Dog Lover 4 Life

Pet care experience

I have over 20 years experience training, loving and taking care of all types of dogs. My Labrador Honey, although 10+ years old (who gets mistaken for 4-5yrs old) will accompany us, she loves to run and hike with me, and I believe that she looks so good/ has all that puppy energy because of our outdoor adventures together! Rest assured that your dog will be safe and secure with me but most importantly they will be happy and feel loved in my care. We have a huge fenced in backyard with grass for your dogs to run around and play! We can head over to Barton Springs Pool (dog area) it's an easy walk or we can drive depending on the temperature outside Let me know if you have any questions! Thank You

Michael Is great! He’s quick to respond. Avaliable when we need him most and my dogs come back very satisfied after their walk with him. I would highly recommend him.

This was my first time using the dog sitting option on Rover and I couldn't be happier with Michael and his wife Luisa. I have a very energetic pup that has endless energy , who was actually worn out after a day with these two. She got to play with their lab Honey all day, swim in Barton springs, and play at Lady Bird lake. If your looking for an active couple that will treat your dog as though it was their own, then I strongly recommend these two. Thank you Michael and Luisa!

Michael and Luisa were amazing. Angus loved them both and to make sure all was well, they made two visits with him before our gig, so that our big boy would get to know them. When we returned home, our mail was collected and Angus was happy to see us, but calm. A great example of how well he was cared for. We received pictures each day documenting how well Angus was doing, which we really appreciated. Thank you Michael and Luisa!

Michael was by far the best sitter we have ever used. I could tell my Pep was having fun by the many pictures and text updates he sent through his stay. Pep was treated so well and knowing that he was in safe hands made our vacation much more stress free. We hope to use Michael in the future!
