Pet care experience
My name is Michelle. I am a part time goat farmer and part time virtual assistant who has been working on goat farms for the past five years. When house sitting I commit my schedule fully to the care of your animals and home and will arrange my farm work accordingly and do my other work remotely while cuddling your pets! I have experience taking care of a variety of animals, goats, chickens, rabbits, cats, birds, pigs and all types and sizes of dogs. I have house sat on farms, tiny homes and in lavish dwellings. Anything that you may need taken care of while dog sitting, gardening, household chores and projects or errands I am willing to do additionally. I look forward to working with you!
Reviews
Michelle stayed at our home while we were away and did a wonderful job watching our 11 month old golden retriever. He got exercise and was given great care. I would recommend Michelle to anyone looking for dog/house sitter. Thank you Michelle!
Michelle was awesome and Edie was in great shape when we got home.
Michelle has been taking care of my animals and house sitting for me over the past 6 or so months. I can't recommend her highly enough. She is prompt, communicates about scheduling in advance, coordinates substitutes if she is not available, is self directed, problem solves...and...she loves the animals.
My two dogs love Michelle! She has stayed with them at our house and we were very happy with her service. Our large, athletic young dogs were relaxed and the house and yard were in good shape when we got home. We will ask her to house sit again

Safety, trust & environment
I try to keep you pets as close to their normal schedule and life as possible when in your home. Having their person away is hard enough, I work to try to ease that separation anxiety for them.
Home
Information Michelle D. would like to know about your pet
Where does the dog like to sleep? Are they friendly with other dogs? Are they allowed to have treats? How much walking are they used to in a day? What is there usual poop schedule?
A typical day
This truly depends on the dog. Some animals do not like to go to new places, and I will certainly respect that. If I have spoken with the owner about this prior, I like to bring dogs to a variety of place, Foss Farm, The Bagota or even my large fenced in backyard to play fetch!
