Compassionate and empathetic sitter

Pet care experience

While I enjoy puppies and kittens, I really enjoy caring for senior animals. My absolute favorite dog breed is the pitties. Their blocky heads with those big smiles and full body wiggles just melt my heart every time I get the opportunity to meet one. I am not able to have animals in my own home so it brings me such joy to care for your babies when you need someone to love them in your absence. I have fostered puppies for a local dog rescue for a few years in the past and it was so fulfilling to see them go on to wonderful homes. I am still in contact with a few of my puppies new parents. It’s wonderful to see how they have grown. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, rabbits, and rats. I would be honored to care for your babies if you allow me the opportunity. This is my primary occupation so other than running errands and getting my son to and from school, I will be available to compassionately care for your baby(ies). I am detail oriented in following your baby’s schedule for food and potty breaks. I am able to crate as needed. I enjoy getting to know your baby and adapting to their personality and needs. For overnight care, I enjoy a cuddle just as much as they do so dog-pile (or cat-pile) in the bed is not an issue. For drop-in care I will take time to cuddle and connect with your baby. I have full conversations with them as we go about our tasks. It’s amazing how much they understand and can communicate back.

Michelle is amazing! She did drop in visits with little dog and took him to daycare everyday. She cuddled with him when he was done in the evening. Checked my mailed. So grateful for everything Michelle did for my best fur friend. Thank you

Michelle was great! Our little black cat Vixen came right up to her in our meet and greet and that never happens. She is usually shy and hides from strangers. We were gone for 10 days and the kitties were fat and happy when we got back. We will definitely call Michelle the next time that we travel.

Michelle was on time flexible, so engaged with the herd. One of mine is 4 lbs has to be picked up she is a mamas girl girl, but they made friends right away. I was so free of stress while being at the hospital with my husbands surgery.
