This was our first time needing someone to stop in and feed our cats while we were away. Michael was fantastic. Our kitties were well taken care of and we would 100% call Michael first next time we need someone.

Michael did an amazing job taking care of our 15 year old dachshund while we were on vacation. He sent lots of photos and updates to put our minds at ease. Our dog was happy as could be upon our return. Would absolutely book with Michael again!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear he genuinely to a liking to my Beethoven. He kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me a peace of mind. Michael went above and beyond to make sure my Beethoven was well taken care of. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable sitter.
