Highlights
Pet care experience
The loving care your pet deserves.
Hi, I'm Michelle🐾 Animals have been at the heart of my life since childhood. Recently, my family said a heartbroken goodbye to our beloved 14.5-year-old dog, Ozzie. I deeply miss the presence, joy, and unconditional love that pets bring to a home. I would consider it an absolute privilege to care for yours and look after them just like family. My husband, Phil, joins me on all overnight house sits, meaning your pets get double the love, attention, and security while you are away. Whether you have an energetic pup who needs a dedicated walk or a quiet cat who prefers independent fuss, we adapt completely to their routines. 🛡️ For Your Total Peace of Mind: • Fully Independently Insured: Beyond the basic platform guarantee, I hold comprehensive UK Pet Business Insurance (including Public Liability, Care/Custody/Control, and Key Cover). • Legal & Safe: Fully compliant with local Portsmouth City Council PSPOs for dog walking and the UK Highway Code for secure animal transit. • Cat & Dog Friendly: Experienced with everything from senior dog care to managing microchip cat flaps and strict feeding schedules. We always love to arrange a complimentary Meet & Greet beforehand to ensure we are a perfect fit for your furry family members!

I will look after your pet in your home and respect both and treat them with the utmost care and love. I am happy to follow all instructions that you leave.
Ratings and reviews
Michelle is just so lovely! The minute we met her she had such a warmth about her and such a beautiful loving attitude towards Twiggy! We were updated with pictures and how Twiggy was doing throughout the day! The house was left untouched and Twiggy was a very happy baby when we came home! 100% will be using Michelle again!
Superb. Came home to happy dogs and spotless house. Thank you so much.
My mind was put at ease as soon as I met Michelle as she interacted with my two dogs so beautifully, I knew they would be in safe hands. The photo updates were lovely. Thank you.
Michelle and her husband Phil are literally our fairy dog parents✨🧡 We really struggled to find a sitter for our dog Rolo - a 40kg rescue mastiff entire male. Michelle and Phil took the time to meet him beforehand and even researched into his breed and bought along a whole bag full of recycled toilet roll tubes to make into enrichment toys for him to shred!🥰 The care they provided to our boy was exceptional, the communication was excellent with lovely updates and our boy had an absolutely lovely time whilst we were away. You really can’t put a price on the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe, happy and so well cared for. Michelle and Phil are simply gold dust ✨ We couldn’t recommend them enough!
Excellent would recommend to anyone
Michelle was great, so quick to respond and helped in a last minute hurry. Beretta can be a handful but I felt very much at ease with her and her husband sitting him. Would definitely book again! Thanks Michelle!
