Looking for repeat clients

Pet care experience

I have been a full time sitter for over a year! You can count on me being available in the future and not just a one off! When other sitters cancel on you last minute you can be sure I won’t. First visit is always good second is always better would love to build a trusted relationship with you and your pup! I’m set up a little different and focus on quality over quantity I want the right owners who respect me and my time. I can drop in/walk for around $20-25 a visit at your house if wanting to keep pets at your home! If boarding at my house for first time I ask for meet and greet at Laurel Park - less than 20 min walk from house - and a trial for anything over 3 days. Girlfriend plays good cop and the dogs love her and get plenty of mom time tons on weekends! I Have a gate in the house to easily separate during feeding. I will ask you to read profile and answer the questions below so I know we are on same page.

Michael continues to be an amazing sitter for our fur ball. He is great at providing updates and pictures to us and it always makes me feel good when Jackson gets excited to see him as I know he loves spending time there and is treated well.

Michael was awesome! He was super communicative with photos and all of our pets were very happy to see him when he stopped by to drop off the keys. We will definitely continue to book with Michael!

Michael is AWESOME! It’s truly apparent how much love, care and respect he has for animals with the way he cared for and prepared for Liv to come stay with him. I appreciated the level of communication, and flexibility he had when my transportation coming back to STL was messed up and had to pick up Liv late, he was so empathetic to my situation. Liv takes some time to warm up to people but it was obvious she was relaxed when I picked her up and had a good time with Michael and the other dogs staying in his home. If you’re looking for a GENUINE pet lover to care for your four legged family members who values your time, communication and the happiness of every party definitely book with Michael! Liv will be a returning guest for life. Thanks so much Michael!

A typical day

Lots of play time with my dog who has been socialized with all sorts of dogs since he was a puppy. Depending on weather trips to tower grove park or tiffany park. I let dogs outside my side door into the fenced yard every few hours so they get plenty of outside opportunity! I have the ability to give your pups way more exercise than they typically get through walks and interaction with other dogs, or I can put your pup in a quiet place for them to just hangout you let me know I can cater to any dog's personality and needs.
