I have a fenced in acre of land. I also have a screen in back porch. If you have small dogs, they can run freely, and I would stay outside to watch them. If you have large dogs they can stay out all they want. Dogs love me! They know if you are of good character, or not.

Tender Loving Care

Pet care experience

I have had dogs, sometimes multiple ones, all my life. I am an animal lover, and advocate, of all kinds of animals. I just lost my Maltese of 13 years old which traveled the world with me literally. I was only away from him for two nights his whole life, and that was bc he spent the night at the vets one night, and I spent the night at the hospital one night. He went everywhere with me. From restaurants to Walmart. If I went he went. I have no children, so he was my child. I will treat your baby with the same love, and care. I have a newly build house with an acre that is fenced in. So, if your dog is large and likes to run outside, it can. I also have a screened in back porch. You baby will be safe and loved in my home.

Michael was wonderful with Newton! He played lots of fetch with Newton (which is Newton’s favorite game). Michael was also excellent with communicating with me keeping me updated about Newton and planning for drop off to make it go smoothly. I would absolutely have him watch Newton again!

Michael is amazing and went above and beyond for my pup Jax! He accepted my last minute booking without hesitation, which was such a relief. From the moment Jax arrived, I felt completely at ease. Michal kept me updated every day with the sweetest photos and made sure Jax was well cared for and comfortable. His home is not only beautiful but also spotless and pet-friendly. Jax got along great with Michal’s sweet dog, which made the stay even better. You can tell Michal truly loves dogs and treats them like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter 😩 thank you so much, Michael!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
