True Blue Pet Lover!
Pet care experience
I have owned various pets since childhood, and seen them to ripe old age. I lived on a mini-ranch for 20 years, and cared for a large family, and had dogs, cats, birds, horses...to name a few! Since I moved to Ocala, the last few years, I have taken care of several pets of friends and neighbors, and done house sitting, and walking, giving meds, and food and water, TREATS:), and PLAYTIME:).
Reviews
Michelle house sat for an our 62 lb 1-year-old labradoodle and brought her own 13 lb 2-year-old Duchhunt along with her. She was very respectful of our differen dog house rules (our dog is not allowed on our furniture) and accommodated our labradoodle's hyper arousal around her little dog, by the end of the week our dog was much better behaved around her dog, which was an added bonus towards his socialization. She told us our dog was ready for greater independence in our home with less dog gates etc, which was input we appreciated. She was respectful of our home and left it as she found it. She was very communicative, we heard from her daily with pictures and she responded promptly to any inquiries from us. I would highly recommend her without reservation.
Michelle did an absolutely fantastic job. She went out of her way to do two meet and greet appointments. She gave me the confidence to know I could relax while she was taking care of Flanagan in my home. My home was very clean when I returned home. Would definitely recommend Michelle.
My dogs were very comfortable with her. She stayed overnight with them and was great about sending pictures and updates. I booked her only a few days in advance and it worked out just fine.
Michelle is a kind and extremely caring person. We unexpectedly needed to travel for a funeral and Bill the bunny could not travel on the plane. Michelle took care of everything and sent the most adorable photos and updates. If you need help with your fur baby … this is your gal!

I am a fine artist, and do private tutoring in traditional painting. (Every now and then, I get a commission to do a pet portrait, which I love!) I am a self-starter, morning person, and pride myself on being on time, present in the moment, and walking in integrity in all I do! Taking care of pets enables me to continue in my creative work, and get out of the studio, meet new people and their fur babies!
