Pet care experience
If you're looking for someone that will effectively, thoughtfully, and responsibly care for your pets you've found the right person! I can do as much as you need and beyond to give you adequate peace of mind that your pet is in good hands. I hope to care for your pet as lovingly as I do my own! I currently work full time in another job, but would love to still be considered for your pet's care if they have a flexible routine. For cats, I've had them all my life and love them dearly. Currently, I have 3 of my own and help my parents care for them daily by feeding them and providing water, changing/cleaning litter, playing, and regular brushing. I have experience giving daily medication (pills and inhaler) to one of my cats and used to give insulin shots to another, so I can provide medication if needed depending on how it is received. Because I've had cats all my life, I've helped care for them for a great part of my life, but I only have about 3 years of paid, outside experience. My paid experience is that I have taken care of other people's cats in the past for periods of a few days to up to a week or two through daily visits to their homes. I prefer to care for cats but can also look after dogs. For dogs, I have less experience than cats, but love them just as much! I have dog sat for family and others before for up to a week through daily visits to their homes. I'm able to feed, provide water, play, clean up after, and take for walks. **Please note I will have to charge an additional $10/visit for the administration of medication not received through food and for visit requests after 10 pm. Thank you.**

Michele is the best! Always feel safe and confident when leaving my car in Michele’s hands. Have utilized Michele’s services on several occasions and am consistently impressed.
Michele was amazing with my cat! I’m grateful that she was able to help me out with short notice. I recommend Michele to anyone who needs help with cats!
Michele is such a great sitter! Have used her for cat sitting on several occasions and highly recommend.
I’m grateful to Michele for accepting a last minute request to watch my cat, who’s currently recovering from an infection, for a few hours so I could attend an event. Michele provided timely updates and my cat seemed calm and happy. I recommend Michele to others with cats!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Through drop-in visits, I hope to care for your pets with the same level of care, love, and full attention to detail as I give my own pets. I am also happy to look after your house while you're away whether that be receiving mail, watering plants, or anything else needed.
Information Michele W. would like to know about your pet
What kind of personality do they have i.e. interaction/sociability with new people, daily habits (feeding, playing, sleeping), favorite things/places, favorite things to do? What are their routines i.e. times they eat, any specifics of how they go to sleep, where they should/should not be in the house? Breed/species preferences: Cats
A typical day
Depending on their already present routines and frequented locations, I am happy to go to dog parks or other special locations at the discretion of owners. I hope to cater to each dog's and cat's needs to make them feel as close to their normal comfort level as possible while you're away.
