Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets the way the owners care for them. As a pet owner myself, I would expect no less. Let me know all your pets' habits and routines, as well as the rules of your house, and I will follow them.

Information Michelle C. would like to know about your pet

It's important to understand your pet's existing routines. The advantage of me staying in your home is that your pet doesn't get too stressed about not having you there by keeping everything as normal as possible.

A typical day

I'm big on walking in nature, and most dogs I've taken care of love that. But whatever your dog's walking routine, I'm good to go.

Long Term Sitter

Pet care experience

Going away for more than a week or two? I'm a writer and personal coach who can work from anywhere -- and I've been doing that for 3 years now! Living with wonderful pets from Newfoundland to Ontario. I know what's it's like to hand your home and pets over to strangers when you plan to be away for weeks or months. My commitment is that you feel relieved and relaxed, knowing that I've been in your shoes. Since I work from home, your pets are never alone for long. I'm on Signal, Whatsapp, and Telegram, so if you need to text or want pictures of your darlings, no problem. I now have a library of pet photos of all my furry friends! If you're heading away from home for 6 days or 6 months, contact me to see if we're a fit.

We had a fantastic experience with our pet sitter. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring. She handled a lot of moving parts, especially one of our dog’s medication routines, with great attention to detail. She was consistently punctual, kept everything tidy, and made our home feel just as we left it. While we were away, she sent detailed updates that really put us at ease and helped us feel connected to our pets. It is such a relief to find someone so reliable and attentive. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, organized, and genuinely wonderful sitter.

Our first experience with Michelle was great. Out goldens were well taken care of and we had no worries while away on our trip.

Michelle has provided consistent care for our 2 tiny dogs and our home while we’ve been away. We deeply appreciate her! Michelle is also very prompt and clear in her communication which we defiantly appreciate too :-)
