Vacation for your Pets!

I've grown up my whole life around animals. I got the dog I have now 12 years ago. I've rescued dogs out of the middle of the rain in the night and found them homes. I love animals. My house has plenty of space as I live alone with my 12 yr old boy, Jacksson, and work full time from home as well. So I'm always available! He's a Shepherd Collie and is the sweetest, most gentle dog you'll ever meet. Let your dog relax here while you head out to where ever you need to go! Check out my instagram for all my highlights with my boy Jax! - mbwade99 I have nearly a 2,000 sq ft house. So your pet will have plenty of space to stretch out and relax. I love taking care of pets and making sure they get plenty of exercise if needed and making sure they know they're loved. I'm generally available any day of the week as long as I don't have anything else going. I have a fenced in back yard. I work from home, so I'm always home to keep an eye on them. Jacksson is very sweet and never bothered by other animals. He'll love to run and play with them as well when we toss the frisbee or the ball in the yard. I love animals and I want to make sure they know how much they're loved as well. I give you my word, your pet is safe and trusted with me while you're gone.

Michael was really great with working around my schedule for pick up and delivery - he kept me informed with how Millie was doing and sent me pictures and videos! She almost didn’t want to leave his house! Would definitely use again.

Michael stayed with our pup for 3 nights and we had a great experience. He and Titan definitely bonded and we were very happy with the communication and respect for our home.

Michael took good care of my babies while I was out of town. He was responsible, ensuring they were well-fed and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind to know they were in such good hands. He kept me updated throughout with photos and messages, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Very satisfied with my pup’s stay with Michael. I was sent updates and photos of her during her stay which made me so happy! I can tell she was truly living her best life, even getting cuddles on the couch! I would recommend Michael 100% and will definitely book again when I’m out of town and need a sitter!

Michael was very responsive and professional. He has a great house with a fantastic yard for dogs to play in. He went out of his way to take the dogs out to the park and gave them lots of attention. His passion for animals was very apparent and my dog left happier than when he arrived. 10/10 Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard. I work from home, so I'm always home to keep an eye on them. Jacksson is very sweet and never bothered by other animals. He'll love to run and play with them as well when we toss the frisbee or the ball in the yard. I love animals and I want to make sure they know how much they're loved as well. I give you my word, your pet is safe and trusted with me while you're gone.

Pets

A typical day

Your pet can join me and Jacksson on our daily walks twice a day and play fetch with us! We can do things for treats and get all the belly rubs!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

No females in heat
Michael can host up to 2 pets per night
I'm generally pretty flexible and willing to accept all types of animals and sizes! So just a general description of the animal and a meet & greet if the owner prefers would be fine for me!
