Caring in-home pet srvcs & delivery

Pet care experience

Official Petsit USA Member. I love all pets! Ever since I was a small child, I've had a special place in my heart for pets. And not just dogs and cats! I grew up in a house with horses, ferrets, hamsters and fish too. I even once had a pet alligator! Growing up in a house that had so many animals roaming around, I learned over the years how to properly care for and tend to the needs of many different pets with many different personalities. I've always enjoyed working with animals, so this is something of a part-time dream job for me. It doesn't really feel like work when you're doing something you love! Currently I only have 1 pet myself - my 9 year old Jack Russell named "Sergeant". But I would love to get to know you and your pets! I provide various in-home pet services including pet/house-sitting, pet waste disposal, multiple feeding routines, dog washing and coat conditioning, basic medication administration, pet walking (because some cats like walks too!), and many others! I also provide some delivery services, including filling & dropping off your pet's medications, purchasing & delivering your pets favorite foods & treats (from your vet or from pet stores), and delivering other pet supplies from local stores when needed. I also provide some basic pet transport services, including safely transporting your pet to/from the vet and/or groomer. If there's something you need, please feel free to contact me with any questions and I'm certain we can work something out :) Thanks!

Michael has been a family friend since he was a teenager. He absolutely loves animals and they love him back! We went on a trip last fall for over a week and Michael feed, watered and snuggled with our dog and 2 cats. Dixie, our dog, adores Michael! She loves the treats he gives her and the time he spent with her outdoors. She is very old and he is gentle and understanding. Michael has a heart for this job and you will not be disappointed!

Michael is a very good with Dogs and as taken care of my dog on many occasions, he was very attentive to details! If they was ever a problem he would take care of it! He walked, fed and took care of my mutt one weekends, holidays or when ever we went on Vacations He could all way be counted on when needed! He honest and loves Animals and can be trusted to take care of your pet like it's his own!

Information Michael W. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I use positive reinforcement methods, so I will need to know what type of dog treat you and your pet prefer. Also, as an owner of a dog who isn't comfortable with strangers or new people being in contact with him, I understand that dogs' personalities can vary greatly. I will not to sit or walk dogs who have been *purposely* trained to be aggressive (such as guard dogs, attack dogs, etc). However, I don't have an issue sitting or walking dogs who take a little while to get comfortable around new people. I understand that not all breeds are as loving and trusting as Labs, and I'm willing to work with your pet so that he/she feels safe and comfortable around me, as long as you feel that it's a good fit. Regardless of how friendly your pet and I become, rest assured that I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is loved and well taken care of in your absence.
