Mike is an amazing pet sitter. He treats our two pit bull mixes like they are his family which allows me to go on vacation with ease. It is beyond comforting to know they are so loved. I would recommend him to anyone.

Mike has watched my dogs for a number of year now. Always follows feeding instructions, on time and even has stayed at our home without issues. My dogs love him and trust him to be there for them. They are 2 friendly pits and he has no concerns working with them. He walks them and they are not always easy walkers. I am thankful and my dogs are thankful he is there for them.
