Ample K9 and feline experience
Pet care experience
I grew up with dogs and cats as pets since the time I was just starting to walk. I'm an animal lover through and through. I've owned all types of dogs from German Shepherds and Rottweilers to a Lhasa apso. So I am prepared and have experience with most types and sizes of dogs. Many times in my life I've had friends or relatives tell me to be careful because their dogs were not as people friendly as some other, only to have the dog take to me quickly. I volunteered at the Barc Shelter in Williamsburg, frequently. Currently working with a few different rescue agencies and fostering. Got my own puppy, Kenzie last May. I have been walking dogs for about 4 years and boarding in an apartment for longer.

Awesome!!! Rescued me and LOLA on a holiday and she was smittened by him
Michael is so patient and accommodating on our stays. He has been available at a moments notice, extremely reliable, and most importantly, understanding when I' scatterbrained and not entirely organized for the walks I need. Mr. Big loves him and is always happy and smiling at the end of their walks. We will definitely be using Michael in the future, and is our first go-to!!
Micheal was been very responsive from the moment we contacted him. And I'm so glad we did because he has been so great with my dog, Rhea. He makes sure to send me pictures and updates about her while he walks her and has even gone above and beyond to clean up after she made a mess in my apartment. Thanks Micheal and I hope you can continue walking Rhea :)
Michael is a great animal caretaker. He raised two happy and healthy cats throughout college and the years following. He loves to spend time with animals and is definitely responsible enough to take care of someone else's pet. I have asked him to sit for my cat several times in the past year, and he is always reliable and trustworthy.

I have a fenced patio and my own super friendly pup. We let our pets on the couch but can keep them off if that is your preference. Happy to crate over night or bring over their bed.

Information Michael O. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior tendencies. I'm looking for your dog to get the most our of my care so knowing any things specific to your dog in advance is super helpful.
A typical day
I am located right near Elings park and Arroyo Burrow beach - so I have plenty of outdoor space near by to run your dog around and tire them out. If dropping in to your place for a walk, I love exploring new neighbors while your dog can take in all the smells.
