Safety, trust & environment
I'm not able to board dogs in my home, unfortunately, but will follow any guidelines you give me for care during visiting sittings. I'm very cautious during walks and will shower your pets with attention until they get bored of it at home!
Information Michael C. would like to know about your pet
As noted in my profile, I love working with all animals. I'm experienced with dogs, cats, and other pets, of varying sizes and temperaments. I do appreciate knowing about their habits, schedules, and any behavioral concerns or triggers ahead of time, so that I can do the best job possible. We can talk through all of that if you think I could be a good fit.
A typical day
I'll follow your guidance when it comes to your pet's daily routine! I find that it's generally best to maintain a sense of normalcy for them when their family is away, in case they have separation anxiety or need a little time to adapt to a new person in their space.

Experienced Professional Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
My name is Mike and I would love to have the opportunity to care of you pet! I’m a highly experienced provider of independent professional pet care services here in NYC. I'm available on a full-time basis for dog walks, pet visits, and overnight sittings. It's sad for me that I'm not able to have pets in my current residence, so I'll be eager to devote my full attention to caring for yours! I enjoy working with animals of any size or temperament, and am very accustomed to caring for city pets with aggression or reactivity issues. I have a soft spot for shy, anxious pets and love trying to win them over. I have extensive experience providing dogs with exercise and training reinforcement on long walks in crowded city neighborhoods. I make sure to prioritize their safety while still making it fun for them. I pride myself on being highly communicative and transparent with owners during sittings and after walks. I'll make sure to report back about any changes in your pet's behavior that I notice, and will ask for your advice if there's something I think I can do better based on their reactions. Please reach out any time if you think I could be a good fit!

Michael is the best and so patient with my senior bully. I can go away with peace of mind
Michael has stayed over to watch my pit bull while I was away a few times and is very patient with her, understanding of my dog’s age and vision issues and kind even when she is a bully. I definitely trust and recommend him
Mike’s stay with my pups, Amil and Café, was absolutely extraordinary! Truly incredible. It was so relaxing to be away knowing they were in the best hands. This was my first time ever hiring a dog sitter, and the experience couldn’t have been better. Mike kept amazing communication throughout the entire trip, sending photos and updates of everything going on, it really gave me so much peace of mind. Mike is the best! I’m already looking forward to my next trip so my dogs can have another amazing vacation with him!! 😄
Michael is great with my senior pitbull!
