Safety, trust & environment

I cannot host any pets at my house as my dog doesn’t get along with other animals, but I am happy to housesit for as long as you need. I love just chilling with the fuzzy ones.

Information Michael K. would like to know about your pet

Medical needs, emotional issues, games and toys they like, how they like or don’t like to be pet, how much attention or space they need, how comfortable they are around people or other animals, how much exercise they need and how much exercise is too much.

A typical day

I know a really great dog park/hiking trail that is great for dogs. I have a ball chucker and a huge supply of tennis balls.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs and cats of all sizes for over fifteen years now. I have a Dr Doolittle vibe with them. Caring for pets comes second nature to me.

Michael has been my dog, Corrie's, faithful companion in helping to walk and help train her. Michael is prompt and reliable.

Michael was responsive and communicative! He sent great photos and a sweet video. We felt very confident that Chowder was in good hands.

Michael was fantastic! Another walker canceled on me with little notice and Michael was able to accommodate me at the last minute, coming to meet my dog the day after I reached out to him. He was great with my dog and included important details in his daily reports.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
