Pet care experience

Medical student who personally has two guinea pigs, two cats, grew up with dogs, and has previously owned many fish. I treat patients in the hospital and you can trust me to be professional and on top of your pet's care. Not many people have experience caring for rodents and fish. I also have personal experience owning two cats and growing up with 100+ pound dogs.

Michael is an A+ pet and house sitter! I felt completely at ease welcoming him into my home and he left it in perfect condition. I can tell the pets had a blast during his stay and he had great attention to detail when it came to instructions. Would definitely recommend him and will be booking him again!

Michael is amazing!!!! Super reliable and friendly. Great with my special dog possum. Very communicative and truly left the house better than he found it.

Michael was fantastic with our pups! We really appreciate how he made them feel super secure while we were out of town. Also loved that he sent pics every day and updated us on how they were doing. Don't hesitate to book with Michael!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
