I enjoy running more than your dog

Pet care experience

I've taken care of my own my dog for 14 beautiful years, from puppy to old age. I've also walked and babysat several neighbors dogs; I'm also training for a triathlon so for my shorter runs I can make the dog gets the exercise it needs!

Michael is super caring, accommodating and has a really good read on dogs. Our pup is super selective with who she trusts…but she warmed up to Michael - all thanks to the effort that Michael put in with her. Plus, lolee gets to sprint on her walks, which she otherwise is not able to!! Glad to have you as our dog walker Michael!!!!

Michael was amazing with our husky Alaska. They took her for a nice walk, they sent us videos and pictures and took a really good care of her. We are definitely booking again 😀

What can I say? My sweet 10 month old french bulldog, Moose, had the time of his life with Michael and his wife! The best part is that I was kept updated with pictures and videos throughout the day of Moose playing, going on walks, and Moose's favourite- cuddling. I could tell by Moose's demeanor in the pictures that he felt right at home, comfortable and safe with Michael and his wife. This was my first time booking with Rover and I can confidently say I would book Michael and his wife again when the time comes. They are great communicators and also extremely accommodating when my husband and I were running late for pick up and needed a bit of extra time getting him. If you're thinking about booking Michael, just do it. Your pup will have the best time!
