Safety, trust & environment
Your dog sees the world through its nose and as such, we will take our time on walks to let them sniff to their heart’s content. Heavy leash pullers are welcome too. During in home care, I adhere to your dog’s daily routines and schedule of feedings, walks, outdoor breaks and medicines when required. Ample playtime and belly rubs are included at no extra charge. Extended park walks and nature hikes can be scheduled to expose your dog to stimulating new environments and experiences.

A typical day
I will keep your pup entertained and stimulated. We will explore the neighborhood at their pace. With their owners approval, we will journey to new trails and explore local parks. My well rounded assistant Shaggy will invite your pup to a spirited play session in a fenced-in yard. We will also engage in breed specific activities such as sent tracking and retrieving to help work out your working breed’s pent up energy.

Pet care experience
I offer compassion, patience and understanding. My experience with dogs began as it does for many when I was a child. My grandfather was a dog trainer. He often brought home stray and injured animals. From him, I gained a wealth of knowledge and respect for animals. Throughout my life I have always had various breeds of dog for companionship and have been fascinated with their behavior and psychology. I have been fortunate to experience first hand the stubbornness of English Bulldogs, the hyper activity of Labrador retrievers, and the gentle weight of mastiff's. Beyond the breed specific traits, I found that each and every dog stands as an individual. Just like people, they all have a unique character and needs. I sincerely hope that you may consider me to care for your companion.
Reviews
I’ve known Mike for over 15 years, and I can honestly say he is one of the most trustworthy and dog-savvy people I know. He’s fantastic with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and my dog absolutely loves him. Mike has helped me many times, especially with dogs that are strong pullers, and he handles them with total confidence and calm energy. You can tell he truly understands dogs and enjoys working with them.
Best dog walker I’ve ever used!! He managed to change my dogs terrible habit of going after other dogs on leashes. Definitely recommend using him!!
