Pet care experience

I have had the pleasure of knowing many dogs. All with different habbits, health needs, and personalities, so whatever you dog needs I can handle, or learn to. Any dog that needs a good run will be happy with me. If they require mass amounts of petting, I am that guy. I do have a lot of patience with animals and sometimes people, so if you have a very hyper dog I'll be just fine. I also have experience with administering medications that dogs are uncomfortable with, such as eye medication or pills. Now obviously everyone on this app love dogs to pieces, but I like dogs more than children and children are adorable. (And i promise not to kidnap your dog, no matter how lovable)

Michael is great with Phoebe, who is always happy to see him; takes amazing pictures; and left the apartment in great shape during his stay.

Michael was great! He has good energy and you can tell he loves and knows dogs. My dog Maya took to him immediately. He kept me updated on how she was doing and sent lots of lovely pics. I’ll definitely book him again:
