Pet care experience

Home fulltime :) Will walk your dog

We are a pet-friendly home with one cat, two older kids who love dogs and all animals, and myself who will take gentle care of your dog/s, as well as cats, and/or all other animals while you are away. No type of animal (unless aggressive) will likely be turned away. I have loved and cared for my own pet dogs, cats, birds, and other critters my entire life, and I know and understand that you are trusting me to care for a member of your family. We do not take this responsibility lightly. In addition to several years of pet care, I have also had experience and training with professional bathing and grooming of dogs and cats, and caring for special-needs animals, including puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats including those with arthritis and diabetes, administering medicine, and giving injections and subcutaneous fluids. Our home is relaxed and open, with "safe spaces" where we can keep your pet if they want or need their own room. We live in a friendly, calm neighborhood, great for dog-walking, and we love to go for walks and play! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule in order to accommodate your needs and I look forward to working with you and giving your special loved ones the care that they want, need, and deserve.

Michelle took wonderful care of our cats while we were away on a cruise. She provided regular updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear our cats were well cared for and comfortable. We truly couldn’t be happier with her service and attention to detail. We would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Michelle was great! We were traveling and she was able to accommodate some last minute plans made with family where we couldn't take our 2 small dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

We know Phoebe is getting excellent care! It gives us such a peace of mind knowing she's in a loving home. We love the pictures too.

Left my two dogs with Michelle for a trial overnight prior to a two week trip. They did great! Came home happy and healthy! I have no reservations leaving them with her for two weeks. I know they will be well cared for!

We are very pleased with the excellent care our little girl received from Michelle. It's great to know your fur babies are being well taken care of when you're away from them.
