Your pets' second best friend!

Pet care experience

When I am not taking care of your pets I will go and volunteer at the austin humane society. I grew up with a pet on and off and loved it. As a child I was the one in charge of walking and feeding our dog and I found a love of animals. The more time I can spend with them the better

Michael did a fantastic job with our two dogs this weekend. He was very accommodating of our request which was last minute, the boys had a wonderful time with him and he sent lots of pictures and updates. We will definitely be booking him again in the future!

Michael did a great job making sure my pup was comfortable and very patient with her. She has a hard time being introduced to new people but he took his time with her and sent me a lot of updates on how she was doing. Definitely would use Michael next time we go out of town.

Michael did an outstanding job house and dog sitting over the 4-day weekend. His updates were timely, and he demonstrated great respect by asking insightful questions to ensure our expectations were met. We'd gladly hire him again!

Michael was very attentive with Arthur. Michael followed all of Arthur’s care instructions to a tee. Michael’s responses were always hasty and he was reliable at each drop in visit. Arthur was in great hands and when given the opportunity, I would book with Michael again!
