Happy to help...four paws at a time

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm a 32 year old commercial photographer based out of Winston-Salem, NC, and I'm looking to fill some free time! I've been around pets my whole life. Living in a rural area, I had several cats growing up and a border collie, Sox, who stayed with me for 17 years! With my current job, I do travel quite often and without a lot of notice so I didn't feel it would be responsible to own a pet. That being said, there's also a lot of downtime, so I'd like to fill that time being both productive and active! Because my schedule is so flexible here are some guarantees I can make: - I have no problem traveling to look after your pets! - I'm an active person so your doggo (if able and willing, of course!) will enjoy walking with me consistently (every couple hours) and at length. No walking to the end of the driveway and turning around here! - I will be more than happy to send updates and photos of my time with your pets. You can rest assured they are getting the attention they deserve! Some other things about me: - I do live in an apartment, however, there is a fenced in play area for dogs behind the complex to get some exercise. -I always carry a water bowl and water on me so your dog will always be hydrated and safe! - I am a clean person, and I will be respectful of your home, pet, and belongings! - I understand that your pets are part of your family. I will treat them with love and patience! If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out!

I have used Michael on several occasions to watch my dog and he has done a great job every time. He plays and showers my dog with lots of attention. He provides updates during the day so that I have peace of mind while I am away. I am very satisfied and will continue using Michael in the future.

Michael has taken care of my two pet dogs multiple times, and he is very patient and kind towards them. He loves being outside and was great with taking them out on multiple walks. He is very communicative with me and keeps me updated on how my dog are doing throughout the day and evening. I recommend Michael to anybody who needs a caring pet sitter!

I do prefer medium to small dogs in my apartment. I can safely house up to a 50 lb dog. I don't have any breed preferences, however, I live in a somewhat busy area. So no dogs with aggression/socialization issues.

A typical day

I live right near the greenway and Old Salem! If staying with me, your dog will enjoy a nice walk through that area! My apartment complex also has a fenced in play area! We can play fetch and other activities there! While in my apartment (I will always be present), I will be sure to give your dog lots of attention!
