About
Hello I love animals and I love to care for them and I love helping people so I started helping people and families with pet sitting and dog walking. The very first job I had was pet sitting for a friend of our family I helped take care of her cats while she was on vacation this was over 20 years ago. I am an experienced pet sitter and dog walker I am a hard, trustworthy and reliable worker. I also have 2 cats of my own and a guinea pig. One of my clients told me that having their animals at home and not having to take them some where makes their animals happy and they are happy too because they do not have to worry about taking them to a boarding place also what I charge is so much less plus they get personal attention from my visits and feel totally cared for in their home. I love what I do and I take pride in my work with every job I do and with every animal I care for. I look forward to helping you with your pet care needs too.
I really enjoy helping people and families care for their animals and I enjoy being a pet sitter and dog walker. It makes me very happy to know that people and families trust me to take care of their animals. When a customer asks me to help them again it means a lot to me that they want me to help them care for their pets again and that they are happy with the care and work I do, the most important thing is that the pets are happy and I take great care of them. Making animals happy especially when their owners are away on a trip or at work is very rewarding to me. People and families are so thankful to have their pets taken care of in their home where their animals are already comfortable and they do not have to take them to a boarding place that charges a lot of money. When my 10 year old son William is not in school he enjoys helping me with pet sitting and dog walking this brings me a lot of joy he loves and cares about animals very much too.

Everything wonderful Nothing negative at all. If there were 6 stars I would give her SEVEN (7). My cat Lucy loved her because Michelle took the time to play with her.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am very flexible with pricing. I usually ask for at least 9 or 10 dollars an hour to start I believe in working with what works for the customer and what they can afford especially with longer stays while people are away on a trip for example.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The new customer can email me and talk to me on the phone and text me. They are welcome to ask me questions and let me know all about the pet care that they need. Then we set up a time to meet in person and I meet you and your pet or pets and we can talk all about the care that they need and what you would like to be done and when you need the care and for how long you need me to help..
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
The training I have is the years that I have cared for animals I have helped care for animals for over 20 years. Every time I work for a person and family to help care for their animals I gain more experience each and every time and I learn so much about animals. I have learned so many great things about animals and caring for animals with all the pet sitting jobs and dog walking jobs that I have been so lucky to have over the years.
