Dog Walking • Aug 27, 2026

Michael did a fantastic job! I've got a big German shepherd and had to leave him alone with my wife who struggles to walk him right now. Michael was super flexible in his schedule and always came through. My wife would call me while I was away and tell me how happy our pup was to go on his walks and how energetic he became whenever Michael stopped by! Excellent service and will definitely use again

Michael was a great host for my Lucy for three nights. He always replied to messages and gave us some updates along the way. I thank Michael for giving Lucy a safe space to stay while we were away.

Michael has a four year old golden retriever that he cares for very well and this is seen by the way that Marley listens to and loves him back. She is a very well-behaved dog that loves other people and is very excited for any kind of attention. Her behavior and temperament is a testament to Michael’s ability to care for and love his best friend, Marley. He will make a wonderful caregiver to any beloved pet.
