I am a passionate soul, who's loyal

Pet care experience

*CERTIFIED ANIMAL CARE PROFESSIONAL* Hello and thank you for stopping by! My name is Michelle and I would like to help you care for your four-legged baby. I have owned and cared for more than 4 animals in my life and have made sure that they lived happy, healthy and stimulating lives! I am an honours graduate of the Animal Care Technician program from Sheridan College. Most recently, I have become an active dog walker in my community, as I was craving that interaction. I believe it takes a passionate soul to love and respect all animals, and to be respected and loved in return. I am honest, reliable and loyal to a fault, much like our fur babies. Your beloved family member will quickly become my family member as well! I don't have any breed preferences. I understand how hard it can be to manage your fur baby when you work long hours, or having to look after the other members in your family, making dinner or even finding time to do laundry - but have no fear! This is why I want to be here for YOU! I am able and thrilled to provide the time, patience, energy, love and friendship to your canine or feline so you can continue to do YOU. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, and daily walks. I am also able to provide light grooming. And nail trims for cats. An initial meet and greet is very important for me, if possible. It allows me to introduce myself to the owner and their dog/cat. I encouraged the you to share with me everything you think is important for me to know about your fur baby! Where are they coming from (rescue, shelter)? What's their personality like? Their eating habits? How they are with other dogs/animals? How they are on and off the leash? Do they have any kind of injuries, have they had surgery, or are they on any medication that I should be aware of? I look forward to meeting you, your fur baby and becoming family! As I always say, "I love em like he/she was my own! PS Due to COVID I am only taking Dog walking requests in Ajax, ON.

Olive had the best time with Michelle. She felt right at home. Michelle gave us lots of updates and pictures so we know that olive was well loved. She will be our go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much!!

Michelle was great with my 2 year old lab, Clyde. Took him for walks, played with him and fed him. He seemed super happy when I got home and content.

Michelle kept our dog for a full day last Saturday. She was very friendly and enthusiastic and did her best to prepare herself to take excellent care of our dog. She sent videos to keep us updated and returned his bowls etc to us in better condition than when I sent them! I would definitely recommend Michelle for dog care based on our experience.

Michelle was a life saver for our 8 month old Frenchie Lola. She took amazing care of our dog and provided several updates during the weekend which made us feel at ease while away. Michelle was very polite, attentive and her care for animals is very evident. I would highly suggest using Michelle if you need your fur babies looked after, she will look after them like her own!

Information Michelle P. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know what commands they are familiar with, how do they respond to you. Do they have any special queues I should know, when they are trying to tell me they would like to go outside? Do they have any temperament quirks? The more information I have, the better, to ensure we are both having fun and remaining safe!
