Michael was great. Hank had a little trauma when he witnessed his brother Rottie pass away and gets a little anxious on occasion when we leave but Michael took great care of him. He walked him and was super attentive to my texts and Hank seemed to really like him. I received daily texts and photos/videos which kept me from being sad and missing Hank :). I feel confident that we will use Michael again,

Mike has been our pet sitter for probably close to 3 years at this point. Mike is always very dependable (never cancels last minute), and he goes well above and beyond when he cares for the animals. Our two large dogs are reactive (rescues) but he is able to walk them both at the same time without issue. This is very much something we could never attempt on our own, even as their owners. He has also cared of our newest family member, Stella for the past year which included feeding, watering and cleaning her litter box. I highly recommend Mike to care for both dogs and cats, especially if you want someone in your house that you can completely trust to leave it in a better place you found it. We continuously forget to log our back door, the dog tear up their toys, etc. - he always makes sure to leave the place secure and picks up their messes. Hopefully you're animals aren't as challenging as ours in that respect, but if they are, Mike's a pro a handling it. He also sends pictures and is a very effective communicator.

Mike has been an exceptional dog walker for our three dogs, consistently going above and beyond to ensure their happiness and well-being. His reliability and responsibility have been invaluable to our family. Mike’s genuine love for animals is evident in the care he provides, from daily walks to extra attention when needed. He has become an integral part of our pets’ lives, and we trust him completely. We highly recommend Mike to anyone seeking a loving and dependable pet caregiver on Rover. His dedication and compassion make him stand out as a top choice for pet care.
