michele , so loving and caring for my dog. I totally trust Michele from the moment I met her, to be in my house alone and to take care of my precious little fur baby. She did a great job, sent pictures and a text and I didn’t have to worry at all. It was a great experience and I will use her all the time.
Shawna N., Scottsdale, Arizona
Thank you so much Michele for taking amazing care of my kitties and sending pictures/videos while we were out of town. Will definitely be using you in the future again! Much appreciated
Jackie P., Scottsdale, Arizona
I found Michele on Nextdoor several months ago and I couldn’t be happier. I have an 80 pound rescue dog who would constantly pull on his leash when we walked just wanting to meet and greet all dogs and anything else that approached us, like people. Michele and I take turns walking Marley and when it is Michele’s turn, Marley stands looking out the window until she arrives and then starts barking with much excitement and does not stop until Michele and Marley leave the house for his walk. I’m really a little jealous about the excitement he displays when Michele arrives.
Janet H., Scottsdale, Arizona
I found Michele through Next Door and am so thankful for her. My return to work has been much less stressful knowing my little senior fur baby is in Michele’s capable and loving care. Michele is a true animal whisperer who not only gives excellent hands on pet care, but she has also given me some much appreciated suggestions to make my house less stressful for my dog while I’m at work. If you want the best in pet care when you can’t do it yourself, I highly recommend Scottsdale Pet Services!

I adopted a 100 lb Lab who has “issues” and despite a lot of formal training, I could not walk him. I found Michele when I looked for someone who I could trust to walk him. Michele came to the house and immediately seemed to bond with him and demonstrated a lot of patience while he settled down. She returned and again got to know the dog and walked him around the patio and then the driveway and then the cul de sac. She almost immediately got him under control and then he graduated to walks down the street once a week. After observing Michele with my dog I’ve asked her to come to walk and interact with him twice a week. I trust her with him and know that she knows how to keep him under control. After just a couple of weeks I saw a difference in his demeanor. Some would say I’m hard to please and demand the best for my dogs and I do! Michele does a great job and I trust her completely with my dog.
MaryLynn K., Fountain Hills, Arizona
Michele is a great dog sitter. Goes above and beyond to care for our pup. She’s the very best!
Lisa B., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele was wonderful when she took care of our 11 year old border collie this past week. She was timely and always sent a picture with an update after each visit. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Michele 😊
Susan C., Scottsdale, Arizona
Words cannot express my gratitude for the loving and exceptional care Michele gave our kitty while we were away. He is very shy and hides from most strangers, but he was completely comfortable with her from the first meeting and even sought out her attention. She is extremely conscientious, professional, caring and in tune with every pets unique needs. Her texts, photos and videos after each visit gave us such peace of mind.
Dana M., Fountain Hills, Arizona
Michele is THE BEST! First, I hesitate writing this recommendation because I am concerned she will be booked when I need her :). I treat my pup like a child – I am overly analytical about her routine and care. I leave pages of carefully prepared notes. And I am not the easiest of clients, of that I am certain. Michele has a high attention to detail and more importantly is laser focused on loving my pup as much as I do, maybe more :). Can say enough about her and I feel blessed to have found her.
Charise M., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is amazing! We were going on vacation for the first time since the pandemic and were leaving our three cats for the first time. We know they do not do well boarding and so we wanted to keep them at our house. Michele took care of everything. She was amazing with our cats, played with them, changed out their water, topped off food, cleaned litter boxes, and made sure our little escape artist did not escape. She sent us daily photos and texts with updates. I cannot say enough good about Michele. I have already recommended her to our neighbors and will definitely use her again in the future.
Lisa S., Rio Verde, Arizona
Michele went out of her way to accommodate my dates – even as a first time client. She genuinely wanted to help me out. Our meet and greet was great. I felt a real connection and could tell she really does understand pets and their language. I have a reactive male pit bull and constantly worry if sitters will follow my instructions when walking him and not allowing him to reach threshhold. She checks in everyday with some pics and she let me know how he did on his walks – even when they passed some other dogs and he was starting to react. She told me how she handled it and it was great. She’s punctual and left my house as it was when she got there. I would highly recommend her to sit for your pets. She also does volunteer work with horses, so just another example of what an animal lover she is. 5 stars for sure!
Jamie B., Scottsdale, Arizona
Finding a good pet sitter can be hard but Michele made the whole process easy as can be! Our little Rocco was so shy with her at first but she was patient & loving with him and she really opened him up. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the job she did. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and knowledgeable pet sitter look no further. Your pet baby is in good hands with Michele!
Alexis W., Fountain Hills, Arizona
Michele with Scottsdale Pet Services is the best pet sitter I have worked with since moving here in 2019. She is professional, caring, communicates effectively, reports updates with pictures and just overall takes care of your pets as if they were her own. I’m so grateful I found her because now I can leave on trips feeling 100% comfortable knowing my pets are safe and well taken care of. Stop looking for other pet sitters and call her immediately! She is top notch!
Andrea O., Fountain Hills, Arizona
My husband and I moved here recently and tried out the dog walkers on Rover and did not have luck. I found Michele recommended on Nextdoor and she has been the most wonderful find whom we use weekly to walk our 2 Cavalier King Charles. She even went the extra mile one day to tell me that my refrigerator door was beeping and made sure to close it as well as checked my water for me when it had been shut off one day. Those little trusting “extra miles” are so greatly appreciated when a stranger is entering your home and taking care of your pets!
Elspeth I., Scottsdale, Arizona
I hired Michele after reading the reviews about her on Nextdoor. She was fantastic! We were gone for 5 days, because of a disastrous experience at a boarding facility, decided to keep our dog home. Michele came twice a day to take our dog for a walk. She fed him dinner in the evening and gave him treats and lots of attention. We were trying a “gentle leader” collar on him and she worked with him patiently with great success. We also had neighbors coming over to feed cats and to play with him during the day so he had lots of attention. We came home to a healthy and happy dog!! When Michele came to drop off the key, our dog greeted her ecstatically which was a wonderful sign. She was willing to do whatever was needed to insure his safety and happiness. She is an animal lover and it shows.
Susan H., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is SO very amazing! She took excellent care of our sweet 13 yr old shihtzu who requires many medications and is set in his ways. He was so well taken care of he seemed so relaxed and happy when we arrived home. Special detailed messages everyday. Best caring pet sitter! Highly recommend! Thank you so much Michele! You are awesome!
Scott W., Fountain Hills, Arizona
Just had Michele take care of my two English bulldogs while on vacation. She did a fabulous job! Michele went over and above expectations. She was prompt in her visits, gave them tons and of love, snapped pictures and sent to me, and overall couldn’t have asked for a more professional pet sitter. I highly recommend Michele and will DEFINITELY be using her again soon! Thank you Michele! Great job!!
Jennie E., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is the best! She is the most caring and knowledgeable animal caretaker! I have known her for years in pet search and rescue and she is always willing to add her expertise. I totally trust her with my pets safety and well being and she will care for your home with the upmost of care as well.
Nick S., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is absolutely amazing. She cares for our animals (alpacas, tortoises, emu, chickens, Guinea fowl) like they are her own kids! Goes way above and beyond what I expected and is fair with pricing and is timely, consistent, and communicative and very dedicated to the well being of our animals. Would highly recommend!
Valerie R., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is amazing! She recently took care of my two Australian Shepherds while I was away and I was thrilled with the care she provided. I have a senior dog with medication requirements and a younger dog with exercise needs. She balanced the needs of both my pups very well. I would use Michele again anytime!
Karen S., Scottsdale, Arizona
Michele is awesome! She definitely goes above and beyond in service of the pets. I appreciate and trust her greatly!
