Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive, energetic and "present"
I follow the guidelines of the owner. I am "present" (not distracted) with the dog. I am consistent and caring. I am very aware of the dog's behavior in the range of other pets and people, and adjust our path and pace accordingly.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Currently, I walked my neighbors dog. When I enter, I am careful to close the door immediately and take time to greet the dog (Mazie, female). I am attentive to details when putting on her harness for both security and comfort. While walking, I follow the instructions of the owner relative to the proximity of other dogs since Mazie is a rescue and can become agitated by other dogs. Maize heels very well for me while we walk and I believe she appreciates that I do not listen to music or use my phone while we walk. I converse with Mazie to ensure she feels companionship as well as experiences exercise.
Ratings and reviews
Michael was great with Miles, played with him, and walked him. The pictures showed a happy smiling dog, well adjusted. Feedings were perfect. Michael was very reliable.
Michael really helped us out with our older girl. He did three walks a day so she could get her mental stimulation and energy quota. You can tell he’s a dog lover and adapts to different dog personalities. Would definitely trust Michael with our girl in the future.
Mike is kind and caring to me and Gila. He will go out of his way to walk her in emergencies that come up, and she loves him.
Michael is amazing.
Michael is attentive and generous in how he cares for Gila and our home. He communicated frequently with updates and is very considerate!
Michael takes such good care of my dog. He came for minute walks and made her day and mine.
