Friendly dog watcher.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Micheal... my doggy day care is a home of love! I will take care of your furbaby as if it was one of our own! I love what I do. If you are taking a vacation to Tahoe and need someone to watch your furbaby while you want to enjoy what Tahoe has to offer, I am here and ready to spoil your little one. I want you to enjoy your vacation knowing that your buddy will also enjoy his or her vacation. We take walks, hikes, go to the lake, we do 1 up to 10 miles, depending on the dog and weather. I am very active, and always ready to take on a fun adventure.  When I have your furbaby with me, they are never alone. They have 24/7 care and attention, i do not use kennels. Your baby is my baby. My sister taught me everything that I know, she is also a vet's assistant and she is a dog trainer. 🐕 if you have a puppy that is working on new commands just let me know what they are so I can keep their minds sharp. Also, if they are potty training I will work with them and help them use their potty pads, I will keep your pup on track and keep you updated on their progress. I also specialize in separation anxiety, I have learn along the way how to help your buddy not stress and enjoy their time with me, with lots of love and attention! Keeping them busy with fun activities, walking, play ball, learn new tricks etc, busy minds ease the mind. I always send lots of photos and videos, I will keep you constantly updated because I know how much you miss your little one and I want you to see how much fun they are having. When I have your love one in my care, I will instantly reply to you, I don't want you to worry on your vacation. Animals are the most innocent beings, they deserve understanding and so much love! ❤ I enjoy spoiling them! They give me so much more in return.

Michael was wonderful. He gave frequent updates with photos and even took our guy to the pet store for a new toy! Our dog is high energy and needs long walks which Michael was in tune with and kept our pup entertained and exhausted. I highly recommend his services.

Michael took great care of our dogs while we were snowshoeing for the day. He took them on multiple walks and sent a lot of pictures! They were tired and happy when we picked them up. Michael would be my #1 choice if we find ourselves in Tahoe again!

We were constantly well updated (with photos) on how our Kylo was doing. Looks like he had a great time. Thanks Michael!

Information Michael R. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any allergies? How many miles can your dog walk for? Is your dog aggressive when he/she is eating?

A typical day

Our home base is located near many walking trails including summertime trips to the river nearby. We are always sure to have all of our furry friends on leashes at all times. If when going on hikes, we always have a steady supply of water with us via camelbaks and water jugs/carriers. We also like to be well informed about how well your best friend is on a leashe, and for how long is a good and healthy walk/run.
