Pet care experience

Your fur baby new best friend

My love for animals started at a young age, growing up in a family that deeply cherishes pets. Being an only child, animals have always been my best friends, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. I have experience with both cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. Back home in Burma, I own a Rottweiler, a Corgi, a Burmese dog, a Ragdoll, and a Black Cat, all of whom I trained and cared for before moving to the U.S. for work. While in college here in Seattle, I had two cats, Coco and Yo-Yo, who I later took back home during the pandemic to be with my family. Due to my job’s requirements, I had to return to the U.S., leaving my beloved pets with my family, and I miss them dearly. Currently, I work from home as a contractor for a consulting company, giving me plenty of free time to care for pets while I’m not in meetings. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a rooftop walking area and in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for dog walks. Over the years, I’ve frequently pet-sat for my close friends and their families, caring for their older dogs, large and small breeds, and even their cats while they travel or handle their busy schedules. Some of the pets I’ve looked after include a Pitbull, a Labrador, and a variety of mixed breeds. I also have experience caring for post-operation dogs and senior dogs that require medication and special attention. I understand how important it is to provide gentle, patient, and attentive care, ensuring they are comfortable and well taken care of during their recovery or daily routine. Pets are a huge part of my life, and caring for them is my passion. I’m single, which means I have the flexibility and time to dedicate to something I truly love spending time with animals! Not only does this bring me joy, but it also helps me save for my dream vacations. Whether it’s walking, playing, training, or just providing companionship, I’d love to take care of your furry family member with the same love and attention I give my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! 🐶🐱💛

Michelle was wonderful! She took great care of my puppy, gave him lots of attention, and was very attentive to his needs. She sent me updates constantly throughout the day and always let me know when something was happening and she needed help. I appreciate the amazing care she provided for Alfie and will definitely reach out to her in the future! Thanks Michelle 🩷

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I have a highly flexible schedule, allowing me to cater to your pet’s specific needs. My mornings begin early with coffee, reading, and checking emails, followed by dedicated walks for the pets in my care. I ensure they receive regular exercise, feeding, and playtime according to their routine, whether in the morning, noon, or evening. I understand the importance of consistency and am always willing to adjust my schedule to maintain their comfort and well-being. Your pet’s happiness, health, and routine are my top priorities.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe that true pet care requires attention to detail and an intuitive understanding of each animal’s unique needs. It’s not just about feeding and walking; it’s about reading their body language, sensing their emotions, and providing the comfort they need. Animals have an incredible ability to sense sincerity. You cannot pretend with them 😅they know when someone is a true pet lover. A mutual respect and clear communication ensures the best care for your pet. Every action I take is with genuine thought, love, and dedication 🥹because pets aren’t just animals; they are family.

A typical day

We will go to parks near the apartment. Go for nice walks and give a lot of attention and snuggles when they are missing their humans.
