Safety, trust & environment

I am available to care for pets in their own homes. I would follow the lead and instructions of the family. My current feline companion is still a wee bit feral and not fond of sharing his space yet therefore I have paused fostering and am happy to house/pet sit.

Information Michelle D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet requires any special attention and care. I have experience with caring for street animals overseas and have participated in TNR programs and administering medications.

A typical day

I love being outdoors, walking and hiking. Your pet will have plenty of exercise and fresh air if that's what they need. I also enjoy playtime, interactive toys and cuddles if your pet prefers to chill.

Reliable and Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

With over 25 years of experience as a devoted pet owner, I've had the privilege of caring for a variety of animals. My passion for furry friends is evident in my commitment to providing loving and attentive care. I've honed my pet care skills through extensive volunteer work at ALERT and my foster care experience has further solidified my ability to provide a nurturing environment for pets in need. I've successfully cared for animals of all ages, from playful kittens to elderly dogs. I have experience with bunnies, hedgehogs, snakes and more, ensuring their comfort and well-being. You can be assured that while walking your dog, my main priority is supervising them – watching what they're sniffing and ensuring they don't eat anything they shouldn't. I'll only briefly use my phone for a quick photo or to check our route. As a pet sitter, I'm dedicated to providing personalised care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I'm committed to maintaining a clean and safe environment, providing regular exercise, and administering medication as needed. I'm also happy to provide updates and photos to keep you informed while you're away. Let's keep your furry friend happy and healthy!

Michelle did a wonderful job taking care of our fur babies . She was appreciative of the notes I left and followed all feeding instructions which was very helpful as we have a couple of fussy eaters . House was left nice & clean. Would definitely use Michelle to care for our fur babies again 😊

Michelle is an amazing dog sitter and walker. She is extremely attentive to my boy Winston, and the amount she cares is evident. You will feel so at ease with her presence around your animals. She is truly amazing at what she does.
