Pet care experience

I've always been the go-to guy for taking care of pets with my friends & family & anyone they know so it's not new to me. Whether it's a super hyper dog that jumps all over you or a nice relaxed dog that likes to lay next to or on you, I just like being around them! I have plenty of dog toys for them to play with & I keep some treats around. My house is on a steep hill so walking your dog is can be good exercise for them too. I take them out to use the bathroom regularly or whenever I can tell they need to (I'm pretty good at that). And I don't mind if they get on any of the furniture, including my bed if they like to sleep with someone at night. I've been boarding pets for over 5 years now so I have a lot of experiance. I have epilepsy so I'm disabled & have made this my job. When boarding someones pet I'm always their to take care of all of their needs & keep them company. I live with my mom so that's another person to keep your dog company too. I basically give them free roam of my house & let them get on the furniture if they want. This includes my bed if like to have someone to sleep with. I take them out to use the bathroom when I wake up & before I go to bed. I also take them out daily for walks unless they're just not healthy enough for that type of activity, in which case I'll give them some extra time to get some fresh air when I take them out to use the bathroom. I'll follow any sort of instructions you have to take of them, whether it's a special diet they're on, medicines, or how often you want me to take them out for exercise. I've cared for pets with special needs before so I'm use to it.

This is our second time leaving our cats with Mike for over a week. He was great and will book again.

My dogs were so happy. They treated my babies like their own. I was sent updates and pictures reassuring me on Penny's and Oysters first trip away from home. Can't recommend them enough! They will definitely be back ❤️

Information Mike J. would like to know about your pet

If I can give them treats? Any specific activities you'd like me to do with them? How many times a day to feed them & what to feed them? Are they allowed on furniture? Any medical problems they have? Any medications they take? Certain Veterinarian you would want me to take them to. And just what kind of personality do they have?

A typical day

I live on top of a hill in a culdesac so as far as walking goes I can let them just walk around the circle or walk them down & up the hill. If they like to go out side & play fetch or tug on a toy I have a large yard for that. If it's a smaller dog that likes to do these things inside, we can do that too. I have a good sized doggy bed for them to lay on too but I don't mind them laying on my lap, up against my leg, or even if they manage to steal my seat from me! We'll always be around each other & It'll show in the selfies we take together.
