Dogs aren't pets, they're family!

Pet care experience

My fiance and I have two perfect family members: Ralph and Remi. Ralph (the pure white Coton) whom we rescued at eight weeks was diagnosed with a liver shunt soon after we brought him home. The entire process was scary and involved many medicines and a surgery. It was a bonding experience and we came out of it as best friends. Remi (the tri-color Coton) was from a very respectable breeder and has no special needs besides being a rambunctious puppy. I have experience with dogs with medical issues, older dogs, puppies, small and large breeds, I treat all of them as if they were my own family because they are part of yours. They will be in great hands, guaranteed! PS: If you ever have any questions about behavior and indications of liver shunts please contact me for information and videos of hepatic encephalopathy. The experience is scary and I will do whatever I can to help you understand and cope with an issue such as this.

I have a golden age 9 and havenese bichon mix age 10. Mike G has stayed the weekend many times when I have been called out of town. He is reliable; my boys love him and look forward to his visits. Mike makes himself available to come let the boys out and entertain them when on occasion I have to work late. He has two dogs of his own and he treats my guys as if they were his own. I can wholeheartedly recommend Mike G. Ro Meystrik

Mike has an amazing love for animals! His personality brings out the best in all the animals he comes in contact with. He also has great communication skills and works well with people. His passion is working with animals so this would be great for both him and the Rover company.

Information Mike G. would like to know about your pet

Knowing a breed would be helpful if I am not familiar with it. I will research general behaviors and idiosyncrasies to be prepared. If the dog has any health concerns, anxieties, or fears I would like to know so I can make them as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

Whatever the dog enjoys I will do for them. Fetch, running, tug-o-war, walks, or just plain hanging out. I am willing to give baths, administer medicines (pill or injections), or address any sanitary issues that may arise.
