Pet care experience

Human to Adaline and Gimore

I grew up surrounded by pets. As a child, we had a toy poodle named Pebbles. Currently I am a devoted human to Gilmore (10 year old cat) and Adaline (1 year old kitten) with extensive experience in caring for special needs pets, I understand the importance of trust, timeliness, and consistency as well as the compassion and affection needed to care for Gods adorable creatures. I have over 30 years of raising and nurturing multiple cats that were asthmatic. Atia required round the clock care, oral medications, as well as inhalers. My current cat, Gilmore requires oral medications that fluctuate with seasonal allergies and weather changes. My own pet ownership has taught me to be an advocate for a pet’s safety, care, and health. I make it a standard practice to request a pre-home visit to ensure I have a clear understanding of your pets needs, the location of their supplies, and to ask any additional questions about their preferences and routine.

Michelle was thorough and reliable in her care of our pet. We trusted her implicitly and were happy with the updates she gave us each time she came to feed and love on our cat.

Michelle provided loving, gentle care to our Archie for a three-week stint. We came home to an happy and exceedingly well-groomed cat. She is truly an animal whisperer. After every visit, she provided thorough updates with pictures. She also went above and beyond in keeping our home clean and our plants watered. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!

Thank you for being flexible with my last minute request. I trust you with my grumpy little guy and he is comfortable with a familiar person.
