Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet care from a caring pet owner
I've grown up around dogs and learned to take care of them since I was 11 years old with two beloved Labradoodles, Mackenzie and Poppy. Knowing each of them since they were puppies and like family members, I know exactly what they need to be healthy and happy. As a sitter with years of experience fostering animals from my local shelter "Small Miracles" in Ellicott City, I've made it my goal to show others pets just as much love that I've shown to my own dogs.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my clients homes, I always make sure the pet feels comfortable around me before I approach them, always making sure that they're the one to initiate an interaction that lets them feel safe, while presenting myself as calm. I adore spending time and playing with animals in a safe environment.
Ratings and reviews
Communicative and kind. My kitty loved him!
Michael is a great dog walker and pet sitter! Bailey is obviously very happy to see him, eagerly greeting him when he arrives, and cheerfully trotting off with him for his walk.
Professional, courteous, communicative, and extremely sweet/caring with my large (100lb+) dog. Lots of status updates and photographs during the sit. Everything I could ask for - thank you!
Michael is kind and patient with Bailey’s enthusiastic and overly loud greeting. Bailey happily went with him for a walk and is getting comfortable relaxing with him in the house.
Michael is great with Bailey, he is patient and comfortable with a big dog with lots of energy.
Michael was prompt, courteous, and comfortable meeting my big goofy dog. We had a great meet and greet and he did an excellent job walking Bailey. Michael took the time to learn about Baileys history, so he could better understand him and have a good relationship.

Schedule
As a student coming home from college for the summer, my schedule is wide open for pet care most days of the week, with only the occasional evening theatre rehearsal in my schedule creating any kind of conflict
