Can't believe I get paid for this!

Pet care experience

I am an absolute dog lover — I connect deeply with animals, and really value the time I get to spend dog sitting. I love all animals, especially dogs. I have a passion for wildlife conservation, and I find building relationships with dogs to be very rewarding. I have experience working with and caring for Poodle mixes, an Irish Wolfhound, Labradors, Malamutes, and Cocker Spaniels. My background also includes professionally caring for an Irish Wolfhound — this involved feeding, playing, and walking him while his parents were out of town. Dogs have been a part of family for my entire life. I truly consider them to be a part of the family, and treat each with the highest dignity and respect. I consider myself a natural in connecting with dogs, and I notice that they're often drawn to me because they can sense that I have a deep love and appreciation for all animals. It won’t be hard to see just how much I love dogs! I’ll provide pictures and text updates for my clients, so that they never have to wonder how their dogs are doing. I respond promptly to any inquiries or requests. I enjoy making music and spending time with my own dogs, which are both Poodle mixes. They don’t live with me, so your dogs will be my sole focus when they stay with me.

Michael is amazing!! He helped us out HUGE in a pretty unique situation. We booked Michael to help out with our dog, Koda, while we were in San Francisco for our wedding weekend. Michael not only took on the task and formulated his weekend around our schedule, he also picked up, dropped off, and was SUPER on time to where Koda needed to be. Michael was responsive, responsible, and really played a giant role in making sure that our wedding weekend went off perfectly. Not once did we have to worry about the logistic of where Koda was, if he was taken care of, or who he was with. Michael we can't thank you enough and you are for sure our go-to guy in the Bay Area!

Franklin was well taken care of, and I'd definitely take him to stay with Michael again.

From chihuahuas to giant poodles, dogs seem to gravitate to Michael; they love him! Maybe they can sense his gentle nature and his love of animals. He's responsible, conscientious, and patient, and can be counted on as a caregiver to any pet. Not to mention he knows SF geography really well which comes in handy when finding the best dog friendly parks and streets.

A typical day

With your permission, I’d love to take your dog to Alamo Square, where he could run and roll in the soft grass. I’ll be home with him during the day, where we’ll hang out and play with his favorite toys, or he could just relax on a doggy bed when he’s tired. Either way, your dog will receive lots of love! I live in the Alamo Square neighborhood of San Francisco. Dogs and people alike love this neighborhood because of the famous Alamo Square park, with its rolling green hills and fresh air — an ideal place for a pup to stretch his legs. My house is a spacious flat with a fenced-in yard, so dogs will be both safe and comfortable here.
