Information Michael B. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences but I’d like to know all specific details for feeding schedule, potty schedule, letting out/walk routine, and anything else I’d need to know that wouldn’t throw off the dog’s normal routine.

A typical day

Aside from hanging out, we can walk around the neighborhood, go to nearby park/dog park or an adventure through the forest trails! Some activities we’d get into would be fetch, a nice jog/run, or practice commands!

Pet care experience

Ready and available to keep your pet(s) happy and healthy! I enjoy going on walks and working with commands for a nice belly rub or tasty treat when successful! I live with a dog and a cat who I absolutely love, a tortoise and pitty. From my own personal experience, I’ve learned that sometimes I can’t always be there for my pets because of school, work, vacation, or anything that prevents me. Having the option for someone to come and care for my pets is a huge advantage in today’s fast paced world. Our pets love company and need to be cared for especially when we aren’t available. I will show your pets the same love and care as I do my own! -Animal CPR Certified-

Absolutely amazing. Very attentive and gentle. One of my kitties is shy and he felt comfortable with him so it was a huge sigh of relief.

Michael is exceptionally conscientious and kept my pups safe and warm while I was away. He stayed in very good contact with me so I could rest assured that all was fine on the home front. Highly recommended!

Absolutely awesome! Great about communication, very friendly and did everything I asked! Highly recommend. Even worked on training a trick I couldn't get down! I will definitely choose Micheal again when I need some check-ins.

Mike was great! We booked a couple meet and greets for our Dogs and Mike - and that made the stay go very smooth! Mike provides great communication, plenty of pics and updates. Will definitely use Mike again!
