Highlights
Pet care experience
Veterinary and Boarding experience
I have loved animals my whole life. This has led me to pursue a career in which I have been lucky enough to work for multiple veterinary clinics, a boarding facility, a doggie daycare, as well as several years as a private pet sitter.
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I know that each animal has his or her own personality. I am comfortable in adopting to whatever care standards and environment your fur baby is used to. I like to keep as little disruption to their daily routine as possible so they can be comfortable at home while your away.
Ratings and reviews
Michael was excellent. He watched two large labs and they were very much at ease with Michael. Two days before my trip one of my dogs got a large heat rash. I took her to the vet but she received 3 meds and a cone. Michael handled it like a pro. He kept me informed on how the pups were doing and left the house clean. I highly recommend Michael for watching your pets.
I don't really want to give Michael a great review because I want to keep him all for myself! He did an amazing job! Paco, my small chihuahua, is leery of men and Michael completely won him over! He was at my home the entire time and my house was spotless when I returned.
We are very grateful for Michael’s terrific care of our pups. Especially our special needs dog. Michael was able to provide insulin injections and administered other medications as well. His communication is excellent. We will continue to book with Michael for future dog sitting needs.
Michael watched our young puppy in our home for a few days and was wonderful! He was very communicative, extremely flexible, and was responsive to our active pup’s needs. She’s easily excitable (especially with new people and playtime) and he clearly had previous puppy experience and knew exactly what to do. I would book Michael again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and experienced pet sitter.
Michael looked after my four small dogs recently. I can’t recommend him more highly. Michael is a great communicator, intuitive with my dogs and responded to each of their needs accordingly. Michael notified me immediately of any potential issues. This is reassuring as a dog owner of two special needs pups (a diabetic, insulin dependent dog and one with separation anxiety and collapsed trachea.) Caring person, who is responsible and proactive. Highly recommended.
Very great communicator and very knowledgeable with my pet who needs special care after surgery. I feel very safe and comfortable with Michael and highly recommend him. Will be using again!
