Information Michael S. would like to know about your pet

General temperament, potty needs, dietary restrictions, and anything unique about them that I need to know. No breed preferences as long as they are friendly and get along with other dogs.

A typical day

Walking around the neighborhood and to the local parks, playing tug of war and fetch, cuddling on the couch, and lots and lots of attention.

Pet care experience

I've cared for dogs, cats, and other pets since I was roughly 10 years old, and I’ve been on Rover since September 2019. I've worked for hire as well as for family and friends. I grew up with dogs and have been around big to small dogs, puppies to seniors, my whole life. My schedule is flexible and very open. I work from home and should be working from home for the foreseeable future. If I do have to go somewhere, I won’t leave the dogs unattended for more than four hours. I have a fenced, good-sized yard. Great neighborhood, safe and good for taking walks. I have one small, friendly dog who gets along with people and other animals.

Had to book a last minute visit to check on my pets while I was out of town - responsive/helpful and generally eased my worry of making sure my cats were good and healthy after original care plans fall through mid trip. Thanks for being so quick to respond and available - truly a life saver. Definitely would recommend

Michael was wonderful with my cat while I was traveling. Very kind, communicative and professional. He even left her an extra little bag of treats. Highly recommend.

Michael was flexible and communicated well with texts and pictures. His back yard is set up well to welcome dogs. We will definitely contact Michael again for our dog sitting needs

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
