Pet care experience

Young professional who loves pets!

I've cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or structured playtime, I ensure each pet gets the care they need. Located in a cozy apartment near several great dog parks in Midtown and Brush Park areas - looking forward to meeting some new four legged friends!

Boarding • Sep 23, 2025

Michael was amazing with my little man, his updates made me feel so much more comfortable about leaving my puppy for the weekend knowing he was in such good care. He went above and beyond during my little man’s stay, working with me so well on the random things involved with puppy adjustment. The next time I need to have someone trustworthy and kind - I know exactly who to contact and look forward to him watching my dog in the future.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 07, 2025

It was my first time using the app. I was in Detroit and was nervous about leaving my furry baby with someone I didn't know, but I'm so happy it was Michael. He replied to my messages to check on her and was super nice. He took her for a long walk, which I'm sure she loved, and when I went to get her, I could tell she was well taken care of because she was calm and worn out. Thanks a lot, Michael.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a secure and comfortable environment, whether in my home or yours, and closely follow your pet’s routine to minimize stress. You can expect regular updates and open communication, so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.

A typical day

Each day is tailored to your pet’s needs. Mornings start with a walk and breakfast, followed by playtime or enrichment activities. Afternoons may include another walk, a relaxed break, or some engaging activities to keep your pet happy. Evenings wrap up with a final stroll, dinner, and downtime before bed.
