Highlights
Pet care experience
I’ll care for your pet as my own!
I’ve owned dogs of all sizes and cats my entire life! I grew up in a big animal lover home so in the last I’ve fostered, love volunteering at shelters and pet sitting! I have decades of experience with animals - dogs, cats and reptiles! I’m comfortable with pets with medical needs or providing a separate space for anxious pets! My cat and dog are both good with other dogs and cats so they will love the company but if your pet needs the space, my boys are happy to stay upstairs in the large ensuite! I currently work from home full time so expect lots of cuddles, walks, play time and tons of pictures of your little one!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Gurbata was so amazing with my wild little pugapom! She was great at communicating with me and sent lots of photos. She went above and beyond with taking care of my dog and gave him the attention and snuggles he thinks he deserves! Can’t recommend enough!

Such a great sitter! Can’t recommend enough. Takes great care of my dog and she is an excellent communicator.

She took such great care of our kitty!! Our cat is shy but she warmed right up to Michelle and loved her right away. Michelle took tons of photos during every check up. Definitely recommend her as a sitter and will book her again.

Michelle was amazing with my dog! She was extremely communicative and provided many pictures throughout the day. My dog had the best time with her!

Absolutely fantastic sitter! Beaux had a GREAT time and made himself right at home with Michelle, he acted like he wasn’t sure he wanted to come home 😅 I received so many amazing pictures and updates, I had absolutely no worries while I was away. Thank you so so much for caring for my baby - we will absolutely be back!!

Michelle is officially family. Wish I could leave 6 stars. She will love on your fur babies as if they’re her own. She went out of her way to take care of our home too. We are extremely grateful for all the care she provided.

I’m currently working at home full time with a flexible schedule so I’m able to fit in feeding several walks throughout the day, play time and plenty of cuddles!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a shaded fenced yard and an entire home for your furbaby to explore! I have a very friendly dog and cat (both small) that love new friends and will keep your furbaby company with playtime! If your pet likes their space, my pets don’t mind staying upstairs on the 3rd floor ensuite which is the same size as downstairs! We will fit in several walks in a day in my very quiet and green neighborhood!
Pets
A typical day
I like to start my mornings with a good walk to stretch the legs and relieve the pups! After we come in, clean paws and have our breakfast. I like to fit in 3-4 walks a day and there will be plenty of cuddles in between! Once I day I do general command training (with treats) with my dog so I will do it with the group which helps stimulate their minds and reinforce good behavior! And for the kitties, we have plenty of toys for enrichment and several cat trees around the house! After dinner, we go for one more walk or have some playtime before we cuddle in front of the tv till bedtime!

- I always ask for feeding routines, dietary needs, and if the dogs are crate trained or potty trained. We can work around just about anything but need to know ahead of time to make sure we are prepared!
