Toys, Treats, & Hikes, Oh My!

Pet care experience

Dogs bring joy everywhere they go and I love every single thing about them. I am a former Vet-Tech student who has been around dogs since I was little. I love being around dogs of all sizes and breeds. I am former military and currently finishing my degree, which means I have open availability (more time to spend with your fur baby!). You and your dog will love me because I am reliable, honest and I'm always in a good mood. Dogs are a part of the family, and when your pet is with me, I'll treat them just like I do my own. I love taking my own dog on hikes, play dates, and rides. We will have a blast and most importantly your fur baby will be in good hands, which will give you peace of mind while you are away. I enjoy watching dogs of all shapes and sizes. As a veteran I know that it is scary to leave your pets behind when you go out of town. I enjoy spending time with dogs and can't wait to meet yours! Let's set up a meet and greet!

Michael was awesome - replied quickly to our request and was super flexible with our schedule. A friendly guy and took to our pup right away - we felt very comfortable with our dog in his trust. Thank you Michael. It was a pleasure meeting you!

Michael was great! The pets loved him. He sent frequent picture updates and the house was spotless when we got home. Will definitely be using Michael in the future!

Michael is awesome! I have three dogs and rarely leave but when I go on vacation I can rest assured that my three babies will be taken care of. Three dogs is a lot to handle but he takes time with each and every one and makes sure they get the attention they need. If you want a tremendous sitter while you're away, Mike is the answer. I was happy to hear that he decided to take it up a notch and sit with rover, there will be many happy owners & dogs!

Mike was a lifesaver! I was deployed and needed someone to watch my German Shepard while I was away. Deployments can range anywhere from 3-12 months, which is longer than some boarding places allow. I knew Sarg was in good hands and Mike would always keep me updated on how he is doing! Anytime I go away for work I know Sarg is in good hands! I highly recommend Mike!!
