Lots of availability, avid runner!

Pet care experience

My name is Mike and I am originally from Illinois but now in CO! I grew up with dogs and have cared for the pups of others since high school, through Rover or just for friends. I currently have a wide availability during the week, with more limited weekends but open to working with your schedule! . I'm an avid runner, so if you have a dog that needs to get its legs stretched often I'd love to help. Multiple dogs is not an issue! I don't have any major preference and would be happy with any size, breed, and temperament for dogs.

Mike takes the best care of my pup. She’s high energy and has some behavioral quirks but he has patiently worked with her on their walks and I’ve seen a notable improvement. Always reliable and easy to communicate with!

Michael is a responsible, reliable and attentive dog caregiver. He has watched our dog Bailey multiple times and we continued to call upon him because he did such a great job, and we could see how much Bailey liked him. Michael has a naturally good rapport with animals and is very trustworthy.

I wholeheartedly recommend Michael as a dog sitter! We have had quite a few different dog sitters over the years, and Michael was our favorite by far. He watched our gentle giant senior dog, Max, numerous times when we went out of town. We did not feel comfortable leaving Max at a kennel because of the care he needed, but Michael took amazing care of Max. He went above and beyond what we asked him to do, spending extra time with Max and helping him with the medical needs he had. Max was always as excited as a puppy when Michael came over to the house to get the instructions before we left on vacations, so we knew Max loved spending time with Michael as much as Michael loved taking care of him! We would definitely still be using Michael if he hadn't moved for college-highly highly recommend!

Michael is extremely awesome with dogs! We choose carefully who we let watch our 110lb Lab/Bernese Mountain Dog mix and Michael was great! Took him on walks, runs, and outdoor play. Michael is very responsible, energetic, caring, knowledgeable, and definitely the guy you want to watch your dog. Highly recommend!

General mood of the dog, definite dos and don'ts (like aggression while eating for example), favorite toys, favorite playtime activity, any ailments or spots to watch.

I'll take the dogs on walks wherever you'd choose, either near home on a familiar route or a park nearby. Open to a hike as well!
