Cat care experience
Hi! My name is Michelle. I work from home and have lots of flexibility in my schedule. Cats are my favorite fur friends! I have always had cats in my home and we currently have 5. I was a volunteer for 8 years with an animal rescue where I fostered over 500 cats (not all at the same time) lol! Between fostering and my own kitties, I have extensive knowledge of cat care and behavior. I also have a lot of experience with elderly and special needs kitties such as cats with thyroid issues, hypertension, diabetes, FIP, and those prone to seizures. I am skilled at administering medications: oral medications (pills and compounds), dermal, and injections. My in-home visits include: Feedings - providing clean plates and bowls with fresh food and water. Washing the dirty dishes. Litter - scooping litter boxes and throwing the waste in the outside trash bin. Treats - if allowed. Medicine - timely administration of medication(s), as needed and instructed. Grooming - as needed Cleaning - checking your home for any kitty accidents that need to be cleaned up Fun time! The best part - lots of play time and pets, if kitty allows. I can also bring in mail and packages.
Reviews
Michelle was amazing. Our cats had just been moved into a new house and were anxious, hiding, and completely out of their routine, so we were honestly worried about leaving them. But we didn’t need to be. Michelle has such a calm, patient way with cats, and it was so encouraging to watch them come out of their shells for her. Every visit came with lots of photos and videos, with little updates on each of the cats, so we always knew how they were doing. It was obvious she wasn’t just “going through the motions”… she was really spending time with them and getting to know their personalities. She also went above and beyond in so many little ways, bringing in packages, helping us with a few things around the house, and even bringing fresh catnip from her own garden for them. The biggest compliment I can give is that I think our cats were genuinely happy to see her every day. That gave us so much peace of mind during a stressful week. We’d trust Michelle with them again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.
Peaches is a very shy cat and I worry about her when I leave her with a new person but Michelle put me at ease and I was happy to see her positive updates so I didn’t have to worry about my cat. She was in very good hands!
Michelle was excellent and took such great care of our cats while we were away. She provided daily updates and kept us informed on how they were settling in which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their comfort and well being. We would absolutely book with Michelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!
Michelle is reliable, professional and a great communicator. We feel at ease knowing our cat is well cared for. Thank you Michelle!
