About Michael R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have the utmost respect for my clients home & property and the safety of their pets is paramount. I will give your pet the attention it needs.
Information Michael R. would like to know about your pet
Age and general health. If they're aggressive towards people, wildlife and other dogs they see in the street, yards or houses Petting likes and dislikes. Fears and phobias. If yard is fully fenced in. Feeding schedule and medication info. (if applicable)
A typical day
I typically go by what owners and pets are comfortable with. I'm happy to take for walks but would only stay on and around the block unless otherwise instructed. So I do not take pets into woods, trails or parks without owners instructing to do so. I do not walk dogs in thunderstorms but will let them out into yard. I love playing fetch in securely fenced in yards, giving lots of belly rubs, playing tug of war (if applicable). I like to sing to dogs, often taking popular & classic songs and replacing lyrics with pets name. Cats are fun too! If they're friendly and playful, i love playing with string and toys.

Pet care experience
I moved here from Long Island in December 2021 where I was a full time pet sitter for almost a decade having many repeat and satisfied customers. I've cared for dogs of all ages and sizes from a 7lb Yorkie puppy to a 180lb senior St.Bernard. I love cats too! Also have farm experience taking care of chickens, goats & cows.

Reviews
Micheal was so accommodating to my doggie's needs. He even came for two meet and greets since one of my dog is quite timid and needs a lot of familiarity before trusting someone. It is obvious he loves animals and i felt more than comfortable letting him care for mine!
Michael did a terrific job with my dog, who is cautious about whom he lets near. Upon Michael's arrival, my dog melted at his touch. I knew I would leave my dog in good hands. Michael was even able to calm my dog during a thunderstorm while I was gone. I highly recommend using Michael for pet sitting needs!
My cats both loved Michael (especially my usually picky little diva). He was kind and responsive, and very communicative at all times.
Michael is absolutely awesome as a dog walker/sitter. He came every day to walk our English bulldog while we were at work, and was very reliable and very wonderful with Tyson. He even came to say goodbye to Tyson before we had to put him to sleep. I would strongly recommend Michael to anyone who’s looking for a caring and reliable person to take care of their pet.
