Highlights
Pet care experience
Live across street from City Park!
I grew up with a golden retriever named Hailey, and when I was younger I helped my mom foster care for various puppies and cats. I am available weekdays during the summer. I am a 6 ft broad shouldered guy, so I can handle any dogs you throw at me. I have always loved animals, especially dogs. I gaurentee your dog will get a ton of positive attention, and physical activity if need be! Hope to meet tons of cool dogs!

Micheal did a great job being patient and accommodating with my at times stubborn, senior foster dog! He showed my foster pup lots of care and helped me balance work and my foster pup with his help. Communication was good, for example one day I changed my dog’s food so I was worried how he would do that day, and Michael provided updates quickly. Thank you Michael!
Michael knows how to encourage Emmy-Lou to walk when she decides to “sit-back” & not engage. Thank you!
Mike was great with our reactive dog! You can tell that he really loves dogs and was not fearful of our dog at all. We did a meet and greet and then he took Minnie on a nice walk. She came back tired and happy. We will definitely be booking with him again.
Michael is excellent! Reliable & encourages Emmy-Lou on her walks! Thank you Mike! 🐶🐾

Schedule
Currently doing Rover work as a summer job while I go to school for engineering! Available most weekdays and some weekends. Have a dog of my own but my parents treat him like a grandchild so I have plenty of time for Rover.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Have plenty of experience with high anxiety/elder dogs as well as dogs with special needs such as diabetes who need injections through my sister's dog as well as some neighbors! One such dog usually hates people who aren't his owner but I wore him down and now he loves me! She is always shocked at how he reacts when he sees me, usually he barks and snarls at most people/other dogs but he's all cuddles when I come by. My sister's dog is high anxiety and hates most men but of course not me because Im special. (jk just great with dogs!)
Pets

- Any special dietary/health needs or specific anxieties is always good information to have! My dog is very noise averse for example and sometimes has to be coaxed to leave the house for a walk if there is too much construction noise.
