Pet care experience

Local, Quality, Low-cost Pet Care!!

I have been caring for dogs in home or by drop in visits to other's homes for 8 years. I trained my dogs myself and also have many repeat long term dog friends who always enjoy their stay! Boarding / Daycare: Dogs are like family in this home! I have a fenced in yard big enough to run and play! Lots of cuddles, play time, and attention for everyone. My spoiled dog has so many toys to share! Dogs are allowed on couch if you allow it. We like to stick to familiar rules as the owner for routine sakes. I am home all day and able to provide potty breaks and play time frequently. Big back yard for dogs to play. Drop-Ins: If you need help with your fur babies during the day due to long hours at work or a puppy who can't wait all day, reach out for quick, honest, and safe care for your pets at home. Your pet will be in great care! Dog Walks: Able to provide exercise for dogs throughout the day, and same day availability! Great leash skills, with all dog sizes and dog safety is my priority.

Dog Walking • 08 Sep 2025

My Babies came back tired! And I loved it! I was updated and made aware of they're activities on their walk and will hire again.

Drop-In Visits • 30 Jul 2021

I have a new puppy and work 8 hours a day normally my dad comes by everyday for 30 mins a day to hang out with Baymax but he was out of town and I found Michael on Rover. Micheal did an amazing job keeping my puppers happy! I will definitely be relying on him for future needs for Baymax. Thanks again!

Boarding • 27 Jul 2021

Michael got back to me and arranged a meet and greet quickly. The drop off was easy. My dogs were happy with the stay, and enjoyed the large fenced backyard.

Michael has watched my dog on many occasions with no issues. Communication is always clear and I know I never have to worry when dropping my dog off. I highly recommend Michael for a stress-free dog sitting experience.

Michael has been a good friend of mine for a long time. He is the only person I trust to watch my pups when I go out of town. He’s caring, communicates very well, and is just all around great with dogs.

Michael has taken great care of my dog! He is willing to communicate as much as you'd like without an issue. He even takes the time to update me on my dog so I can have peace of mind! He has experience with dogs of all kinds and sizes. I have recommended him to friends and family!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to run. My dog loves to play fetch in the yard and has plenty of toys and balls to share. During our downtime we like to cuddle on the couch. My dog is house trained and left out when I leave. Your dog can be crated if they do best or left out if they are house trained as well.

Pets

A typical day

I don't like to keep my dog bored all day. Exercise is good for everyone in this house. I try to do a daily walk around the neighborhood to let my dog explore the different smells and see things while being active. If I don't do a walk he will always get to play fetch several times a day, especially before I leave so he's tired while I'm gone.

Michael can host up to 2 pets per night
I am open to boarding puppies who still aren't potty trained, open to learning about a dog's medicine routine if needed, and if you have a senior dog who needs quiet and rest, my dogs are good about giving others their space.
