Dog Lover without a Dog

Pet care experience

Howdy, I'm Michael. My family always had dogs in the house growing up (and a stray cat or two), big and small, and I have owned a chocolate lab of my own in the past. If I could have a dog right now, I absolutely would (my boyfriend is very allergic). So, I'm doing the next best thing, which is providing lots of love and company for others' dogs. I live in Uptown, work for a law firm in the Loop, and am willing to travel anywhere in between the Loop and the north side. I'm pretty flexible on the weekday nights and weekends, and am happy travel a little further for overnight stays. If you have any questions or want to know a little more about me, feel free to ask!

Hey Rover! When Michael told me he wanted to become a dog walker I thought to myself, PERFECT! He has walked and puppy-sat for my pooch many of times. He's always kept his appointments, arrives on time or a few minutes early which is great. From the moment my dog met Michael I could instantly see that he truly is a dog lover, they got along great! I think Michael would be a great fit at Rover he's trustworthy, punctual, and loves dogs what else could a dog owner want?! ;) Keelan

Michael is a Physicians Assistant student, army (medic) veteran, and an avid dog lover. Growing up michael's family had a lab/pit mix and two Pekingese. He's also a tremendously loving boyfriend, who puts up with my dog allergy. Hiring Michael to care for your pet would mean a lot to both of us!

Information Michael C. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences, per se. I haven't met many dogs that I couldn't get along with. But, I will say that I have a special place in my heart for bigger dogs (especially labs!).

A typical day

If you have a bigger dog that likes running, I am totally down with that. Otherwise, I'm happy to explore Chicago with dogs of all shapes and sizes, playing fetch, or hanging out at the dog beach.
