Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, Loving Dogfather for Hire
Well, my fur babies adore me — and I think that says a lot. I’m honest, kind-hearted, and give pets plenty of love, attention, and care. As a graduate student, I spend a lot of time at home, so your little ones will receive lots of attention and companionship throughout the day. I provide a clean home, a clean yard, and dependable, trustworthy pet sitting.

Ratings and reviews
Mike was a great joy to work with. Very reliable
Mike is reliable and truly goes the extra mile to make sure everything is going well. I appreciate his dependability and will definitely continue to use him in the future!
Mike took great care of my Kaya and was really easy to work with. I received lots of updates and Kaya came home smiling. I’ve already booked Kaya’s next visit.
Mike is awesome. He made a special effort to stop by and meet the dogs ahead of a last minute booking. He listens well and the dogs really seemed great. Will definitely book again!
Mike did a great job taking care of my two older dogs while I was away. He took them on walks and played with their favorite toys. He was very communicative and sent photos and updates promptly. He put my mind at ease during my trip. Will absolutely use him again.
Mike was a fantastic sitter. He made sure to send updates every morning and night, with pictures. He has a great little family and they are super accommodating. My flight got cancelled due to a huge storm and ended up landing at 4am the next day. He allowed Moose to stay an extra night with no problems whatsoever and really made me feel comfortable about where my dog was while I was dealing with a super long night of travel. I would absolutely recommend

Schedule
I’m currently in graduate school, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time at home. I’m available for pet care every day of the week except Mondays from 5pm–9pm while I attend class. Because I’m home so often, your pets will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important consistency, patience, and a calm environment are for pets, and I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care in a clean and safe home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in the Harvey Park area, which offers plenty of safe sidewalks, walking paths, and pet-friendly spaces for daily walks and exercise. I’m also just a few blocks from Harvey Park itself, giving dogs access to great outdoor environments and plenty of opportunities for stimulation and activity. I own my home and have a fully fenced backyard that I keep clean, secure, and well maintained for both pets and people. Creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment is very important to me, and I treat every pet in my care like one of my own. I’m comfortable accommodating a variety of care preferences, including crating or non-crating routines, medication schedules, feeding instructions, exercise needs, and other special requests. I understand every pet has unique routines and personalities, so I’m happy to be flexible and work with owners to provide the care their pets are most comfortable with.
