Pet care experience
I CAN HANDLE MORE THAN DOGS AND CAT
I've raised and taken care of dogs and cats since I was atleast 10yrs old. But in my adult lifetime I've raised pigs, sheep, chickens, rabbits and horses. For a number of years I raised and breed English Pointers and also trained them for upland game bird hunting. With my Extended Life Experience, I am able to care for just about any animal with care and affection while keeping them safe and secure. I have an affinity for ALL animals. All that they desire from us is our Love and Attention and to be treated with Care and Affection. That is exactly what your furry little critter will learn to expect from me. And Nothing Less

Michael was fantastic!!! We have a high energy dog and some sitters find him intimidating but Michael learned his behavior immediately. Our pup was thrilled to spend a couple of weeks at his house with his dog, Piper. We will use him again!
Our dog had the best time. We loved all of the pictures and Enzo can’t wait to go back!
Michael is outstanding. He loves animals and is very nurturing. Michael relates well to animals and makes them feel safe and secure. Our Lab is 85 pounds of pure energy and Michael gave him a welcoming environment. walks, ball play and attention. Our dog came home happy!
Kylo had a great time! He made some new friends and felt perfectly at home. All tuckered put after a fun day!
Absolutely incredible dog sitter! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Sean! He took care of our dogs like they were his own — walking them daily, playing with them nonstop, and giving them all the love and snuggles they could possibly want. He went above and beyond, sending tons of adorable photos and thoughtful updates so we always knew they were happy and in great hands. It was clear from the start that he genuinely loves animals and takes pride in making them feel safe and loved. Strongly recommend for any of your pet sitting or boarding needs. He is my go-to and will use again in the future. 🐾♥️

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
While looking out for your fur ball, whether it be in your home, the backyard,on long walks, in the park, or in my home, my training with the Dept. of Corrections had ingrained into me to be very aware of my surroundings. I take notice of things others my not see. Your little buddies safety and well-being is as important to me as it is to you.

A typical day
Depending on your dog, I can take them on a long walk around the neighborhood, park or dog park, going on a trip for a walk on the beach is never out of the question either. We can also play some games of fetch with a ball or favorite toy, and even play some tug of war if your dog prefers. But, if your dog just needs someone to come and hang out to give them company or go on a car ride we can do that as well.
