I'm one of those animal people!
Pet care experience
I've had the opportunity to dog sit on several occasions. My mother used to have English Bulldogs that were crate trained, and every time she'd go on vacation I would babysit these 4 bulldogs! I would also sit for my aunt that also has English Bullies. I've previously worked for a breeder that had a few Yorkies and Shihtzus. I was given the task of feeding them everyday, giving them their vitamins, and worming them when needed. I've cared for pregnant dogs as well helping in the case she would give birth. With all of that said, I have also had my own pets! I currently have a Maine Coon cat named James, and a small Shihtzu named Junior.
About Michele R.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My yard is very big, but unfenced. We usually have the animals on a leash when they need to potty. So, that is what I do with any other dog I sit. My Shihtzu is crate and pad trained though too. Pads are an option for any of our furry guests too. We have two young children that absolutely love animals, so the amount of love and attention is endless!

Information Michele R. would like to know about your pet
Do they like children? Do children or babies make them nervous? Do other dogs/cats make them nervous?
A typical day
The open areas! There's a huge field behind my house, and we hardly have neighbors. We live on a dead end, so there isn't much traffic. A lot of the neighbors walk their dogs up and down the road daily, too! And everyone's animals are generally very friendly to people and other animals. We have a lot of toys that the kids like to share with the animals too like balls, stuffed animals, etc.

Availability
I'm a stay at home mother with two children. My oldest is homeschooled, so my availability is very open for opportunities like these. That being said, I am also very organized and appreciate a schedule that makes everyone in the house (animals and humans alike) happy!
