A Happy Pet Is The Best Pet

Pet care experience

**Available in the Charlottesville/Albemarle area only!!** For roughly 14 years I have handled, trained (certified) and dealt with a large variety of animals. From running rehabs, kennels, trainings and breeding I find the little things to be the greatest things. Each animal no matter what, has its own flair of personality. I have experience with Cats, Dogs (all breeds), Rabbits, Horses, Cattle, Goats/Sheep ext. Exotic Pets; Hedgehogs, Ferrets, Skunks, and raccoons . James Saunders is my husband and currently inactive.

James and Michaela were very responsive during their visits - took the time to feel out the dog’s moods (we have one dog who struggles with anxiety), and adjusted the visits accordingly so the dogs were comfortable. It is clear they love dogs and are very experienced. I greatly appreciated the thoroughness of the Rover cards after each visit. Very happy with their service and would highly recommend!

James was absolutely amazing!! He looked after our dogs and our house for 10 days. He asked great questions, took lots of pictures and videos, and gave us great updates. He did an incredible job of looking after our babies exactly as we asked! I would absolutely recommend James and will be using him again in the future.

My primary focus is to treat your pet like he or she was my own. When your pet is under my care, you can rest assured that they will be loved, respected, and protected!

Information Michaela M. would like to know about your pet

I need to know their temperament, medical issues, behavioral issues, and allergies, any concerns if youve been noticing odd behavior. I like to know if there's any commands they know, and how well they listen to their handlers!

A typical day

I enjoy playing games with pets, whether that be a game of catch, hide and seek, a walk, or just some sniffing and pawing around! If they don't feel like being outside, we can even just hang out together inside and get some petting on!
