Information Michael M. would like to know about your pet

In my experience, every pet is unique in their own special way and has slightly different needs. Feel free to be as specific as possible with your care instructions so I know how best to take care of them!

A typical day

My #1 priority is to make sure that your pet feels safe, secure, and loved while you’re away. Just let me know their favorite toys, games, exercises, etc. and I’ll be happy to keep them busy!

Cat Dad & lifelong animal lover

Pet care experience

I’ve owned and taken care of all sorts of animals for my entire life! I have many years of experience with cats and dogs of all age groups I’ve raised multiple puppies from their youth, including potty training and crate training, and can follow any commands you’re working on. I’ve also rescued and fostered several cats, including a whole litter of voids! For those who need special care, I’ve administered many types of medications including oral, topical, and injected prescriptions - for both my own pets and those I care for Having 3 cats and a dog of my own, I know just how important your 4-legged babies are. I will treat your pet like my own and send plenty of photos and updates! Feel free to inquire about any additional care items such as watering plants, taking out trash, checking the mail, etc. - I’m here to help!

Michael was amazing! Punctual, gave Oliver his much needed cuddles and kept him company while I was away.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
