Pet care experience
Had dogs since age of 3, raised/trained one when I was 10 years old, he lived for 18 years. Wasn’t my dog he was family. I trained him to the best of my abilities. He was a young Labrador named Rudy. I like to believe he lived for 18 years because of the love me and my family showed him. It was like a death in the family when he passed because he was family. I understand the amount of love owners have for their dogs and I would like to show those individuals who book with me that I can provide more than the just basic needs for their pets, I can also provide the love and care that they deserve and the comfort and security that the owners want and need.
Reviews
Mike was great with my 13-year-old bulldog. The person who normally watches my dog wasn't able to and Mike was very responsive and accommodating to all her needs treating her as if she were his own. We really appreciated all the updates he provided us and knew she was in good hands. Will definitely book again in the future.
Mike was great! He watched our 9 1/2 year old dog Minnie with heart issues and was wonderful with her. He made sure she got her medication twice a day. Kept us updated several times a day with how she was doing. If he had any questions or issues he contacted me right away. Minnie took a real liking to him and by the end they were best buddies! Thanks again Mike for taking such good care of our Minnie!
Micahel watched my 1 year old puppy, Willow, at his house two times (once for a week, and once for a night). And my puppy loved going over there! He takes great care of her, and always updates me with pictures and videos. He was watching her on her birthday and even got her a special birthday doggy pie and a birthday treat! He treated Willow like his own, and made me worry free while she was in his care. I definitely recommend him!
Delight working with Micahel. He treated my dogs with genuine respect and understanding, and in return they took to him as if familiar with him already. He kept me informed throughout the stay with texts and videos. Recommend and refer and will book again if I ever need to board them.

Well, of course, if it is the clients home, I will abide by the rules that they set, if it is a strict environment meaning certain areas are off-limits I don’t want them on furniture etc. I would 100% of abide by those rules. I used to watch dogs in multi million dollar apartments in Manhattan part time in battery Park, so I do know the strict environment of high end requests. Regarding my own home I will also follow any rules that the owner will set if they don’t want them on any furniture based on certain training regime, totally understandable. We always have fresh sheets and couch covers over the furniture so if they are allowed on couches or beds, I’m kind of neat freak, so I’m always washing my sheets lol. I am very loving and caring and I try to stay outdoors with him as much as possible. I understand that when a dog is outside and they’re brain is stimulated more, increases their capacity intellectually. Regarding diet totally up to owner I will abide by that 100% to whatever they decide. I have bathtubs also if owner wants them washed, newly installed bathtubs keep them extremely clean. And with any cleaning products that are used in the house they are all pet friendly. I can guarantee you that.

Information Michael T. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if a certain dog is afraid of certain things as well as known dangers the owners are aware of. Also medical needs if they are prescribed any certain prescriptions. I need to know the delicacy of how they should be delivered for the dog and how sensitive and mentally aware they are going to be upon receiving the medication.
A typical day
Based on the type of dog, I analyze what the dog needs physically to stimulated mind and body. I’m very knowledgeable of many breeds, and what it’s physical and mental requirements are needed to stimulate the dog/pet. Meaning every dog needs a certain requirement in order for their mind to increase intelligence also to avoid certain mental disorders like anxiety, depression. Also includes showing them constant love and affection.

Currently taking a hiatus, from my pass job. I used to work in Manhattan at a hospital known as hospital for special surgery. I was a neurophysiology technician (sounds more important than it is trust me). Manhattan was definitely a little overrated plus the job that I was employed during the time I realize the ceiling for growth was very low.
