Animal lover with flexible schedule
Pet care experience
I've had cats all my life, raising several from kittenhood to old age. I've owned one dog, and have dog sat for friends and family. As an avid animal lover and photographer, I've even taken in baby squirrels and other small animals and taken care of them until spots opened up at the local animal rescue.
Reviews
As a lifelong cat owner, Michele will treat your beloved pet like her own! I watched my 4yr old scaredy cat develop a bond with her as she became her daily feeder. She reads pet's demeanor, body language, etc & handles herself great with our 4legged friends. I've known her for decades and she is a reliable, honest, hard working gal. Daily walking is normal daily living for Michele... She'll be great in taking dogs out on long or short challenge walks 👍
I have known Michele as a friend for over 30 years and we were room-mates when I lived in the States. She is very caring person with a particular love of animals. When I last visited her she had saved the life of a flying squirrel and was meticulously caring for it and getting up in the night to feed and care for the animal. I was very moved by the way she took care of the flyting squirrel. She is very focussed, gentle and responsible towards animals. I would higly recommend her as a loving pet caregiver.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a semi-rural area on a quiet dead end street with a lot of open space and places to walk. I have an older cat who will be partitioned off upstairs unless we agree that a meetup is in order.

Information Michele D. would like to know about your pet
I would love to do a meet and greet to get to know your dog or cat. Please let me know about their preferences and quirks, food and crate routines, etc.
A typical day
I love paying attention to animals and meeting their needs. I am quite aware that cats rule any household, including pet sitting homes. So I work my good my way into their good graces slowly and take their lead. Dogs on the other hand, I’m happy wandering the neighborhood on a breed/age appropriate walk, or just chilling at home with a good toy.
