Highlights
Pet care experience
Providing top-quality care for pets
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!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
There is an elderly greyhound 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!
Ratings and reviews
Michaela was fantastic with our dog Alfred. She was experienced, professional, and immediately put us at ease, which was especially reassuring as it was our first time leaving him with a dog sitter. Alfred was completely comfortable with her from the start, and it was clear he was in very capable hands. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages, which gave us real peace of mind. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michaela to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and we'd be very happy to book with her again.
Michaela was great with our dogs and sent regular updates and photos. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
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.
Left the house as found it and we felt happy that Meeko was in safe hands, thank you!
Michaela is an absolute god send! She is fantastic with updates and also so lovely. She has a great understanding of dogs which puts your mind at ease! 100% recommended🐶❤️
