Safety, trust & environment

I focus on making sure your pup gets the attention and care they need while I am with them. Being home for hours can be stressful for pets, and I am happy to provide some care for them while you are away.

Information Michael M. would like to know about your pet

The most important information is anything needed to keep your pup healthy, followed what is important to keep them happy. For health and safety, this would include any medication that is needed, special needs they have, how to safely play and walk them, and anything I should look out for. It would also be helpful if they prefer a type of toy or play. Finally, if there is anything that I can do to help with training (potty training, basic commands, or other training), please let me know how I can help.

A typical day

A typical day with my dog, Luna, involved a morning and evening walk and some play out in the backyard. When I can, I'll take Luna on a short run so we can both get more intensive exercise. She is a middle-age dog, so in between walks and runs she is usually content laying on the bed or the couch.

Pet care experience

I have a 5 year old rescue that we raised since she was a puppy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and can adjust my style of care to meet your dogs needs. Sometimes more intensive exercise can be hard to find time for when owners are working during the day. I am more than happy to take your pup on a run with me around the neighborhood for those high energy pets! I will work with you to make sure I am providing the care that you want for your pup.

When I broke my foot, Mike was an absolute lifesaver. They stepped in right away to help with my dogs and were so reliable, kind, and patient. My pups loved them instantly (which says a lot!), and I never had to worry about a thing. They went above and beyond—always on time, great communication, and you can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they walk. I’m so grateful for all their help and can’t recommend them enough!
