About Michelle

Not available 3/7-21/7 as I'll be taking a break for a much needed holiday.

Very experienced long term animal owner is looking forward to caring for your pets, I have my own loveable ginger cats aged 14 and 13 since they were kittens so I've had extensive experience with my own pets for a very long time. Both my cats were street rescues having started their lives being born in water drains. I’ve been pet sitting for 7 years now so have had a wide variety of others peoples pets to look after during this time and return to many homes regularly.

Have previously owned and looked after rabbits, small birds and fish. Rest assured your pets will be well cared for.

I’ll ensure your beloved pet is fed, water refreshed and their space is tidy and comfortable for them. Unfortunately I’m unable to do dog walking but more than happy to engage in playtime in your home (afternoon visits only). Due to regular work commitments during the week my morning visits would be a quick visit but afternoon/evening visits will be longer and on weekends I will be free to stay much longer. Weekend morning visits will be between 7.00-8.00am and weekday/weekend afternoons are from 4.30pm onwards where I will stay for up to an hour. School holidays I have a lot more flexibility with my visits as I'm often not working my day job.

Services provided - regular routine of feeding followed, water bowls washed and refilled, litter/poop cleaned and/or replaced as required. I will also play with your pet, give them a brush or just chill out with them. I will spend time ensuring they are happy and settled before I leave. If you need any plants watered or mail brought in - no problem happy to help. I will always communicate how they are going and report any signs of stress or behaviours out of the normal and provide photos regularly.

Need someone last minute for a weekend away, I'm usually available at short notice.

Areas that I cover are - Mascot, Botany, Rosebery, Eastlakes, Waterloo and Zetland.

Please contact me to discuss your requirements. My calendar is always up to date so please let me know if there is a blockout period where you’re looking for some help and I’ll see if I can work around these other bookings, it all depends on location and requirements.

Specific Skills

I speak English
+20 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
Having rescued my own cats from a life in the streets I have a great understanding of how sensitive they can be. Also being a dog owner of a Labrador up until recently whom we raised from a very small fearful pup to a confident elderly adult I have a good knowledge of training techniques and the care and time needed with a dog to gain trust and show them all the love they deserve. Having pets my whole life from such a young age has given me a whole new prospective and view of their need just to be wanted and loved in a safe environment and this is why I pet sit.
