Dog Sitting in Excelsior Springs

About: My first pet sitting job was of 2 Boston Terriers at 9, since then I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, ducks, chickens, donkey, etc! I have been called a horse whisperer and my special talent in life is that I can get any introverted, sad, scared, animal to come out of it’s shell and feel at ease. I have taken care of farm animals in Nova Scotia, I’ve dog sat in Sweden, I’ve taken care of animals in CA, and I just love animals in general. I am extremely flexible, I work from home and have a sweet dog of my own who is playful and gentle with other animals. I, my husband or even our family as a whole take care of our animals first thing in the morning and at night, and I take time throughout the day to give them love and attention. I am home most of the time, I have lots of space to take your dog out to play (set up like a park but not fenced in, I can take them on a leash as needed) I have a kennel if you need or can set up yours. If you have a cat, my dog is used to them, though she does have an energetic greeting but we can separate them. I’m also happy to come visit your darlings at their home and make them feel comforted and ease. I’m one of those crazy animal ladies who likes to talk to animals, so I’ll soothe them and let them know you’ll be home soon!

“Machelle was very responsive and easy to work with. She went out of her way to help us out when our petsitter was suddenly unavailable. Can't say enough about how appreciative we were of her attentiveness to our fur babies.”

About: Animal-lover who started volunteering with rescues over a decade ago. Experienced with dogs, including reactive dogs(I have one of my own), cats, birds, and various other pets. Feel free to share the training commands you'd like to work on with your pet and I will try to work them in where I can during my visit. I will treat your pets like my own(my dog is incredibly loved and spoiled) Currently working freelance so my schedule is flexible. Able to work most visits into my schedule without issue, but if there's a visit that won't work, you'll know as soon as I do so other arrangements can be made Only open to dropping by and house-sitting bookings at the moment because my own dog can be reactive and we currently live with a cat, but I'm a great caretaker and a top choice for my friends when they need a sitter. Responsible, reliable, and focused on giving your pet the best care possible for their needs

“Very accommodating. Sent me photos taking care of my animals, and I could tell that she is an animal lover! Will be glad to have her take care of my animals again!”
