Highlights
Pet care experience
Safe, Playful, Fun Visits
I've had dogs and cats all my life. My first paying job was in fifth grade, watching Frito, a 10 year old grumpy but lovable Chihuahua, while his lawyer owner traveled for court cases. I'll keep your pup safe on walks and will provide a quality play break, and I'm an expert at cat toys and litter box cleaning.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a row house with a fenced back yard, and our neighborhood is great for long walks and play sessions in the park.
Ratings and reviews
Micheal has been great. He is prompt and reliable and my dog looks forward to his arrival every day.
Michael took excellent care of my dog while I was traveling. My dog can be a little difficult on walks around other dogs, and Michael had no issue taking him on walks and managing his difficulties. He sent regular updates and pictures while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend Michael, and I hope he’s able to watch my dog again!

Ruby and I are very grateful to have Michael helping us out 😺😺A very trustworthy pet companion and neighbor—thanks again Michael!

Michael took great care of our elderly dog and younger cat. We received frequent updates with photos documenting their days. Michael’s very nice, responsive, thorough and tidy.

Michael was exceptional, as always!

Michael went above and beyond by agreeing to an extra drop in day on short notice, dealing with a faulty door lock, cleaning up cat throw up, and paying an extra visit to check on my sick cat. I am very grateful for his flexibility and very high level of care for my cat.

Schedule
I own a small consulting firm and work entirely at home. My hours are entirely flexible, and I enjoy pup and kitty breaks during the day. I love the exercise as much as your pup will!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsMichael can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
- It's important to know not only what your pet loves, but what they don't love. Do they like "saying hi" on the dog walk or do they prefer to be aloof. For medications, I'll ask about all the details and the timing and the dosage.
