Pet care experience

Pet will be feeling at home

I have a great love for dogs, no matter what shape or size. I have grown up living in a household with small to medium dogs and other furry animals. I understand how much pets can affect you in a good way. I have had the privilege of taking care of older dogs, dogs with medication and even a puppy. Recently, in past two years, i have had the opportunity to also care of a cat plus a big beautiful german Shepard. My goal is to ensure and comfort your dog while you are away. I will keep the dog(s) on their regular, training routine to the specific detail you tell me.

Safety, trust & environment

I had a maltipoo. She was loud when you first meet her but really shy. Also friendly enough to hold on to. She is potty trained and knows some commands. With other dogs she gets a long with them, and she just needs to warm up to them because of shyness. I kept her on dog food not human food and she weighs less than 10 lbs. She would run around and play with the younger dogs but also mellow down with the older dogs.

House Sitting • Jun 08, 2022

Great sit! I was overall very happy with how Michelle took care of my home and pets. There were some issues but Michelle was quite gracious about them. I will be looking to hire her in the future.

Michelle was very accomodating. She worked with us to make sure the fluffs were as comfortable as possible as we were traveling. She was very responsive when we messaged each other. And, most importantly, my fluffs were super happy with her!

I hired Michelle to pet sit my elderly Miniature Schnauzer at my home while we were away on vacation. Since my schnauzer is elderly and more comfortable in her own home environment, it really helped that I didn't have to take my dog to a pet boarding. Michelle was prompt, caring and trustworthy. She made sure that my pet was happy and comfortable. I left a list of instructions including how to handle my pet and my pet's walking and feeding schedule and she followed thru with them. I appreciate too that she made sure the blinds were open to let sun in so that my pet could sun bathe because I told her that my pet loves to sun bathe. I would definitely hire Michelle again.

I have known Michelle for over 15 years and she has had animals around her. She grew up with plenty of dogs and other assortment of animals. She has been taking care of dogs for friends and people her mother cleans house for. One of the "puppies" was a big dog though young in age. She played with it outside in the front gated lawn as I watched. I had to drop something off for her so saw the interplay. That puppy really loved Michelle. She also took care of three little but older dogs for friends of mine since I was out of town. They needed to be walked every day. Another dog Michelle cared for had to be walked. I was told where they started and the return trip. It was more than a mile. Yet she walked the dog each day as requested from the lady. Another dog snuck out into the back yard because there was an animal there. Before Michelle could get the dog back, the animal sprayed the dog being it was a skunk. Michelle called the owners right way to ask for directions in cleaning the dog. The next day, I went by and could not smell the skunk smell. The owner had problems with the dog getting out to attack the skunk. But Michelle did not panic. Yes, Michelle is a very good animal lover who takes good care of the animals. Even the animals would agree to have Michelle take care of them. Arf, Woof and bark.

Michelle is excellent with animals. She is a dog owner herself. She worked with me watching my animals. She will listen to your rules. She is honest and felt my animals were excellent care

Michelle is a responsible and loving dog caregiver. She has been the responsible caregiver for my own dog when I'm out of town. My dog loves her and I trust her.

Schedule

I do community service part time which is regular in my life. I am willing to have a fixed or flexible schedule for short-term jobs. Not available Sunday mornings or Tuesday nights for meet and greet. My goal is to keep your pet safe and comfortable while at the same time keep your home just as you had left it before your vacation.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Michelle can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I would like to know the dogs daily schedule so I can keep up with it. Also if it is potty trained or not and how much exercise you provide the dog on a daily basis. I have no preferences on breeds.
