Your dog is adorable!

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. So not having a dog around with me just almost feels not normal. I treat dogs better then I treat myself ;) I’ll make sure your dog is happy loved and exercised. Any special instructions you let me know and I’ll take care of whatever you need. ill keep you updated through out the walk/stay and send pictures to you.

Michael is a great guy, extremely responsible and so great with people and dogs. He has his own little one that is a spoiled little princess. Michael would be a invaluable asset to your company and your clients will love him!

Michael has always done a very good job watching my dog. He has done it a couple times now and he takes the responsibility of caring for her very positively. He follows instructions well, he asks the important questions and he always make sure to do the right by you, even when you’re not there. He’s completely trustworthy so your dog is going to be in fantastic hands.

I believe Michael would be an excellent pet sitter. He loves all animals, especially dogs. He has dog sat for me before and did a fabulous job and my dogs just love him to death. You won’t be disappointed!

Michael has been all about dogs since the day I met him. He has shown just as much love and attention for a dog passing by as he has with his own. As a dog owner for a good portion of his life, Mike will be someone who is aware of dogs’ temperaments and will have knowledge of how to handle common situations. Mike is reliable, responsible, and attentive. He also has many days where his availability is open, which will allow him to be flexible with someone who needs a walker/sitter

Safety, trust & environment

As someone who has security cameras in my home, when I enter a clients house I always act like I’m being recorded. I have no interest in children so I treat my dogs like they’re my kids. Anything that I’m unsure about or have question about, I’ll always make sure to reach out to you. Expect pictures and videos too!

Information Michael C. would like to know about your pet

-Any allergies -What time do they eat and what portions -Best number to reach you at -any places to avoid on walks. -how are they around other dogs

A typical day

I’ll go where ever I can go to walk your pup. If there is a certain place you would like me to go or avoid just let me know! During warmer months I do become a little picky when it comes to dog walks. I always worry about dogs in the heat and dehydration. If I see a dog panting pretty hard in the warmth on the walk, we’ll be resting in the shade or going back to the house to relax cool down.
