Trained Dog Lover - Active Breeds!

Pet care experience

After 5 years in Denver, Colorado and a booming local Rover business there, Keegan (the Border Collie) and I have become residents of St. Petersburg, Florida. For those that I did not get a chance to say goodbye to, you will all be missed! About us: We are a on the way to both TPA and PIE airports. I have always had active, agility superstar border collies and have expertise in Agility and Obedience training. Keegan is an agility and flyball trained champion and loves all other dogs. In my place at Lincoln Shores, we have a private fenced in Bark Park. We also have a wonderful home, where dogs come first.

Kuba had a great time with Michael and his pup! He came home happy and calm. Michael provided regular updates, photos and videos. I would absolutely recommend them!

Michael is an awesome sitter who took attentive care of our dog, while sending us multiple pictures and updates. His dog, Keegan, is a sweet boy whom our dog got along with perfectly. We will definitely be using Michael again in the future and will be recommending him to our friends and family.

It was Lu’s first time staying with Michael and Keegan. From the pictures she seemed right at home, hogging the couch. Her and Keegan got along great. Absolutely no issues. Can’t wait to use Michael and Keegan again.
