Information Michael B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any physical aliments, behaviors, habits, allergies or special needs I need to know about the dog, to help them. If the dog has any issues with other dogs or people, it is important for me to know too.

A typical day

I have been around some real smart dogs. I like to stimulate dogs mentally and physically. We can play games, learn a new trick, take walks, get plenty of physical touch, belly rubs, positive reinforcement. I also recognize what physical level the dog is at and won't push beyond that.

I Love Big Dogs And I Cannot Lie

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm and been around all kinds of dogs my whole life. I have a real heart for all kinds of dogs. I have had dogs with medical issues and even helped rehab a few. I even worked for an organic dog food company and Petco for years. My beloved Max recently passed away. He was a 92 pound, 14 year old Weimaraner, that I rescued when he was 1. He was full of love and joy. My house feels different without him. Before I get another doggie, I thought I would board and care for other dogs. ***Currently, I recently moved and can't watch dogs at my house. I love dogs, so I am house sitting now! Yippy!!! I do Uber in the morning for 2-3 hours and in the late afternoon for 2-3 hours, other wise I can be chilling in your home., with your pets. I will be spending the night at your house. I workout at planet fitness and I will take showers there. I clean up after myself. I am working on a special diet, so I have my own food.

Michael did another amazing job with our senior pup and cat. He also cleaned up after himself so I came home and didn’t have to tend to anything. Thanks Michael!

Highly recommended. Michael took such great care of Leo and the home! He cleared all trash cans, cleaned kitchens and bathrooms, ran the vacuum, washed and put the clean sheets on, and cleaned towels/washclothes. He even left behind some great food and a gift. I will definitely be booking with him again.
