About Michael N.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a small house full of love. Our dog guests are invited to share our space but I always feed guest dogs in a separate bedroom and can use either bedroom for some quiet time as needed.
Home
Information Michael N. would like to know about your pet
Since your dog will be kept safe and treated as a guest we would need to know it's behavioral history and preferences. I'm keenly aware of the behavioral dynamics in play when meetings and competitive activities escalate. I won't risk the dogs under my care to aggressive breeds or individuals.
A typical day
Play fetch, go for group walks, take them to the orchard, play catch and lounge around after we're worn out from running and sniffing around the acres of fenced in dog friendly meadows and woods. At home we use Petsafe wireless electronic collars to keep our dogs on our property.

Reviews
I have two senior dogs that both did their business and enjoyed time with Mike while we were away. Mike letting them out gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands!
Micheal & his family were wonderful to Ripley! He was kept busy and given lots of love; Ripley’s Velcro personality was satisfied. Will be using Michael again - great care giver.
Michael is awesome! When we had the need for someone overnight Michael was our top choice and so glad he was available. Oreo just loves him as well as the chance to play with chilli and pepper!
Mike took great care of my girl for the day! She was able to run around & play with new friends and then rest in the home without needing a crate. I can tell he treats all of his clients like family.
