I work from home and am with my dog all the time. Every single day I give him a 2.5 mile walk. It is his favorite part of the day. I provide his nourishment and emotional well being support. I have researched and given him the best food for his size and age. I never miss a vet appointment.

Pet care experience

Hello, I go by Cole. I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember. I've had three cats: Coco, Halley, and Taz. I've also had five dogs: Blossom, Keesha, Cody, Kyli, and Kronos. I've even had a snake, Slither. Growing up with pets taught me early on how important it is to give them love, structure, and consistent care. I’ve personally trained all of my dogs using positive reinforcement methods and make sure they get daily walks and plenty of exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I've even participated in a dog training class for my Labrador retriever, Cody. As a sitter, I bring that same dedication to every pet I care for. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or any other animal, I treat them with the attention and affection they deserve. I understand that pets rely on us for everything — we are their world — so I’m committed to giving them a safe, loving, and enriching experience while their families are away. My goal is always to make sure they feel at home and enjoy their very best life every single day.

Michael Owens is a superb person and very caring individual. He took care of our cats while we were on vacation. He not only cared for them each day but went over and beyond to interact with them and even sent pictures to us daily. I would highly recommend him to take care of all pets. He has shown he is a caring individual who without a doubt loves animals.

Cole would be an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker because he has always been devoted to caring for animals since he was a kid. He has never been without a pet from the time they were kittens or puppies until their final moments. He has provided them with unwavering love, comfort, and companionship. His caring and compassionate nature shines through in the way he treats every animal as a cherished member of the family. Cole is especially dedicated to his current dog, Kronos, whom he happily walks 2 1/2 miles every day. Each morning Kronos greets Cole with excited wags, knowing the day will be filled with play sessions, affection, hugs and plenty of pets. At night, Kronos falls asleep beside him, a testament to the strong bond and trust they share. In addition to caring for his own pets, Cole has experience dog and cat sitting, ensuring animals receive proper food, exercise, comfort, attention, and above all safety. His lifelong experience, reliability and genuine love for animals allow him to consistently exceed expectations and provide outstanding care for every pet entrusted to him. He has cared for my pets and I trust him explicitly

Michael is a wonderful, caring pet owner with a lifetime of experience caring for cats and dogs. Michael believes exercise is an important health benefit and walks his own dog over 2 miles daily. Michael is attentive and follows instructions/directions well. He will be a fantastic pet caregiver.
