Safety, trust & environment

I would only be able to care for your pet in your home. (I currently live in an apartment complex that limits the number of animals its tenants are allowed to have, and I am at the maximum!) I would follow whatever instructions you give me to care for your pet and would respect your home/belongings.

Information Michelle Z. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know if your pet has any special needs or if he/she has any behaviors (nipping, jumping, etc.) that I should be aware of.

A typical day

I love taking long walks with dogs and also enjoy a game of fetch or tug of war. If your dog has any favorite toys, I would gladly utilize those to get him/her in a playful mood! I have experience walking dogs in parks/on hiking trails and also in residential areas.

Pets

Purr-fect Pet Sitter, Cats & Dogs!

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats, but I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I was in middle school. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and stay with their pets while they were away. I currently have two female cats (Gretchen & Mischka) and one male dog (Francis) who I absolutely adore. I also volunteer at the Saratoga County Animal Shelter most weekends to help with cleaning cages and socializing the animals. (I am also Fear Free Certified! - See in Photos.)

Michelle was amazing! She stayed with our two dogs for a night and consistently sent us updates/pictures about them. Our pups loved her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Dogsitter! Kobe and Jeter can’t wait for Michelle to watch them again!

Michelle is prompt to respond to requests, she is punctual, kind, friendly and our dog is always happy to see her. We come home to a well cared for dog and feel confident leaving him. We highly recommend her.

Michelle stayed with our dog for the day. She sent us pictures and let us know everything was good. She is very polite, professional and very friendly with our dog. We came home to a happy dog. Thanks Michelle.
