All-Around Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets of all kinds since I was a teenager. We’ve had; dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and other small animals. I’ve always been fascinated by nature and animals and continue to feel the same way. I recently retired from a 27+ year career in law enforcement and am looking forward to the next chapter. What better way to spend it than making some new furry friends!

So comfortable leaving our home and our pets in Mike’s very capable hands. Communicative, friendly, and respectful of the way you want your animals taken care of. Stayed 4 nights and our home is still as spotless as we left it. Incredible sitter all around!

I have known Michael for many years. We have two large dogs now and Michael has cared for them many times. Before we had these two dogs we had a dog and a cat. Both were elderly and needed extra care and attention and he treated them like they were his family. I would not hesitate for one moment to recommend Michael to care for your fur babies. You will be so happy that you do!

We currently have two dogs. Pebbles is our long hair chihuahua and Bamm-Bamm is our chihuahua mix. They are definitely treated as family members and are always on my lap or my wife’s lap. We always make sure to have a variety of toys and chews available to them to keep them engaged and entertained. I am very particular on how my dogs are cared for so I want to make sure your pets are cared for exactly as you would if you were home. I will ensure to provide them with all the love and attention they deserve and more!

Information Michael C. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any special needs, just let me know ahead of time so I can be sure to accommodate. I know every pet is different and requires specific attention!

A typical day

I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Learning their likes and dislikes I’ll be sure they have plenty of play time and attention. Whether that’s fetch, going for walks or just hanging out together, I promise we’ll have a great time.
