Highlights
Pet care experience
Devoted Care, Trustworthy Service
I offer a unique approach to pet care that prioritizes the individual needs and preferences of each furry friend. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and respect they deserve. With years of experience and a personalized approach, I consult closely with pet owners to tailor my care to their pet's specific needs. Whether it's ensuring a reliable and responsible companion, providing personalized care tailored to individual needs, or simply offering a loving and attentive presence, I am dedicated to creating a positive and fulfilling experience for your beloved animal.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets, I take into account their unique personalities and needs. This includes standard care such as feeding, walking, and playing. However, the one-on-one dynamic adds an extra layer to our interaction. I strive to be accommodating to the expectations and preferences of both the pet owner and the pet. Please feel free to let me know exactly what your pet needs, whether it's their favorite toy, special treats, or any specific accommodations they require. Additionally, if your pet is introverted and prefers space during care, I am more than happy to accommodate their needs. How I care for pets may vary depending on the service I offer, whether it's in my home or yours.
Ratings and reviews
Michael did a very good job house sitting with our cat and dog. They both seemed very happy and content when we came back, and the house was in good order. Michael was also very responsive over text and kept all our house sitting instructions in mind. He was also flexible on arrival time, and kept us in the loop for when our pets needed to be left alone. Overall, I would call Michael again for house sitting!
Michael came in at the last moment, when our scheduled sitter cancelled at the last minute. He was very professional and methodical and kept everything in tip-top order. Most of all, he made sure that our fur babies were cared for, and Steve, being 18 years old, needs a lot of attention. I cannot recommend Michael enough! Thank you!
Professional. Reliable. Caring. Problem solver. Great communication. If he’s available, book him. Don’t think twice about it.

I can’t recommend Michael highly enough. He was very communicative, took time to stop by and get to know the dogs, their schedule and routine, feeding instructions etc. he was very thorough with his questions and took a lot of notes. Michael also gave nice updates during the stay and asked questions along the way. He was great with the dogs and I trust they had a great time with him. Looking forward to rebooking him for many more house sitting reservations as I travel quite a bit. Highly recommend!
Michael S. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Michael was a great choice for us and did a wonderful job with our two dogs. He was house-sitting and dog-sitting at the same time, and his attention to detail gave us confidence in his dedication to the job. He's a very professional young man, takes the job seriously, and is very communicative and punctual.

Schedule
Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine thanks to the flexibility of managing my own business and side projects. This allows me to prioritize and accommodate the needs of your pet effectively. After providing my services, if you feel we're a good match and require more immediate or long-term assistance beyond what's outlined on my website schedule, we can discuss personalized arrangements for ongoing support.
