*The Dogfather* Whispering to All

Pet care experience

I have had dogs in my life since childhood. I was a kennel technician/manager for a Dog and Cat Boarding Resort for many years. I am versed in the care, feeding and medication (including injections) of dogs & cats. I am also knowledgeable in behavior and discernment of many breeds. I am capable of supervising multiple dogs and regularly had 10-15 dogs in my care daily at work. I also love spending lots of quality one-on-one time. I consider myself to be a very social gentleman, not only with people but with dogs. I have an immense passion for dogs no matter the size or shape or breed. I have lived with and cared for a vast variety of dogs since my childhood days. I currently have two small dogs, a Pomeranian mix & a Yorkie/Poodle mix. I am a devout Christian,serving as a soldier in the Salvation Army where I continue to serve my Lord & Savior and my community. I have studied, worked with and trained many breeds of dog over the last 40 years with a focus on behavior modification. Large or small, old or new- I love them all! I thank you for your consideration and I would love to meet you and your furry family member(s)!

Information Michael D. would like to know about your pet

All breeds welcome! (1-40lbs) Ijust ask that they are PEOPLE FRIENDLY and hopefully dog friendly but that is not a requirement.

A typical day

I truly enjoy one-on-one time with dogs. Also many different forms of play; whether it be walking, belly rubs, ball throwing or other toys available. I love spending time with my dogs outside on nice days with walks through the neighborhood. I also understand the needs of some dogs to just relax and spend some quiet time. My routine is to try my best to accommodate you and your pets needs.

My daily routine is staying home and caring for your pet. I may do walks (away from home) during the week but I watch any pups on multiple cams while away. Other than that, I am home caring for your loved ones. Which involves daily play/relax time and walks. Also very respectful of the dogs who just want to chill.
