Been around animals my own life

Pet care experience

First off, all money I make on boarding your family pets, go to my medical mission account, you help me raise money which goes toward serving others. I travel all over the world serving other by providing essential needed surgery. This year I am traveling to Gaulamala and Zambia. Thank you for trusting me with your family Pet and helping me serve others in the operating room. I was raised on a ranch, so I’ve been a lover of animals ever since I could remember. Now married to a wonderful man who loves that I love animals, I have all kinds. I have 5 Pygmy goats, 15 laying chickens where I enjoy fresh eggs daily, a very large tortoise that’s around 130 lbs, 3 dogs, and I think that’s it, don’t think I’m forgetting anyone. Being around all kinds of animals makes me happy. They are safe and cared for, and bring joy to my life every day. The difference between me and a lot of caregivers, is not the love of animals, because let’s face it, they wouldn’t be watching pets if they didn’t, but the property that I live on. I work 2 days a week outside of the home, I’m a surgical First Assistant in the OR, a passion for helping others. I also feel giving back is essential, so traveling on medical missions is rewarding. And the rest of the days are spend at home, taking care of our farm (zoo). We have 2 acres, and the entire property is fenced with electric gate. Plus additional fenced areas inside perimeter gate. All our animals have their own areas. Every pet is spoiled and cared for better then the humans who live here. I work outside the Home on Tuesdays and Thursday from 5:30am-12:00pm. I am a self-employed contact worker that makes my own schedule, so my schedule is very flexible. During most major holidays, I take off because there's so many people traveling, and such a high demand of quality pet care, its hard for people to find good help for their precious family members. Every animals no matter of size, or type, is treated like a family member of my own. I love all animals, and this is the very reason I do this. It is hard to find someone you trust to leave one of your own family members with, and I take that care and responsibility very seriously.

My two dogs and one cat had a wonderful time at Michelle’s this past weekend. She has the perfect space, is very attentive to the pets and easy to communicate with. Dropping-off and picking up were also a breeze. We are happy and grateful and will definitely book again!

Safety, trust & environment

our property is completely fenced, with electric gate that stays closed at all times. I also do not inter-mingle dogs until I know their personality and feel comfortable with them paying with other dogs. If they are here for a short time, then I may not get to know them well enough, and they will only play outside with me alone, or any family pets they come with.

Information Michelle B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, or aggressive with other animals. I work in the medical field as a OR surgical assistant, so I have the medical background to take care of your pets. Also for all boarding animals (boarding only) I am very flexible with drop off time, I can even help with meeting locations if that makes it easier. All I ask is all animals be picked up no later than 12Noon, unless you've made special arrangements with me ahead of time, holidays are different when everyone is traveling, flights and long drive trips may not be able to accommodate, but communication is key.

A typical day

We live on a large fully fence 2 acre property. Plenty of room for dogs to run and enjoy physical activities. I have miniature goats that my dogs love to play with. Here your pets will be on their own vacation, and before they return home they will feel the joy of being a country pet, running & playing the whole 2 acres.
