Michael took great care of Simba. Everything was great, from the communication to the location. I felt very comfortable knowing Simba was in good hands. I definitely recommend Michael!

Made drop off and pick so easy! Blue seemed to be really content when I picked her up. Look forward to using Michael's doggy sitting again.

Michael took good care of Coffee during daycare. He was flexible when I changed the drop-off time, and everything went smoothly. I'd be happy to book with him again.

Schedule

Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, as I have a highly flexible schedule and can prioritize walks, exercise, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day and week. This allows me to be reliable with timing, adapt to pets’ needs, and accommodate both recurring care and last-minute requests.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my home by following their routine closely so pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get proper exercise and enrichment, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home clean, handle litter or waste, monitor behavior and health, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.

Pets

A typical day

Morning: Breakfast, followed by a walk or park trip where Henri (my friendly helper dog) breaks the ice. Mid-Day: Brain puzzles, social learning, and a relaxing midday nap. Evening: A wind-down walk, dinner, and group couch cuddles. Fun Activities with Henri Social Play & Park Trips: High-energy games of tug-of-war, chase, and fetch. If the dog has reliable recall, we can safely play fetch off-leash at the park. Gentle Companionship: Henri loves to play but instinctively respects boundaries, providing quiet company if the client dog is shy or independent. Enrichment: Interactive treat hunts and exploring new, scent-filled walking trails together.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medical requirements, or specific behaviors I should account for. Because I have a small child at home, I do require that client dogs belong to breeds and have temperaments that are completely non-aggressive.
