Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal loving family
I have lived and taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. My boys (13 and 15) have always had pets in the house and have a deep love and appreciation for our four legged family members. We recently adopted a 4 year old Husky Echo, our first dog in the home after our black lab Shadow passed away at 18 years old. I will only be taking one in home pet at a time to make sure they get all the love and attention they need and deserve. Please reach out if you would like to schedule a visit or have any questions. I promise your little friend will be happy and well cared for. I can also give baths and take to dog parks if you desire.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Michael is great!. He kept me updated every day on the status of my 2 cats. I would Highly recommend him for pet care services
Michael is a rockstar of doggie care. He has been with my Husky / Malamute Veda on multiple occasions now, and every time he has been a pleasure to work with. I always know Veda is in good hands. I'll continue to book time with Michael, and would gladly recommend him to others.
I highly recommend Michael! I’ve already boarded my dog at his place twice, and I can tell my dog has been well loved and cared for. Michael be my go-to for sure. He is also super responsive and understanding, especially when I had to request boarding at last minute.
Michael and his boys did a wonderful job taking care of our cats for us. He went above and beyond in looking after everything while we were gone. Trustworthy, dependable, punctual, and professional!
Michael did a great job watching both of my dogs when I needed a sitter last minute. He was responsive, dependable, and easy to coordinate with. I appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing my boys were in good hands. 🐾
Michael was a fantastic drop in caregiver for our dog and cat while we spent the night away from home. 10/10 would recommend!

Schedule
I live and work in Point Loma near liberty station with a flexible schedule. I can do morning, afternoon, and evening walks for dogs or if boarding can be home on and off throughout the day weekdays. I can take them to dog parks (OB dog beach and Fiesta Island dog park preferably) on evenings and weekends if desired.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a large apartment near liberty station with a large outdoor area (not fenced) and a dog washing station in the apartment building. We adopted out boy Echo (Husky mix/rescue) in 2026 so unfortunately I am less able to board than before. We will Need to make sure our furry friends get along well. My boys have been around pets their whole lives and are. Wry gentle and playful with them. Basically a home away from home for your pet.

A typical day
We will explore and walk the large area around my apartment as well as the large grassy areas of liberty station. My kids will give them all the love and attention they desire and if desired I will take them to the dog beach in OB or the large park on Fiesta Island. Not always fun, but I can give them baths as well.
