Pet care experience

Experienced Pet Owner/Rescuer. I would love to watch your furbaby ... dog, cat, ferret, bunny, guinea pig, fish, etc! I have had dogs and cats since i could crawl. I volunteered at our Humane Society for 15 yrs as a kennel cleaner and dog walker. I also have been affiliated with a small dog Rescue group for the last ~ 15 yrs and have fostered and adopted many dogs. I have special experience with older dogs, handicapped dogs, giving meds, and dogs rescued from commercial breeders. I currently have 1 dog and 1 cat. I can walk / petsit in your home up to 4 dogs/cats/misc small pets at a time.

Michelle was very good with Bella. I highly recommend using her and would use her again if I were in the area.

Michelle was excellent! My cat was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and needed medication at specific times during the day. The medication schedule had to be changed a couple of times due to some side effects my cat was having, and she took it in stride. I had a lot of anxiety leaving him, especially after he just got diagnosed with a thyroid disorder, but Michelle gave me updates after every visit, and was prompt in making sure he got his medication on time every day. Overall, he was very well taken care of 😊
