Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable Pet Caretaker
I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 15 years. I grew up with dogs—raising them from puppies to seniors—and currently have two cats of my own. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and give oral meds to their pets, and I’ve had experience with shy and anxious animals too. I focus on day-to-day care, attention, and companionship when working with others’ animals.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I aim to maintain their normal routine and create a calm, safe, and familiar environment. I’m respectful of your space, follow any specific instructions or house rules, and make sure your pet feels relaxed and well-cared for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feedings, or medication, I handle it all with consistency and care.
Ratings and reviews
Michael is great! Very communicative, reliable and thorough. He makes sure I come back to a clean litter and even cleaned up cat vomit - sorry Micheal. I appreciate your care and know they are in good hands with you when I'm out of town.
Michael was absolutely amazing!! From the very first message he was super responsive and on point. When we met him, he was so sweet with our pup—we just knew right away he was the perfect fit. He showed up on time, followed her routine perfectly, and kept us updated with pictures every day. He was also super communicative if she needed anything, which gave us total peace of mind. Honestly, 10/10 recommend Michael—we’ll definitely be booking him again soon! Thank you so much!!
He is very responsible and responds within 1 hour or so. My dogs love hin
Michael took such great care of Summer! Everything went smoothly and we really appreciated the updates. Definitely recommend :)
Michael is our pet whisperer. He has a gift with dogs and cats. When we need pet sitting from someone who seems to instantly bond with our furry family, we call Michael. You will be happy if you use him, I am sure.
Michael is a natural with dogs. He is calm, patient and detail-oriented. Michael is responsible, follows instructions carefully and keeps us updated, creating a stress-free experience for pet owners. We highly recommend Michael. Elaine B.

Schedule
My schedule is flexible and varies day-to-day, but I can often be free most of the day when needed. Morning walks are especially convenient for me, and I’m sometimes available on short notice. I work part-time and pet care often fits in well around my other responsibilities. I have a car and can travel locally without an issue.
