Pet care experience

Caring and Attentive Pet Caretaker

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats growing up, and we had 2 dogs and 2 cats for many years until I went to law school out of state. I raised my 3.5 year old shih tzu since she was 10 weeks old and she’s the happiest, cuddliest and energetic dog ever! My friends have taken care of her and I’ve reciprocated by taking care of their pets when out of town, and I’d love to help the Rover community as well!

Michael has probably been the first person that's given me a lot of confidence & comfort with my senior dog. He is understanding and patience and really listen to my instructions which I appreciate so much. I mean TJ is my baby.

Michael was punctual and even walked my dog for an extra 5 minutes. My dog immediately warmed up to Michael, which is not usual for her. She got her exercise in and enjoyed the fun walk.

It was our first time using Rover and Michael provided over the top experience. We’ve heard some horror stories with Rover so we were very skeptical. But Michael proved us wrong! From our initial conversation, he was able to assure us and really made us feel comfortable leaving our pup and home with him. My husband has trust issues with strangers coming to our home but he says Michael Will definitely be the one to trust for all our future travels. Thank you!!

Schedule

I work from home as a tech lawyer and have a flexible schedule so I often go on 30-40 minute walks with my dog Miso twice a day. Whether you have an active dog or one that just loves company and care, I’ll be happy to work with your schedule and your pet(s)’ needs!
