About Michelle

My motivation to be a pet sitter lies with the fact that I have a passion for animals as well as the health and care of them. I love all animals, big and small, and will go out of my way to ensure your pet is taken care of, ensuring they recieve my undivded attention.

I currently work as a vet nurse but love to pet sit and/or dog walk with the rest if my time. I have a vehicle which allows me to have a reliable mode of transport to reach your location. With your permission, I can also use this vehicle to transport your pet to the dog park, vet appoinments etc. I have gained a lot of experience from various different pet sitting jobs, including overseas house/pet sitting. As well as this, I am a qualified veterinary nurse and have had experience in various animal facilities including the SPCA and vet clinics. Therefore, I am able to enusre the best care is given; including care of young, geriatric or ill animals. I am confident with types of demenours as well medicating animals and nursing them if required. I also hold a pet first aid certificate. I have no restrictions to the species, size or breed of pet. I can offer: Overnight pet/house sitting Day visits Dog walking (40 min - 1hr = $20... Can walk longer if needed for an extra charge (: ) Grooming (Nail clipping, bathing etc) And more, just ask! I have many pet sitting references if required :)

I would recommend Michelle to anyone who would like a loving person to mind their dog. Michelle was easy to communicate with and went the extra mile for Pipi.
