Here to Love on your Fur Baby

From the age of 5 I learned the importance of taking good care of animals growing up on my parents full scale Cow/Calf farm. I’ve had many dogs and cats throughout my life, cared for family members animals, and friends when they have went out of town. Raising animals and loving on them is in my blood and it’s a fun thing to do for me. My grown up job I worked with most of the names in agriculture that you probably buy their products in the grocery store! I love dogs, cats, birds, you name it and would love to care for your sweet baby! In my neighborhood we have a large backyard with steps that lead down to it and nice fresh grass! We also have a park nearby that I’d love to walk your pup to!

We made last minute plans to go away and Mike was very accommodating and patient with us as we figured out our departure time. He took Elsa in with no problems (after a Meet & Greet)! Elsa gets a little anxious with other dogs around when it's feeding time, but seemed to be very comfortable at Mike's and ate without concern. She must have had a great time, because when we picked her up, she was still her happy-go-lucky self. No sign of anxiety at all!

I can’t say enough great things about Mike! My dog’s stay with him was the best experience I’ve ever had with a pet sitter. Usually my dog is at my side wanting to leave when I pick him up, but he didn’t seem to want to leave Mike’s. It was so sweet. My dog is a very old guy and I felt so comfortable leaving him at Mike’s. I hope my dog has the opportunity to visit Mike again.

Michael and his daughter did a great job taking care of Milo! I received regular updates on how he was doing, and I felt he was well cared for. I will definitely be booking again!
