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 :)

Michelle was fantastic and was able to drop everything to come look after our babies on very very short notice. As soon as she visited we knew she would be perfect - she has great knowledge and skill and our babies loved her.

Michelle had great communication with us and had great rapport with our dogs. We returned home to find 2 happy dogs. We would definately recommend Michelle to other pet owners. :-)
