Michael can care for
Availability
I work from home most of the week and depending on if I am house sitting or just dropping in, my schedule is incredibly flexible to performing morning, afternoon, and evening check ins, walks, feedings, with ample time to play and give attention to your little ones to make sure they feel well taken care of while you’re away.

Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. Growing up with dogs and having a cat myself currently, I’m prepared for any walks, wags, purrs, and anything else your little ones throw my way. Available for extended stays, drop ins, and endless attention.

Reviews
Mike has taken care of our 3 dogs on a few occasions and he's been ever so doting of them! We would get daily updates and photos of the pups and they were clearly being loved while we were away. He's become our go-to sitter since he's thoughtful and clearly loved by our little ones.
What can be said about Michael... He is one of those rare humans you just trust completely... and my family of dogs seem to think so too. He watched and cared for my late dog Teddy like he was his own, and just came back to care for my two very different, very specific dogs. Winston is a newly adopted, curious, food obsessed whirlwind with a whole feeding routine and a lot of quirks. Hazel is a timid, anxious girl on daily anxiety meds who need constant reassurance. Mike didn't just manage them... he genuinely connected and thrived with them. Long walks, solo dog park trips for Winston, puzzles and bones to keep him occupied, and the kind of patience with Hazel that I was confident that she felt comfortable while I was away. His communication is excellent the entire time. Check-ins, thoughtful questions, updates without me having to ask. I never once felt out of the loop. He treated my home with total respect and my dogs like they were his own. If you're looking for someone you can actually exhale and trust while you're away... that's Mike. I can't recommend him enough. 🐾
Mike has cared for my cats on multiple occasions and has proven highly reliable, great at communication and demonstrably loving to my little guys. I should say I have four cats in a kind of small space and they are all relative youngsters, ranging in ages from 1-5 (when Mike started watching them). So they require a lot of attention, distraction and wearing down. Mike has been joyfully tiring them out for years now, and they reflect this care with a sense of safety and trust in his presence.
