Pet care experience

Animals are better than people!

I personally understand pets are more than just cute animals; they are family members, children, and siblings. I love animals and have been around them my entire life. I grew up in a farmhouse with pet chickens, goats, feral/indoor cats, bunnies, and a dog. I have a calm and gentle demeanor animals tend to gravitate to and trust. I love photography and often like to bring my camera and take nice pictures of your pets during my stay. If that is something that interests you let me know!

Micah provided excellent care for our dog. He was attentive and kept us updated with pictures and texts. We will definitely use Micah again.

Micah stayed at our home and watched our crazy cat while we were away. He was amazing! He sent updates daily and took great care of Oliver. We came home to a happy cat and a house that was cleaner than when we left. We will absolutely rebook Micah for our next trip!

Micah took excellent care of our crew! When a minor health issue with our senior dog came up, his communication was top notch and he handled things beautifully. We came home to well cared for babies and a house cleaner than when we left. Most amazingly, all the animals were calm, happy, and relaxed when we got home! We also received beautiful photos of them every day while we were gone. We will definitely hire him again and would be happy to give him a glowing recommendation to anyone !

Micah was awesome! He got along great with our Ruby and Lily. He asked all the right questions. When we were away and he wasn’t sure of something, he asked. He was a trooper with our Ruby who is afraid of bad weather and he handled it awesomely. He picked up after himself and left the house in great condition. Highly recommend!

Micah was so great for me and our fur family for a week while we were on vacation. This was the first time we had been away from any of them this long . Micah sent adorable pictures, clearly showing he earned everyone’s trust immediately. We felt relieved and comforted that someone could handle our rowdy bunch. Thank you so much Micah.

Home characteristics

Has no pets

Safety, trust & environment

Pets are family and deserve to be treated with respect and special care. I will provide walks, feeding, play, and am comfortable administering medications. I equally show respect and care while staying in your home. I will collect mail & packages, take out the trash, tidy after myself, and water plants. If you would like me to send pictures of your pets while you are away I am happy to oblige!

A typical day

As an animal lover I will give lots of love and attention to your pets. My goal is to give your pets as much if not more attention than they would on a normal day. I will take them out for walks, play with toys, and let them snuggle if they desire.

Let me know if your pets need any medication, have a particular routine, a favorite toy, etc. As much information as possible is super helpful. Do they tend to get into things? Are they a shoe chewer? Do they have a weak bladder? Are they ok around other people or pets on walks?
