I live to serve!

Pet care experience

Hello, Pet Parent! My name is Michael! I’ve been providing care for dogs and cats over the course of 5 years. I’ve served pet parents over these years on repeated schedules and one time services as well. I have an abundance of knowledge and experiences when it comes to providing the best care for your pets and avoiding harmful situations with other people and their pets.

I had previously used Michael and was very happy with his service. The most recent experience was not the same. I booked Michael for house sitting, Michael did not stay overnight once while I was gone. He would only come and check on Nala about twice a day. I had previously expressed to Michael that my dog is quite elderly and has bladder problems and needs to be taken out regularly otherwise she will have accidents. Which is exactly what happened, so much so that floor is now warping. I completely realize that accidents happen, but if he was unable to follow through with the service agreement that should have been communicated so I could have made proper arrangements. I have also reached out to Michael to give him the benefit of the doubt and get his side of the story, to which I have still received no reply. I will not be using Michael again.

Michael stayed at my place with my 10 year old monster. I did not have any issues. He checked in regularly, sent pics, and was easily accessible if need be. Would definitely use him again.

The reviews are true! Michael is awesome, your pup is in great hands. He took great care of our 90lb rescue mix for the weekend. Would recommend him to all.
