Specializing in Cats, Olive Branch

Pet care experience

I have been pet sitting full time since 2011 and have a long list of happy kitty friends with satisfied owners from all over Desoto County. I'm happy to adapt to the routines and schedules your cats are accustomed to, and I’ve become pretty proficient at administering meds and insulin injections. I haven't run into a cat whose company I didn't enjoy, and I’ve even been able to win over some of the super shy bed-hider-unders! Unlike most sitters on Rover, I charge a flat rate, which includes all of your pets. There are no additional fees for any reason, ever. This means $25 per drop in visit (or $100 per night if house sitting) covers unlimited pets. for most people, this makes my rates quite a bargain!

Michelle J. is THE absolute best! I was away for 10 days. I was very anxious about leaving my feline babies with anyone. 3 of them were busy kittens nearing 1 year old this month Michelle eased my anxiety while I was away with awesome pictures and videos of them adjusting and enjoying themselves. On the day thatI returned, 2 of my rival cats ( the kittens' mama and my 1st eldest female cats ) touched noses for the very first time in my presence!! Michelle has a peaceful , loving demeanor that I believe rubbed of on my babies. Hear me when I say, she's the best! 💚

Michelle is one of those quiet heroes we hear about; the kind who gives so much of herself to benefit others. In Michelle's case, her love of animals shines when she goes that extra mile or two, often unasked but always appreciated. I've used Michelle for 4 years, but it seems longer. She is like a member of my family now. I rescue cats, and often they come with aggressive Cattitude and sometimes medical needs. Michelle has never complained or told me she can't do something that I ask. Her willingness to help, no matter what, is what makes her a star in my eyes. Plus it helps that my cats sincerely adore her. I give Michelle a ten star rating for her high quality of work. You won't be sorry you hired her.

Michelle is FANTASTIC with our two dogs! They love her. She always comes when she's scheduled and we don't have to worry about anything when she house-sits. It's wonderful to have someone we can trust take care of our boys in their own environment when we're gone. We would HIGHLY recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

Every drop in visit is fully customizable to your wishes and the needs of your pets. Visits will generally include feeding, washing food and water bowls, litter box scooping, administering meds (including pills and insulin injections), snuggling on the couch, playing with toys (the fishing pole type is my favorite!) and anything else you can come up with. Drop in visits usually take around half an hour, and cats may need one or two visits a day, depending on food and medication schedules. I do require at least one visit per day, both for safety reasons and because many cats are very social members of the family and will experience anxiety if alone for more than 24 hours.

Information Michelle J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cats require any special care or medication, or if you just have preferences I should take into account. I have experience with a variety of health and medical issues and strive for absolute excellence in cat care.

A typical day

Every cat has his or her own unique needs, personality, and routines, so each visit is fully customizable. Let me know what you hope for and I'll be sure to keep your kitties safe, healthy, and happy while you're away from home.

As a full time pet sitter, I’m able to customize my schedule based on the pets who need care on any given day. I start visits at 7am and can do the later drop ins as late as 9pm if needed. I only serve the City of Olive Branch, so that I can provide the best care and give every pet the time and attention they deserve without having to worry so much about the drive time to the next visit.
