About Michelle

My name is Michelle. Growing up on a farm made me an animal lover from day one. I have rescued many animals and adopted a few of my own on the way.

My house currently consists of three cats. Lucy, Reds and Megs. Megs and Reds were kitties who got on the band wagon while I drove by. Lucy is our newest little baby. Of course all three cats are more in love with my husband then with I. How can I blame them?

I have experience giving medication orally and intravenously. I have lots of experience with dogs. I've had a dog my whole life and was a volunteer dog walker at the SPCA in Vancouver for one year and at the WHS for three years. I'll take care of your babies like I would take care of mine.

Dog walking usually is 15 for 30 mins and 30 for an hour.

On visits I would complete any task needed from taking in the mail to watering plants. Visits are anywhere from 30 to an hour, depending on what is needed for your precious pet.

House sitting I stay in your home and take care of your pet like you would. I will send you photos of your pet and updates while you are away. You will come home and find you house as you left it. I'm clean and responsible. I am know to also weed gardens, water your lawn...anything you would need in your absence.

I typically don't bring pets into my home except for special circumstances. Example, cat is alone for more then a week. A couple of visits a day I find doesn't cut it. Especially if the cat is an only fur baby.

I hope I've given you enough information about myself to keep you mind at peace. I look forward to hearing from you.

First time Michelle has watched my motley crew 4 cats & a dog). I was feeling apprehensive as it’s been some time since I’ve had to enlist a pet sitter. I needn’t have worried. Michelle took great care of my fur kids and even my extremely shy guy was comfortable enough not to hide.

Definitely recommend and will be a return client!

House Sitting
Ashley & Kyle, 2024-01-01

This was my first time using a pet/house sitter service and it went better than I could have ever imagined! Michelle is such a wonderful lady with a good soul and strong cat-lady spirit that made her perfectly suited to watch our anxious cat Jann. Michelle spent the week with Jann over the Christmas holidays and our cat warmed up to her instantly - something we weren't sure was even going to happen!

Michelle kept us in the loop about Jann throughout the week and became a neighborhood hit in our condo building. Her care, attention, and patience with animals was evident as she made our Jann feel relaxed and safe, despite having a new person in her home turf.

In addition to watching our pet, Michelle was the perfect house guest. Clean, tidy and friendly with the neighbors. We had no worries about leaving our space in her hands the minute we met her.

We cannot recommend Michelle enough to anyone who is looking for an extremely thoughtful pet sitter! 10/10!
