Where tails never stop wagging

Pet care experience

I am a work-from-home Nurse with 20 years of dog, cat, and rabbit care! My husband and I have a 10 month old Great Pyrenees mix and are wanting to open our home for daytime dog sitting on weekdays! We have a large fenced in yard and are located inside the belt line close to downtown Raleigh. My love and passion for animals make me and my house a safe place for your fur baby. I have raised 3 dogs from the age of 8 weeks old, and have taken care of 2 family senior pets, I also have experience with medication administration including eye drops, ear drops, pills and subcutaneous IV fluids. I am located close to several 24 hour vets in case of emergencies.

I cannot recommend Michelle highly enough! If you're looking for someone who is not only responsible but also genuinely cares for your furry family members, then look no further. Her warmth and genuine love for animals shone through immediately, putting our dogs at ease. Michelle demonstrated exceptional responsibility in every aspect of her care. Whether it was adhering to feeding schedules, ensuring they got plenty of exercise, or administering any necessary medications, she handled everything with professionalism and attention to detail. We never once worried about the well-being of our dogs while we were away. What truly sets Michelle apart, though, is her compassion. It's evident that she doesn't just see this as a job; she forms genuine connections with the animals in her care. Our dogs took to her immediately, and it was clear they were not just well-cared-for, but also loved and nurtured in our absence. Communication was also excellent throughout. Michelle provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which meant the world to us. It's hard being away from our pets, but her updates gave us peace of mind and allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. In conclusion, if you're searching for a dog sitter who is not only responsible but also caring and compassionate, Michelle is the perfect choice. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care she provided to our beloved pets and will undoubtedly be reaching out to her again in the future. Thank you, Michelle, for being such a fantastic caregiver to our furry family members!

Michelle has extensive experience as a loving pet owner, including several dogs, a cat, a rabbit, and even a parrot. In turn she understands the needs of a variety of animals. Her genuine love for animals shows in her care, attention, and affection. I wholeheartedly endorse her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and passionate caregiver for their pets!

Michelle has taken care of our pets for years. One of our dogs is over 12 years old and is deaf, and Michelle has always been very patient with her. She follows instructions well and is very trust worthy. I'd recommend her to anyone needing a daily assistance with their fur babies.
