Your pets new best friend!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of and owned cats and dogs for many years, as well as training my own dogs. My love for animals knows no bounds. They will be safe, well cared for, and loved with me.

Michele is warm, friendly and communicative. She has been available to our family last minute and is accommodating of our dog's needs where he cannot be left alone due to severe separation anxiety. She is put together, asked questions and arrives on time (sometimes even early!). She responds well to our English Springer who is very high energy and can be demanding for attention. She is affectionate with him when he asks and also firm with him when he needs it. We are so thankful to have found her to support our growing family in ongoing dog sitting support. I would highly recommend Michele for any of your dog sitting needs!

Michele was great with Bauer while we were away and sent us lots of pictures and updates.

Looks like Alfie had a lovely week with Michele. Was great to receive photos and updates 😺 Michele took care of our home and we would be happy to recommend and use her again.

Michelle was great with our anxious Buddy. She sent regular updates with pictures and did her best to keep him calm and happy. She even took him to work with her so he wasn’t home alone. We would definitely use her services again.

Safety, trust & environment

The care of your pets in my home will depend on their individual needs and how you have trained them, such as crate trained dogs. I live alone so there will be plenty of time for cuddles, walks, brushing, play time, etc... I have a spare room that is perfect for crates, cat tree, beds, play tunnels, etc... My home is lived and loved in and if they're on the furniture, that's okay. Please note, I do like to have 2 'meet and greets' with you and you baby. The first is outdoors where we can interact and the second is in my home so your baby knows and remembers the environment when they arrive and they don't feel anxious or sad when you leave them.

Information Michele F. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any special requirements, please discuss those with me. If there are particular things that you do with your pet such as daily training, I'm happy to continue with that while they are in my care.

A typical day

For those high energy dogs, a good long walk is a necessity. A Kong filled with peanut butter or a treat ball is great for stimulating their minds.

Availability

I currently have a full-time job and my schedule is known well in advance which leaves me plenty of availability for your 4-legged babies. I'm gearing up for retirement in the next 10 years and would love to carry my pet services well into retirement. I recently lost the last of my beloved pets and realize how empty my life is without them. I look forward to taking the love I've had, and still have, for my previous pets and showering it on yours.
