A dog can be a dose of happiness.

Pet care experience

Thank you for considering my pet boarding and walking services. I am excited to offer you a comfortable and caring environment for your furry friend while you are away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find the right care for your beloved pets. I am pleased to inform you that I have two properties available for your pets. The first is a cozy townhome located in an easily accessible area near mt helena with lots of hiking trails for the dogs The second is a beautiful cabin property near clancy with plenty of land and a small creek in the front yard, providing ample space for playtime. As for my services, I offer overnight boarding and dog walking. I understand that holidays can be a challenging time to find pet care, and I am available to take on new clients during this time. Additionally, I have a laid-back 10-year-old Weimaraner who gets along well with other dogs and cats. If requested I have family to watch him if needed I believe in fair pricing and strive to offer competitive rates for my services. On the rover app is an overview of my pricing also can be negotiable Overnight Boarding: per night Dog Walking housesitting Please note that these prices are subject to change based on the specific needs of your pet(s). I will work with you to create a customized plan that meets your pet's needs and your budget. Finally, I have a reliable 4Runner with plenty of room for pet transportation. If needed, I can pick up and drop off your pets for free, In the Helena area outside of Helena would be a gas fee if your in the Butte,Missoula,bozemon area Thank you for considering my pet care services. I look forward to meeting you your furry friend soon. Sincerely, Mich

Mitch did an amazing job looking after our fur babies! Our animals loved him. On top of that he also offered to take care of the house while we were gone. We will definitely be using him again for future needs. Highly recommend!!!

Mich is a natural with both cats and dogs! His demeanor is very approachable. I have a bossy and shy cat and he was able to recognize the different techniques they both require. He is patient and it is obvious that he cares about animals and has ample experience with them. He pays attention to detail and easily manages 'fussy' requests. He is easy to communicate with. I trust him with my cat family and am grateful anytime he is available to watch them.
