Pet care experience

Active, fun dog & cat whisperer

I've had cats and dogs, taken care of street animals and boarded friend's pets throughout my life. I never lost a pet (was always responsible w/ their care & safety). I cared for my family's elderly dogs, which has taught me the value of caring for a vulnerable pet in need, caring for pets w/ chronic health issues, and selflessness, kindness, and compassion for the elderly/vulnerable. I adore animals and love making them feel happy, safe, and comfortable. **MEDICAL ISSUES: I have much experience with pets w/ medical issues (asthma, kidney disease, diabetes, elderly, end of life, etc). Pets with diabetes and medical issues are WELCOME. I understand the challenges of caring for a pet with chronic health issues, and am happy to attend to your pet's medical issues & follow medical instructions closely. Please contact me prior to discuss your pets particular medical needs. SCHEDULE: I work from home. Your pet will be treated like one of my own and attended to throughout the day, per their usual schedule.

Michelle took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. She was very caring with them and communicative with us. Even our scaredy cat eventually warmed up to her! We would definitely book Michelle again.

Michelle took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. She went above and beyond expectations - playing with her, taking her all around town, and sending photos and updates. We will definitely be delighted to have her again next time we are in need of doggie care.

Pets

A typical day

I love to be active and outdoors. I will walk your dog at quick pace so they are tired by time they get back home. I'll play w your kitty so that he/she feels relaxed, comfortable, content, and happy.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Michelle can host up to 1 pet per night
DOGS: Energy levels, routine, and whether they have any special/medical needs. I'd like to know if your dog had aggressive interactions with people or a history of trauma, in which case I will be extra gentle and attentive. CATS: With kitties, I feel I'm a cat whisperer and will be able to figure out exactly what your kitty needs regarding their energy, interests and emotional needs. I'd like to know your kitty's eating habits, medical needs, and if they experience stress or reduced appetite when family is away. I adore kitties and would absolutely love to make your kitty feel comfortable, safe, and at home!
