Loving Care for Pets & Homes

53, Real Estate Agent

If you are looking for someone who is fastidious about caring for your home, and will love your pets as my own, then look no further... I'm just a call away :)

I work in the real estate industry, for The Northern Group, in Tauranga and am looking for opportunities to look after someone's home and pets. I am an animal lover, I have had both labradors and miniature schnauzers as well as chickens, multiple cats of my own and fostering bundles of kittens for the SPCA, Since moving to the Bay of Plenty I have been short-term renting and taking up house/pet-sitting opportunities in and around Mount Maunganui, which I have really loved.

I'm a non-smoker and work from home, so am around most of each day to keep your pets company.

I love walking, especially near the sea, and since moving to the Bay, I have missed having a dog to share the walking with me.

Leaving your pets in the care of someone else is a huge decision. My love for animals shines through in my daily interactions, ensuring that your pets receive the affection and attention they deserve. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending quality time, I treat every pet as if they were my own.

I understand the importance of knowing your pets are happy and healthy to ensure your time away from them is not a stressful one, and I’m committed to keeping you updated on how things are going while you’re away with regular updates and photos. Your peace of mind and the happiness of your animals is my top priority.

I'd love the opportunity to have a chat with you to see if I'd be a great fit for your home and pets!

Michelle was a fantastic housesitter that we wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Her communication was clear and prompt and she was really helpful and proactive when any issues cropped up: Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our home and animals Michelle!

Michelle is absolutely fantastic, we’ve already booked our next sit! It was so lovely going away and knowing our pup and home were in such great hands.

Fantastic housesitter. My pets well cared for. Michelle sent me updates and pictures of my dogs on how they were doing. My house was left immaculate. So grateful for the peace of mind this gave me while I was away. I rate Michelle an excellent 10 out of 10. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much Karen, it was a pleasure getting to know you and the dogs x
Michelle is amazing! She is so lovely and we loved having her here. It's easy to see how she gets booked up so fast. I was 100% at ease leaving our pets with her while we were away. Our pup Mia was happy and comfortable with her straight away, basically ignored us and gave Michelle all the attention :-) and so we knew she was in good hands. Communication was great and coming home to a lovely clean and tidy home was the best. She even left us an amazing meal for us to enjoy on our first ... MORE

Love to come back again 😍
Just a few days before it was due this sit was stopped as I was having medical problems and did not go away.. Michelle was very understanding and flexible about the changes, I will happily contact her again.
 
PEGGY (Maketu North Island, Nov 2024 - 2 nights)
Thanks Peggy, as I've already done a sit for you previously not through this site, I was basing my review on that 😊
Highly recommend! Very Happy. We came home, to two happy, healthy and content kitty cats 😻😽 and the house is looking good too. We feel like we definitely picked the right person to be here in our home, while we were away. Thank you so much Michelle, for taking care of things for us, for looking after our precious fur babies and giving us that invaluable peace of mind. We're all very grateful, Thanks again 😊
