Lover of animals & envy their naps

Pet care experience

I am an active dance educatior/performer/artist that will be able to run and walk with dogs lots. I love spending time with animals and both my partner and I are really wanting a dog right now but are unable to due to money. So this is an alternative. Even if I wasn't able to be at home with the dog full time my partner could be. We are both animal loving people so there would always be someone to take care of the dog(s). What sets me apart is that I feel dogs sense my friendliness and are instantly attracted to me. There has never been a dog around me that I was not able to connect with or walk and y'all care of I do not get bullied by the dogs because they know who is in charge without any discipline needing to be done. I would never hit an animal nor have I ever. The last dog I partly owned is a chow chow and I would have to control him when guest came over to my sisters house where he stayed due to him being protective. He is a big fluff ball to some and a bear to others so having to learn to handle him with new and even old people was a great learning experience. I look forward to meeting any new puppies and can't wait to spend time with them and form a bond!

Michael and Angel took great care of Lola. This was her second time with them. They had great communication and were very sweet.

Our dog Maya had a great time with Michael. In booking services, he was flexible and easy to communicate with. He made time to meet Maya and then visit one other time before we left town so we could get on the same page. While house sitting for us, Michael was responsive, sent a couple pictures to me of Maya, and was patient when she unfortunately had a couple accidents in the house.

Michael was very easy to communicate with, and he took good care of my pup Tony while I was away. He was happy and well as usual when I picked him up. I'll definitely be booking with Michael again knowing that Tony will have a good place to stay at while I'm away.
