Information Michael E. would like to know about your pet

During our walks I would like to know if your pet is reactive to other dogs, cats or squirrels. So I can better prepare myself and avoid them.

A typical day

I enjoy taking your pet on a walk that will stimulate them physically and mentally. Keeping them happy and motivated shows that I had a successful walk.

Pet care experience

The best thing coming home to are my 3 babies. Dany(Yorkie), beezley(lab) and Mika(mix gs/husky). I love how they are all filled with excitement, wagging their tails as I was only gone for a minute. When I say the words “let’s go for a walk” that’s when they know the fun begins.

Highly recommend Michael! We have a big dog that can be a handful on walks, and Michael did a great job with him! We set up recurring walks during the week, and our dog loved his walks with Michael.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
