5 Years of Professional Dog Care

Pet care experience

I have been around animals my entire life. Over the last three years I worked with dogs professionally. My professional experience comes working at cage-free dog day-cares around the Santa Barbara area. From that professional experience I am accustomed to following owner instructions when caring for dogs. Additionally, I have a strong background in identifying dog behaviors, which has aided me in tailoring a well round experience for any dog under my care. I have cared for friendly dogs, energetic dogs, relaxed dogs, aggressive dogs, shy dogs, arthritic dogs, and almost every dog in between. Dogs are like our children, and they will be cared for to the best of my ability. **I am able to care for dogs who do have aggression issues, however this is a process and multiple meet and greets will be needed until the dog is comfortable**

Michael made using rover easy. Im more than satisfied with the experience and had peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of. He responded quickly and was punctual on his arrival. I will definitely be requesting more walks for my dog! Thanks Michael.

Information Michael J. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know some basic information about your dog so I can give them the best experience possible. I am open to every dog breed.

A typical day

The walks will vary from dog to dog. From my experience most dogs do best when staying within environments they are comfortable with. However, if your dog likes to explore, then explore we shall.
