Pet care experience
I focus on casual mentally stimulating neighborhood walk! Lot's of sniffs and exploring. I use positive reinforcement based training, and have been working with certified dog trainers on training basics and handling of fearful/anxious/reactive dogs. My only preference is to use body harnesses for all (when possible) dogs. If you do not have one, I can provide one. I employ low stress handling techniques using food lures to harness dogs that may be head shy. Most of my experience is with big or medium sized dogs, but I am confident working with any size/breed. I'm an all around animal lover and will do my best to make your pups as happy as I can. I am very patient and have plenty of experience with all sorts of animals. I come stocked with treats to share or you are welcome to provide your own. Cats: I currently have 3 rescue cats, Castile, Hunter, and Kevin T. Two former feral cats, that my partner and I have been helping gain confidence. With time, patience, and space, they've come a long way. With that said, I have experience with handling shy/fearful kitties, I also have experience medicating them when needed. Let me know what your cat's favorite treats are, and I will have them ready! More about me :) I'm a full-time walker/sitter living in West Oakland. I grew up with many animals as part of the family and at the ranch I grew up on. I've worked with all sorts of animals from dogs, cats, parakeets, rabbits, chickens, pigs, goats, and cows! Got a goat or cow that needs milking? I'm your man for that too! My boyhood dog of almost 17 years was named Kiser. He was a German Shepherd/Husky mix ,and the best dog a human could ever ask for!! I look forward to setting up a meet and greet with you and your pet! Once we have a date set up, I will send you a questionnaire to get to know your pet more, before we meet.
Reviews
Miguel is quite professional and asked for a thorough background on our dog before we met. He arranged to meet us in front of our home instead of inside so our dog could get to know him on more neutral territory, and he brought along plenty of fresh chicken snacks, which brought our dog to him right away. He did the same when he stayed at our home and got the dog comfortable with him quickly. Miguel sent us photos and copious notes each day so we always knew she was doing well.
Great job Miguel! Puppies love you! Thanks!
Miguel is really great! Highly recommend him!
I was very happy with Bogey’s stay with Miguel. He arrived on time and kept me posted with pics and updates throughout the visit. He took Bogey on walks and made sure he was fed and had company until I returned. I will be using Miguel for puppy sitting in the future.
