Mike can care for
Availability
I'm self-employed and usually work from home, so I'm very flexible. I can come by for drop-in visits almost anytime. When house sitting, I'll bring my laptop along, so I shouldn't need to leave your pets alone much at all.

Pet care experience
I grew up on a hobby farm where we bred and trained Labrador Retrievers. I have lots of experience walking, training and playing with dogs of all ages including senior dogs and puppies. I currently have two cats that I adopted as kittens from an animal sanctuary and I love them so much! Before them, I adopted a deaf senior cat that would've been dropped off at an animal shelter by their previous family when they moved across the country. I've looked after cats including seniors and kittens for over 20 years.

Reviews
Mike was awesome for our cats while we were away for the week. He was super responsive and even gave our cat, Delsey, ear drops and cleaned her ears as needed. We will definitely rebook Mike in the future.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn't be happier with the care Mike provided while looking after our senior English Bulldog, Diesel, for three days in our home. Mike was kind, caring, dependable, and trustworthy from start to finish. One of the biggest signs of excellent care was how relaxed and content Diesel was when we returned home. There were no signs of stress, which gave us great peace of mind knowing he had been comfortable and well cared for in our absence. Mike kept us updated throughout his stay, sending messages and updates that reassured us Diesel was doing well. He was also punctual, arriving and leaving exactly when he said he would. Our home was left neat and tidy, and it was wonderful knowing we could trust someone both with our beloved dog and our home. We highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We will definitely be using his services again!
For the first time in my her life we left for a full week vacation. A sensitive dog she needed the right amount of attention, and knowing. Knowing how she asks for things, knowing what she likes. Knowing the human caring for her was watching and connected. That’s Mike for her. As a professional in Dog Psychology, choosing Mike means you are at a better starting point for your dog, and a worry free downtime for you. I always recommend a build-up so relationship of trust can grown between the sitter and your dog. Mike has earned this with my dog and with us. Highly recommend Mike to honour your dog, your routine, and your home. - Sparky Smith
Mike was fantastic with our dogs! Came to meet us before hand, played ball with the dogs and provided pictures during his drop ins. They love to see him coming! Will definitely have him again and hope to see him regularly!
