About Michelle

Hello pet owners! I am here to help you with your pet care needs..

I have now worked in the animal behaviour and training industry for 4 years. During this time I have attended animal behaviour and training seminars, workshops and hutch include mechanical skills along with theory. I am currently studying separation anxiety.

Why choose me? Because I only follow science and research backed techniques.

All include:-

Respect

Time

Patience

Animals have been a part of my whole life, from dogs to cats to fish. I love helping people with their animal care and ensuring its whats best for the animal. I love to walk, cuddle, and ensure they are comfortable at all times.

I have worked with horses so am confident handling larger animals, horses are practically big dogs with hoofs right? I know it can make things a lot harder when your pet is bigger as you need the peace of mind that the handler will be able to keep them safe.

The reason I have choose to become a regular pet sitter is down to me knowing what it feels like to be a pet owner who has a busy life and needs access to care or to just have a holiday.

I offer a calm but fun environment for more reserved pets but an energetic fun time for pets who have energy to burn in order to ensure a good nights sleep for both. I live in a pet friendly part of Sydney with access to lots of parks. I live close to Elizabeth Bay and centennial is a swift drive away.

Availability- Monday- Friday

Weekends please see my diary for availability.

Walks & Home visits between 30-60 mins. Depending on age/needs. Playtime and cuddles included. Ball or tug or whatever interactive game your dog likes. All services up to 1 hour.

If you want your dog off leash I can accommodate! Embarkation Park, Lawrence Hargraves Reserve, Beare Park, Macleay Reserve, Rushcutters Bay Park to name a few.

If you prefer I can just simply enjoy time with your pets at home, and take your pet on near home walks and they can relax in the safety of their own home.

I hope this helps you to get a feel for my caring nature and enables you to see why I love to care for all animals.

If your looking to socialise your “choosy” dog I can be of assistance with my 3.5 year old puppy. He loves to play with dogs that are older(not necessarily bigger) than him!

Big or small they all deserve love 💗

Michelle has been amazing helping me out with my fur baby. She takes him out every week, sends photos & videos while out for the walk. Our boy has separation anxiety and she has spent a lot of time giving us tips & tricks to help deal with this. Highly recommend Michelle 😊

Specific Skills

I speak English & Other
+10 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
Growing up as a child with pet Boarder Collies and a Jack Russell, I learned quickly dogs have needs. I wasn’t put off I just focused on learning more. I still have a working breed dog now. I have worked one-on-one in Behaviour Modification for a well respected eastern suburbs company. I have worked in Group Dog walks and Dog Handling. Currently work at a training organisation who specialises Animal Behaviour & Training. I only use positive reinforcement methods (because it is science, evidence and research backed) If you have any questions please ask I am more than happy to answer.
