“I’ve known Michelle for years, and her kind and compassionate nature makes her a wonderful caretaker. She’s always been an animal lover, and she’s taken a lot of time, patience, and love in training her own doggo, Zoso. She has years of experience working with her own pets as well as animals on the farm. She’s not intimidated my administering medicine and special care to animals who need it. She’s consistent and detail-oriented, and would make a great sitter to a variety of pets.”
