Cat Mom & Shelter Staff

Pet care experience

***I am temporarily only house sitting for cats*** I have lived with and been around animals my entire life. I volunteer regularly at a local shelter and am Fear Free Certified. I currently have 3 cats, all of whom have different behavioral and medical needs, aquatic pets, and am working on an enclosure for a scorpion. I really do love animals! I'm here to provide your pet with the best experience I can while you are away. Let me know what your pet is into! I am experienced with a variety of behaviors including shy & anxious dogs and over stimulated cats. I practice positive reinforcement and am working towards a fear free care certificate. A stranger coming into an animals special space can be scary, and I definitely understand! I am always quiet and gentle mannered around all animals. I love to house sit! I am clean, tidy, and honest and will respect your home and privacy. You will come home to a house exactly as you left it. You won't even know I was there! I do not accept bookings with indoor cameras / nanny cams for my own saftey and privacy. I am also not able to provide 24 hour care as I have a part time job and other clients to take care of. Read my reviews! They speak for themselves. I look forward to meeting you & your pet :)

We're so grateful to Michelle for staying with our three cats while we were away for a long weekend. She is very conscientious and communicative, and we felt sure that our boys and our home were in good hands with her. We came home to a spotless house and happy cats! We will definitely seek her services again!

Michelle was great. We're still getting 2 cats accustomed to each other and she was very understanding and accommodating.

I will do my best to replicate the routines and care you provide for your pet just as you would provide for them yourself. I'm not here to judge or change care. You always know what is best for your own animal.

Information Michelle C. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable caring for animals with unique care routines, food, medication, and/or inhalers provided I am given specific directions ahead of time and you are available to reach via phone or txt in case of a situation. I am not able to provide injections. I am not able to provide grooming services.

A typical day

I am happy to provide whatever type of care your pet is used to receiving. Just let me know! Some animals like active play time with a rope toy or laser pointer, while others are more quiet and are happy to have me just sits with them and read them a book. Every animal is an individual with unique needs and personality and I am here to accommodate that.
