I work from home full‑time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Pet care is a welcome and healthy break from my work routine, and I enjoy getting outside for walks, runs, or relaxed time with pets. I’m able to provide consistent care on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate pets who benefit from regular attention rather than long periods alone.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely, am attentive during walks, and am careful with leashes, doors, and feeding schedules. I aim to keep pets on their normal routines as much as possible so they feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is well cared for.

Information Mike B. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate learning as much as possible about your pet before our time together. Please share details about routines, feeding schedules, medications, allergies, behavioral quirks, leash manners, reactivity, or anxiety triggers. Let me know what your pet enjoys most and what to avoid. The more I know up front, the better I can provide consistent, safe, and personalized care that mirrors what they’re used to at home.

A typical day

A typical day is tailored to each pet’s energy level and personality. Most days include structured walks, sniff-heavy neighborhood exploration, and playtime with favorite toys to keep pets physically engaged and mentally stimulated. I also make sure there is plenty of relaxed indoor time and companionship, including quiet downtime and one on one attention. This balanced approach helps pets feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for throughout the day.

Consistent, Attentive Pet Care

Pet care experience

Caring for pets has been a consistent part of my life for many years. I've been caring for dogs owned by friends and family for more than five years, and cats for nearly twenty, giving me long‑term, day‑to‑day familiarity with routines, behavior, and individual needs. I primarily focus on caring for dogs and enjoy providing structured walks, outdoor time, and consistent companionship. I’m comfortable adjusting activity levels, whether that means longer walks or runs for higher‑energy dogs or a more relaxed pace for pets who prefer it. I’m also very comfortable caring for cats and understand the importance of routine, cleanliness, and respecting individual personalities. I work from home, which allows me to spend meaningful time with pets throughout the day rather than providing only brief check‑ins. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, litter box care, and basic medication needs when required.

Mike was really great on such short notice. He came by to do a meet and greet the next morning and took Theo for a nice walk. Would definitely use him again and recommend others!

Mike was extremely communicative and took great care of our house and baby Mattie. He took her on lots of walks and gave lots of updates throughout the weekend. Thank you Mike!

Mike is an outstanding pet caregiver. We trusted him with our dog Luna, and he was attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring throughout. Luna was happy and well looked after, and we had complete peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.

I cannot speak highly enough of Mike, he is the best! He is so good with our dog, Biscuit, and Biscuit adores him. He gets super excited every time Mike comes by. Biscuit loves playing with Mike and doing his tricks with him. Biscuit has a lot of energy but Mike is patient with him, good at reading him & knowing when to give him some time/space to calm down. A great guy & someone I trust with our dog.
