Michele H.'s Neighborhood

Have always loved animals!

Pet care experience

I grew up in a home that had cats for most of my life. Since having my own home I have owned two dogs. Currently do not own any pets but enjoy getting my animal “fix” by caring for others animals. Have cared for two dogs in our neighborhood and my daughters cat for the last two years. Treat every animal as if they were my own! I currently work a flexible, part-time job (3 days a week), This allows me to be available for drop in visits and/or walks most any day. I provide loving care to meet all their needs. I am a very reliable and trustworthy person. Would show up promptly as scheduled and perform all duties as requested.

Our cat is always happy with Michelle! He gets all his needs met, and has a friend too! We highly recommend her.

5 Stars aren't enough for the quality care Michele provided our precious little one. Something about her stood out in our initial search and after the meet and greet we saw why. Her confident, comfortable demeanor instantly put both my partner & I as well as our anxious, senior dog at ease. It was apparent how much she genuinely loves animals by hearing her share countless past experiences. She was thorough in asking all the right questions & covered all the bases addressing our dogs needs, respectful, on time, was fantastic at communicating, sent photos, was flexible & trustworthy-- I can't say enough good things. There are pages of dog sitters to sort thru, I'm not sure how we got this lucky, but Michele checked all of our (many) boxes and ones we didn't know needed checking! She sets the bar high. I wish we found her sooner and wholeheartedly recommend! We look forward to having her come again!
