Experienced Veterinary Professional

Pet care experience

Hello loving dog parent! Thank you for checking out my profile. As a owner of 3 dogs, I know how stressful it can be to worry about how your dog is doing while you're away or at work, and that is what I am here for! I worked in a veterinary hospital for 4 years, first as a kennel attendant where my sole job was to feed, love on, and take care of the animals boarding. Then, I was promoted to a veterinary technician at the same hospital where I learned many medical skills for taking care of dogs including giving medication to stubborn animals, giving fluids, etc. I will be a first year veterinary student at UC Davis starting in the fall. Not only do I have the business experience, but also the personal experience since I have 3 dogs of my own. I will also be sure to give your pet the love and care they deserve while you are away and keep you updated on my visit to your pet by sending you photos so you can be assured your pet is being taken care of!

I am very pleased and impressed with the care my dogs received from Machel. I really liked that she sent me updates on how the dogs were doing and I loved that she was very loving towards them. I felt comfortable and relieved knowing my dogs were in good hands. I will definitely use her services again, and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Machel.

Machal is THE BEST! Wouldn't bring my pups to anyone else! 5 stars voted in by my pack of pups. This is the only person I have ever trusted to take care of my pack of 7 (all bully rescues!).

Machal is the best! She is an extremely responsible pet sitter that has a strong love and passion for animals. She has always taken such great care of my Wilson, and is very flexible and easy to talk to. I wouldn't want to leave me dog with anyone else! She is also a vet tech, so she can medicate any of your animals which takes a lot of the worry away :)

Information Machal S. would like to know about your pet

Are your pets aggressive towards other dogs? If so, I will be sure to avoid situations in which your dog may have a negative encounter with another. Will your pet be ok with me entering the premises without you being there? Does your pet have any special needs? What is the one thing your pet loves more than anything (other than you of course :) )?

A typical day

I will take your pet on walks in your local neighborhood and through any parks. If there is a dog park within walking distance and your dog is dog friendly, I can take them there to socialize, or if you prefer I could play ball or frisbee in their back yard or just hang out with them outside and snuggle!
