About My Business

Hello! I’m Michelle, owner and founder of Michelle’s Caring Cat Sitting Services. I am a lifelong cat mom, having at least one cat ever since I was a child. My obsession with cats and the joy of helping others inspired the concept of providing cat sitting services to cat parents, while they’re away on vacation or if a helping hand with cat care is needed often.

My business was established in 2018 in the Niagara region, I have moved to my new and permanent home in Ottawa as of July 2023! My services include daily drop-in visits to your home where I check in on your cats and ensure their food and water are refilled, litter is cleaned, and they enjoy some playtime! You’ll also receive daily photo updates so you can see your kitties while you’re away!

My experience with cat care includes following specific feeding requirements, litter box scooping and thorough litter box cleaning, cleanup of dry and wet cat messes, administering pill or liquid medication, as well as subcutaneous fluids and insulin.

I am a Certified Professional Pet Sitter, Fear Free Certified Professional and certified in Pet First Aid through Walks N' Wags. I am also a member of Pet Sitters International and insured and bonded through PROfur.

Recently I attended Pet Sitter World 2024, an annual gathering hosted by Pet Sitters International providing Professional Pet Sitters the opportunity to connect and enhance their knowledge in the pet care industry through seminars, networking and discussions.

During the conference I had the incredible opportunity of participating in the panel discussion covering scheduling and safety and provided my insight from a solo sitter perspective!

Previous experience working in pet care includes receptionist at a veterinary clinic where I gained valuable knowledge in pet health as well as sales associate/keyholder at a pet store assisting pet parents with their purchases for their furry family members.

Supporting the Ottawa cat community is another passion of mine. November 2023 I began volunteering with Ottawa Stray Cat Rescue, participating in fundraising events to help raise awareness of the kitties in need of a furever home.

Ready to chat about your cat? We’ll get started with a complimentary meet and greet before my first visit!
