Relocating to a new town presents unique challenges, particularly for individuals who work from home. The absence of familiar social networks can lead to feelings of isolation. However, pet ownership can serve as a significant source of companionship, enhancing emotional well-being and providing opportunities for social interaction within the community. Moreover, the presence of pets in a home office environment can increase productivity and reduce stress levels. Engaging with animals during work breaks fosters mental clarity and rejuvenation. Thus, embracing both remote work and pet companionship can facilitate a smoother transition into a new locale while promoting overall life satisfaction.

Safety, trust & environment

The ownership of a large land area provides ample space for personal activities and the well-being of pets. Specifically, two dogs can either share a sleeping arrangement with their owner or utilize a crate for rest. This flexibility enhances both companionship and security in the human-animal relationship. Sleeping alongside dogs emotional bonds and can contribute to reduced anxiety levels for both parties. Conversely, using a crate offers dogs a designated safe space, promoting independence and comfort when needed. Thus, the choice between these arrangements reflects individual preferences while ensuring the welfare of the animals involved.

Information Michael H. would like to know about your pet

Understanding a pet's specific needs and behaviors is crucial for prospective for me. Please let me know of special requirements for me to take care of your animal.

A typical day

Playing with animals fosters a unique bond between humans and non-human companions, enhancing emotional well-being. Engaging in interactive play stimulates cognitive development in both species, promoting social skills and empathy. Moreover, such activities contribute to physical health by encouraging exercise and reducing stress, ultimately enriching the human-animal relationship.

Michael kept our dog safe and well cared for while we were on vacation in Shasta. Our dog got plenty of love, attention and exercise. He was great communicating how the dog was doing. Would definitely use his services again

Very communicative and obviously cares a lot for dogs. Pepper stayed for 7 hours and had a blast at the lake (per pictures). Will definitively us him for care again when traveling through the area and needing daycare.

Our dogs love Mikey! He emanates warmth and love, is thorough with communication, and keeps our dogs happy and healthy! In addition, Mikey always feeds, medicates, and cares for our dogs to our exact instructions.( one of our dogs is a blind, special needs, dog who LOVES Mikey the most…. And most importantly we feel his extra care and needs are met always.) Mikey sends us consistent photo updates, so we are always at ease knowing our dogs are safe and loved while we are away. I recommend Mikey without pause.
