I'll Run With Your Dog!
Pet care experience
I am an avid dog lover and have a passion for caring for our furry friends and family. I have had a dog for 11 years and have been dog sitting part-time for the past 5 years. Caring for pets is a passion and I love dogs of all kinds! I am available Monday-Friday from 7am-5pm. I also enjoy going on runs, so if your dog is a runner, I am more than happy to walk (run) them! I understand that dogs are family, not just pets, and I am more than happy to care for your pups while you are at work or away!
Reviews
Michael is great with dogs!! He is extremely responsible for their care, including walking, dog sitting, administering medication, and playing. He loves to get down on the floor and play with the dog. You won’t find a better sitter than Michael!
Michael is a fantastic and loving care partner for any and every dog! He goes above and beyond, taking into consideration the needs and temperament of each pet. I have seen Michael caring for pets of friends, from three Labradors in a household to a small elderly Cockapoo. He can and will give your pet the attention they deserve.
We have used Michael numerous times to watch our 2 Akitas. Our dogs are 65 and 80 lbs respectively, and Michael is able to handle them with no problem. He is very timely and pays great attention to detail regarding the specific dietary needs of the dogs. We give our dogs a few vitamins, and one of them is on a special "Science Diet". Michael handles this with ease. He is also very good about getting the dogs out multiple times per day, as well as play and/or cuddles (depending on the "vibe" of the pups...haha). Professional, courteous, and trustworthy every step of the way. We would highly recommend Michael to handle the needs of you and your pup(s)!

Most weekends I am watching dogs. Whether it be my mom's dog, sister's dog, or friend's dog, I usually see at least one furry friend a week!
