Best Friend of Man's Best Friend

I've taken the pleasure of being a dog walker and sitter for friends and family for seven years now. As someone who's loved and said goodbye to beloved companions myself, the safety, health, and well-being of your pup is my first priority as a walker. Once trust is established, I hope to be able to give a bit of joy in return to our furry friends who do so for us!

Safety, trust & environment

During walks, my first priority is of course safety for your dog. I'm someone who's very aware of his surroundings and anticipates potentially dangerous situations. I also listen and pay attention very carefully to your dog, trusting their senses and intuition as well. I like to think your dog is guiding me as much as I'm guiding them. As someone who's lived in Albuquerque his entire life, I know this city very well and would only walk in places that I myself feel safe in.

Michael was great at taking care of Asami. She’s a shy girl but she warmed up to Michael and now they’re besties. He made sure to feed her the right amount of food that I set and made sure she had fresh water every day. I would definitely recommend him as a caring pet watcher.

Michael is a very trusting compassionate caring person, especially with dogs. I have trusted Michael multiple times to watch my dogs and he has always showed them love and respect. He also enjoys playing and engaging with them. Every-time he comes over to my house my dogs get so excited and never leave his side while he is over! In general, Michael is a dog lover. He will spot a dog at any function and show them affection and and play with them.

My dogs absolutely adore Micheal! I have a three year-old pity mix named Meatball and an 18-year-old terrier mix named Remy and both of them can be really skittish around men but their both always elated when they see Micheal. He has the perfect balance of firm and loving that my naughty little three year-old needs, and he handles my little old man with a beautiful tenderness as if Remy was his own. I would absolutely recommend Micheal for any pet parent that wants the best for their fur baby.

Good afternoon, Michael is one of the most compassionate and caring perons I have ever met. He enjoys being around dogs! In his life time, he has owned his own dogs and cared for them with the upmost care. He has cared for family members and friends dogs when they have gone on vacations, and they abousolutly trus him. I highly recommend Michael to care for other people's pets.

Schedule

Walking your dog fits naturally into my weekly routine of staying active. I'm someone that appreciates our environment and surroundings, so whether your dog prefers quiet neighborhoods, green parks, or trails, I'm happy to accommodate their preferences of walking in different places.

Every dog is different in their own way, so I’d like to learn as much as possible about their likes, dislikes, preferences, and needs when going for walks. Meet & greets are a great way to do that!
