Pets R Us

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up having both dogs and cats so have many years experience of both. I’ve trained many puppies and have helped friends train theirs as well. I’m aware that different dogs have different energy levels so I aim to cater walks to their own needs.

Michael has been amazing every request we’ve made, we usually need a sitter at short notice and he never disappoints. Very experienced with animals and nothing is ever a bother. Will 100% be using Michael as our regular dog walker/sitter from now on 😊

Was able to book at short notice and add an extra day on without any issues. My little dog came home happy and content, so had clearly felt safe and secure with Michael.

Micheal is very good with my dogs, he has took them on walks, and has watched them whilst I have been out. He is very interactive with them and thoughtful.

Michael has been great with looking after both my mainecoon cats. He was available short notice, and was able to keep on top of my cats grooming which can be difficult with their long fur and behaviour. Michael also kept to my cats strict diet as they have dietary issues he also made sure to keep them mentally stimulated by playing with them often. He kept me updated throughout my booking so I was always reassured everything was going well. I would definitely recommend and re book again fantastic service.

Information Michael R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know in advance if there’s any medications or specific requirements in looking after your pet and what their typical day to day routine is as home.

A typical day

Dogs will have plenty of physical and mental stimulation, I have plenty different treat puzzles to keep their minds busy and there’s a lot of different walking routes near by to keep them busy exploring new smells. I also have a dog that absolutely loves to play so they definitely wont be bored.

I’m currently trying to get back into a working life but doing something I enjoy so looking after pets is my ideal job, I always felt guilt leaving my animals so I hope to relieve that feeling from you by providing excellent care for them whilst you’re away.
