Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll be your dogs uncle :)
Hi. I'm a born caregiver and that includes pets. Until their passing recently, I was my housemates dog walker, caregiver, sitter and dog uncle since 2010. While they were her dogs she routinely joked she was jealous they were far more affectionate with me. :) They were fed regularly, walked, played with, I put proper meds in their food, and often they fall asleep next to me. I also was my friends first choice for dog sitting and even pet sit for a CEO and SVP. In this job, you're not doing this to get rich, you do this because you CARE for animals. Because I cannot have pets where I live at, this allows me to be around pets to enjoy their company as pets have a way of making me smile and enjoy life even a bit more. I will treat your pet as my own and send you lots of pics and updates so you know your furry family member is cared for like you would.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Dante and I were housemates and was my go-to when I needed to have my pups cared for. He took great care of them and treated them as if they were his. He is responsible, caring and kind. I would highly recommend Dante to care for furbabies!
Michael has been an amazing dog sitter for my dog Pippi.. From the start, it was clear that he really cares about animals. Pippi was comfortable with him right away, and I could tell she was in good hands. Michael kept me updated with pictures and messages, which made me feel at ease while I was away. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!"
Not the best at these things but here you go. I've used Mike or Dante what he prefers to be called for several years and for that time he was my dogs best friend. My dogs at first had to sort him out like they do everyone but by the second meeting they ran to him and even scratch at the door when he leaves. He use to scratch their backs and play with their toys and they loved that! He also fed them on time, sent pics and even fell asleep around them if they got nervous like around NYE. He alerted me of weird behavior one time and although it was actually something very small I liked he noticed. Dante is a big guy but trust me he also has a big heart and big personality. Sometimes I didn't know who's having more fun running around my yard playing haha I mean that as a compliment. I trusted him and with my house dogsitting and highly recommend him.

Schedule
I currently work as a video/film editor as well as animation and music production so doing this PT allows me to continue that dream while getting exercise and being around pets as I cannot really have them at my place.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I listen to your directions and will treat your pet with the same care and love I would want with a pet if I had one. While others say one thing and do another, you really can trust that I'm honest, loving, caring. I can also help medicate if I'm placing meds inside their foods.
A typical day
I love playing with them and their toys including tossing balls, tug of war with their ropes, running and chasing them and lots of rummy rubs!
