Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted care for dogs & cats
My girlfriend and I have been around dogs and cats our entire lives and truly love caring for animals. We understand that pets are family, and we will treat yours with the same love, attention, and respect we give our own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or companionship, we’re excited to provide a safe, caring, and reliable experience while you’re away.

Ratings and reviews
Second time booking with Michael and Ava and they are so good with my two dogs. Very thankful for the kindness and attention they give to my pups while I’m away, and the updates they send me. Will consistently use them for future trips!
Michael and Ava were fantastic dog sitters. They were very accommodating, friendly, and had a great space for my two dogs. They spent a lot of time with them and took them for many walks and sent a lot of very heartwarming photos. I knew my dogs were in great caring hands. Will absolutely use again in the future.
Michael loves dogs! He is kind, calm - yet can handle the chaos of a few dogs at one time. Michael is very responsible and I would have him watch our dogs anytime!
Michael and Ava have watched my dog a handful of times, and I can always trust them. They go above and beyond to take her for daily walks, bring her to the dog park, and give her plenty of attention. I love getting all the photo updates as well! My dog can be very high energy so it's not easy to find someone so great to watch her!

Schedule
I work full-time in a hybrid role, which gives me the flexibility to work from home whenever needed and provide plenty of attention throughout the day. My girlfriend works part-time at a local coffee shop and is home most weekdays. Together, we have a flexible schedule that allows us to give pets the care, companionship, exercise, and attention they deserve while you’re away.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We live in a pet-friendly apartment community with three designated dog relief areas just steps from our door, making bathroom breaks easy and frequent. We also have access to a fenced dog park right outside our apartment, which we love to use for social and active dogs who enjoy being around others. For pets who prefer a quieter environment, we’re happy to adjust activities to their comfort level. My girlfriend and I are attentive, responsible, and committed to following your pet’s routine and any special instructions you provide. We take long walks every evening and often walk to Washington Park, giving dogs plenty of exercise, enrichment, and time outdoors. We understand that trust is earned, and we’ll treat your pets with the same care, attention, and love we would give our own.
A typical day
My girlfriend and I love to be active, so if a hike or long walk is in the cards for our visit, we’d love to make it happen! We also love dog parks and socializing, so we frequent many dog friendly patios.
