About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. I grew up with horses, cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, and chickens. I have done some volunteering at the Cherryland Animal Shelter and have taken some of the dogs on some fun adoption events. I don’t have any pets of my own at this point in my life and would really like to be able to spend time with yours when you want to get away. I like to visit my son who has two dogs, a black lab an American bulldog so I can take them for walks and cuddle up with them. I am single and own my own home so I definitely could bring your dog to my house if necessary. One of my favorite hobbies is walking so I definitely can’t wait to take your dog/s for walks. I am a nurse that works with the electronic medical record and currently working from home.

Michael R.
“I have known Michael ( MIC) for several years. Recently ,I was traveling and I did not want to subject my toy poodle Cody to a typical day care. Mic volunteered to look after him.He recently lost his dog of 16 years and is not ready for another pup just yet. Mic walked Cody everyday and I could tell he really enjoyed having a pup around. I never worried about his care while I was gone. I would highly recommend Mic.”
