Home full time, full availability

Pet care experience

Hi! I just graduated college and am home full time searching for a job. Since I have plenty of free time on my hands, I figured I might as well make some extra money and share my love of dogs! I'm willing to stop by and walk/run with your dog (I exercise frequently so a companion would be nice) or keep your dog overnight. When I was young we had a chocolate lab then got a cat who we recently had to put down. My parents decided with our hectic lifestyle growing up getting another dog would be a hassle, but I'm close with my grandparents who have had numerous rescue dogs throughout the years that I've always loved to walk and play with. I have full availability, especially on weekdays.

Hi Rover! My name is Catherine, and I am a dear friend of Michael's. He is honestly one of the people my dog, Sara, and I are closest to. I am the proud owner of a 35-pound rescued pitbull mix. She is a sweetheart, but occasionally has a hard time opening up to people. She first met Michael on Cinco de Mayo and (not to be hyperbolic) it was love at first sight. I thought that she would be reluctant, but she went right up to him and nudged his hand for attention. He is very gentle with her; I'd feel comfortable with him taking her on a walk, for the weekend, and being responsible for her care and well-being. She walks on a harness, and he has helped get her in and out of it before. He loves my dog so much and is exceptionally compassionate. Any dog would be lucky to have Michael as their friend/walker.

Michael is nothing if not caring and responsible, and this extends even further to the animals he cares for! I have trusted Michael with my animals several times, and each time they love him more -- and so do I! Hire him. He'll help you immensely!

Michael is such a sweetheart!! I've known Michael for a few years now and he is so kind and sweet to my two dogs, Nugget (a Pomeranian) and Lulu (a Wheaten Terrier). I always gives them lots of love and treats them well. My dogs always get so excited when Michael comes over, you can tell that they really appreciate the love and care that he gives them. He is always enthusiastic and goes the extra mile when it comes for caring for dogs. They make him smile and they smile right back!
