A typical day
Walks are where the owners prefer their fur kids to be walked/played at. Lots of play toys are great to have, for the puppies to the seniors! Treats are given with clarification by the owners (safety first, we don’t need any sick pups!) If the weather is above 85°F or below 25°F I limit walks to 15 minutes and the rest of the time is inside playing with your pet(s).

Pet care experience
Hello - thank you for stopping by to have a look at my business and information! My name is Michelle, and I grew up with various breeds of cats, dogs, and other mammals (rabbits, hamsters, etc.) along with several species of reptiles. I have over 20 years of experience caring for these wonderful critters, and I have not stopped loving it since! I currently own two cats, a horse, and soon another gecko! I used to have 2 wonderful dogs; sadly, they passed in 2024 – forever the best puppy dogs! I have experience caring for equines and some other farm animals. I have spent about 6 years caring for special needs pets, mostly dogs – I am open to learning how to care for other pets that are special needs. I do have experience giving medications (pills, liquids, I am still learning about medications requiring syringes with needles). For the past 20 years, I have devoted my life goal to ensuring the best possible care there is for my clients and their pets! I will love your pets unconditionally to the fullest while you are away and will cherish every moment with them! Every sitting job is done with care and respect for my client’s homes; I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own - everyone deserves to be well-loved and happy! Please note: I work Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays – from 10:30am to 12:30pm, and 4:30pm to 7:00pm. I do not offer 60-minute walks. I do offer constant care. This means I will not leave your home. Constant care includes: $15 per hour for 12 hours of care $25 per hour for 24 hours of care Cancellations: any cancellation after a sitting is booked results in a 50% refund to owner(s). This applies to all services.

Reviews


Michelle is absolutely amazing. This is our cats third time with her and every time has gone very smoothly. Her communication is excellent!
Nice job sending pictures and updates. Really helps us have confidence to relax on our trip.
The best cat Mama! Always communicates well, fair, great pics, and is extremely thorough. I think our cat likes Michelle better than us haha!
This was the first time we have had Michelle care for our 2 elderly pugs. She was attentive to all of their special needs, is very prompt with responses and will send lots of pictures of your pets to you which we loved getting.
