Safety, trust & environment

As long as your dog/cat does not bite and can listen to some degree, then I will be perfectly ok with them! They can go on any sort of furniture in my house and will not be confined, unless stated to do so by the owner (you!). I will feed your dog/cat according to your schedule and will contact you ASAP if there is any sort of issue. Another thing to note is that I prefer that your dog is on a harness rather than a collar, especially if they love to walk. I have discovered over the years that dogs can get out of a collar MUCH easier compared to a harness, so this is more for my own sanity. Thanks! They will be in loving hands!

A typical day

I will keep your dog occupied! I will try my best to take them on walks around my block and/or to the park. I will be sure to feed them on time and to give them attention afterwards (pets + toys). I will also be sure to send you pictures of your dog, just so you know that they’re doing ok!

Pet care experience

I started taking care of dogs when I was young and my neighbor asked if I wanted to take care of their dog. Ever since then, I have loved taking care of other peoples dogs and have done so ever since. I have only done sitting for Friends and Family as of starting this, but I am more than willing to take care of any other dog(s), and give them the proper love and attention that they need while you’re away! :) I am free for almost the entire week. I do most of my college and other work online, with the only physical obligations being my class on Mondays and Wednesday (only a 1 hour long class), and any appointments that I may already have (which I will let you know of before hand. I have an open yard with no fence, but your dog(s) will always be on a retractable leash and tended to so they can roam free and to wherever they need! I have 1 little terrier mix of my own who is older, but he tends to keep to himself and not mind the company at all (although he does bark a lot)! They will be fed to whatever your liking is, and will be tended to as needed. They will be in safe and good hands, with a watchful eye over them to make sure they stay safe!

Michael was great. My Sparty felt comfortable and safe with him since our initial meet and greet. Michael was so calm and gentle with him. Will definitely be rebooking. Thanks Michael!

Awesome sitter! Will definitely use Michael again. He is quick to respond via the app, lots of photos, the dogs were happy, and I had zero worries that they were all cared for throughout.

Micheal took great care of Ellie and sent us lots of pictures of Ellie smiling at the camera and straining her leash. :)
