Dog Loving Young Couple!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs all of my life and I've been working in the pet industry for the last 5 years. In that time, I’ve learned a great deal about pups, including information about behavior, nutrition, and general health. I am very patient with pups and have developed a keen sense for how dogs attempt to communicate with us. I’ve met lots of breeds and always look forward to meeting new pups, since every stay is a new learning opportunity. But above all, I love getting to know and building connections with all dogs. Caring for pets is such a big priority for me! I understand the every dog is an individual and each have their specific needs and wants. I make it my goal to find out how every dog wants to be loved and treat them that way. I always want to learn as much as I can about a pup before the stay begins so that I can tailor their experience just for them. I’m happy to meet dogs at their level, no matter what it is! I would be home for the majority of the stay, meaning that I’ll be able to spend tons of quality time with your pup, allowing me to be as attentive to their needs as possible. I live with my girlfriend Molly who loves dogs just as much as I do. She’s been working with animals for 3 years and has built amazing relationships with dogs and their owners. I live in dog friendly condo complex with very friendly and quiet dogs. We love to socialize with them, and together we’ll have plenty of opportunities to meet new friends! We have a fenced yard at the end of our complex that is perfect for running around in and burning some energy off.

After losing my regular sitter due to a move, I needed someone to watch my pup on short notice. Michael responded very quickly and after reading that they had some experience with pets, I took a chance and I'm so happy with the service. He came out to meet my dog first and my pup just followed him. I got a picture and an update and he accommodated my schedule. I couldn't be happier. Finding someone you can trust with you pet is so important.

Michael is great with pets especially with doggies, he loves doggies & loves interacting with them & spending time with them. He is also very responsible so I'm sure he will be great with your pets, he's someone you could trust to take care of your furry kids ????

Michael is a true animal lover. He gives dogs more love than pet parents could ever ask for! He is reliable and caring and will treat your dog like a princess (or prince). Michael has an amazing way with dogs, even the most shy or skittish dogs immediately warm up to him. You'll never have to worry about your dog when they're in Michael's care! I can't say enough great things about him and his love for dogs, he's the best!

Information Michael M. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I’m happy to be as active as your pup requires. Personally, I enjoy riding my bike to the beach and enjoying the San Diego weather. I like to travel and see new places and enjoy local food. Listening to music while cooking makes me the happiest. If your pup is a swimmer, I’d love to bring them along with me to the beach or just go for a bike ride around town. There are plenty of great parks in the nearby area that would be perfect to explore and take in some new sights and smells! I’m always happy to stick to a schedule as well, so if there’s a specific few places that your pup is most accustomed to, we can definitely head there as well. If your pup is a little more on the easygoing side, I’m also happy to go on double cuddle duty as well.
