Information Michael Y. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pets, it’s crucial to know their unique needs and personalities to ensure they feel safe and happy. Please share details like their feeding schedule, any medications or dietary restrictions, and favorite activities or toys that keep them engaged. It’s also helpful to understand their temperament—whether they’re shy, energetic, or prone to specific behaviors like chewing or hiding.

A typical day

When watching your pets, I’ll ensure they have a blast with a variety of fun activities tailored to their needs and energy levels. For dogs, we’ll head out for lively walks in the park, play fetch with their favorite ball, or even set up a mini obstacle course in the backyard to keep them engaged. Cats will enjoy interactive playtime with feather wands, laser pointers, or crinkly toys to spark their hunting instincts, plus some cozy lap time for pets.

I have had my own dog, Bailey, for the past 8 years and grew up with dogs. My dog has always been my top priority and I’ve had the pleasure of giving her many different experiences! I am able to carry those skills over into caring for your pet!

Michael was awesome. Always on time, provided updates, and wore Diesel out. Haha. Will absolutely use again.
