Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover I also have two daughters one who lives with her own family and one is in high school so I’m looking to fill my time with somethings I love which are animals. I have had a yorkie since she was 3 months old in 2003 until she passed away in 2018 I’ve also had a chihuahua from 3 months old until she passed in 2019. I’ve also had two cats that were kittens and passed away in my home one was 20 years old and the other had kidney failure at the age of six. I’ve also had a fish, a parakeet and a Guinea pig. I now have 2 French bulldogs and a pitbull mix. I also just got a kitten. I love dogs and cats. I’m very patient and friendly and will take care of your family pet like they were my own. I can love on your pet and cuddle them if that’s what they like or I can play with them and exercise them if that’s more their thing. I will send you pictures so you know your pet is well taken care of. I look forward to spending time with your fur baby.

Michele is the best! I really appreciate all the photos and details in her visit recaps. I can tell she truly cares for my babies and it makes me feel so much better when I’m away.

Michel is so great! She’s communicative, timely, and takes the best pics of my baby. She’s so consistent with her care. I know my dog is loved when Michele comes to visit and take him out :) she also goes above and beyond when I have my brothers dog visiting too
