Fun loving caretaker

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of friends dogs for over 8 years; I'm usually the go to person when someone is going on vacation. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, especially older dogs that require medication and special diet, as well as many other "fur babies". Throughout my childhood I had animals of all shapes and sizes, such as rats, birds, and my personal favorite, Pigs, so I'm comfortable with most animals. I love going on walks and taking fur babies with me. When house sitting I will water plants, take out garbage, scoop poop, and bring in the mail, as well as any other tasks that are agreed upon. I understand that leaving your pets with someone can be a stressful decision, I hope to make that decision a little easier. Can't wait to meet you and your pet!!

We had a finicky dog and therefore we had trouble finding a sitter. Michelle came over for her visit and our dog was intrigued, but not sold on her. I had Michelle come back for a second visit and to walk her, and we had success. We hired Michelle to stay at our home for a week while we were out of the country. All went well and we had a very happy dog! Can't thank her enough!

Michelle took very good care of our dog and our house while we were away. She is very professional and quickly responds to all inquiries. Highly recommended

Michelle was wonderful! She stayed with our two older dogs for an extended weekend, and we couldn't be happier. The dogs were happy to see us when we got home, but there was no sign of stress on their part. (They greeted us, and then went back to napping.) Michelle kept in touch with us and send photos of the dogs throughout her stay. When we got home, the house looked great, everything was neat and tidy. What a nice experience for all of us! Thank you Michelle!
