Safety, trust & environment

There are two elderly greyhounds in my new home so I cannot host any other pets at my house. In an owner's home, I would ask if there are any specific requirements for the pet(s) and make notes on this. I tend to speak a lot in a soft voice to animals that are nervous, and give them space if needed. For more outgoing pets, I can act more rambunctious and play! If they like cuddles, I'm all for that, too!

Information Michaela G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special requests for your pets and I will do my best to accommodate these. These are best discussed ahead of booking if possible, please. I like to arrange a call or meeting ahead of the booking to go through some important information if possible.

A typical day

When on dog walks, I like to let the dog set the pace as some like to sniff absolutely everything and others like to get going! I also like to play fetch/ball with dogs, and delight in seeing cats play and kick toys around. In the house, I would play indoor games if the pet(s) are interested, and talk to them... a lot.

Pet care experience

I've always adored dogs, ever since I was a child begging my parents every day for one. Dream granted when I was 10! We had a tri-coloured rough collie, and I have been infatuated ever since. I've helped family administer medication orally or via syringe to our old sausage dogs who had diabetes, walked and played with the border collie and rough collie, and currently assist with walking the elderly greyhounds in my new residence. Dogs make my day better, and I am still prone to pointing out every dog I see in public!

Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Lilly. She was like family to Lilly from the beginning. I got so many pupdates and she was super organised with writing everything down! I would recommend her to anyone as she is fab!

Michaela was great. Punctual, totally reliable and sensible. Zig was a bit under the weather in the week and M took her to the vet liaising with us very clearly. All in all we would certainly recommend Michaela to other pet owners.
