Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog-obsessed sitter with a permanent pug shadow
I’ve looked after pets for 23 years, and animals have always been part of my everyday life. I live with Gizmo the pug, my permanent shadow who’s convinced my bed belongs to both of us and two cats who think they run the house. Because of that, I’m used to juggling different temperaments, routines, and a lot of personality. Friends, family, and neighbours have relied on me for walking, feeding, meds, bath time, and keeping their pets calm and comfortable. I notice the small things, keep a steady routine, and treat every dog as if they’re part of my own slightly chaotic, very loved little crew.

Fantastic service!
Bernie had a great time with Michelle! She sent plenty of pics and kept us updated on how he was getting on. I have no doubt we will be sending Bernie back to her in the future, definitely recommend.
Wally had a lovely time with Michelle and her family. We got lots of updates with pictures and videos too which was lovely. We weren't at all worried about him so we could enjoy our break. Would definitely recommend.
Really friendly and welcoming, Stanley loved his time with Michelle!
Will use over and over again. Thank you dear Michelle and family. I never worry while he's with you

Schedule
I’m currently a SAHDM (if you know you know). I was made redundant in November so for the foreseeable my life is solely pet focussed
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I keep things steady, predictable, and low-stress. In my home, pets settle into a calm routine with regular walks, feeding times, and plenty of company. I have a large, secure garden for safe outdoor time, and Gizmo the pug usually acts as the welcoming committee. I manage introductions carefully so every animal feels comfortable. I supervise closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure each pet has its own quiet area to relax.
