Professional 🐶🐾🐈 dog & cat owner

Pet care experience

I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life. Currently raising a new puppy, Mayzie, alongside our two cats, Oreo & Pebbles. We’ve benefited from others taking care of our pets and we want to pay it forward. I’m reliable, professional, communicative, work from home full time, attentive to pet needs, can pick up & drop off, have a crate for use, can separate or let pets play, Vet is 5 minutes way, & have a big fenced backyard. I will give you piece of mind your pet is in a loving home while you’re away.

My cat has become nicer since Michael started sitting. Moz no longer scratches my shoes and never whines, as he used to.

Michael was so attentive to our pups and followed all our directions for their needs. Looking forward to Michael watching our dogs again!

Michael has watched our pup, Stella, a number of times now. She is always well-taken-care of with Michael. He takes her on multiple walks per day and makes sure she gets plenty of outside time. She and his pup get along well, so it is nice for her to have a dog playmate too. Michael sends photos and updates throughout the stay, which is great for when we are missing her. We would recommend Michael to anyone needing someone to care for their pet.

Michael did a fantastic job - he had no trouble with our complicated smart home instructions and had no issues giving our cat his medication. Will request him every time we go out of town.

Information Michael B. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know all the specifics you want to share. Dietary guidelines, routines, and restrictions are most important. Sleep habits and creature comforts are key to a good overnight stay.

A typical day

I’m highly adaptable to what your pup will need. My favorite activities include playing tennis ball fetch in the backyard or beach! I usually go on multiple and sometimes long walk. I love our local beaches and parks along the Bay!
