Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or my client's home. I create a secure and pet-friendly environment by removing any hazards and ensuring all doors and gates are properly locked. I maintain open communication with pet owners and strictly follow their care instructions, providing updates and photos to keep them informed.

Information Mike M. would like to know about your pet
Before our time together, it's important for me to learn all about your pet's unique preferences and needs. Whether they have favorite toys, specific walking routes they love, or certain games that get them excited, I want to make sure I’m fully prepared. Knowing about any dietary restrictions, health considerations, or behaviors they might exhibit helps me provide the best care and ensure we have a safe, fun time together.
A typical day
For the pets I watch, we’ll have a mix of fun activities tailored to their personalities and energy levels. Whether it's long walks in the park, playing fetch, or some interactive indoor games like tug-of-war or hide-and-seek, I make sure they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. For pets who prefer a more relaxed pace, we'll enjoy some quality cuddle time and gentle play. Every pet has their own way of having fun, and I aim to make our time together enjoyable and engaging for them.

Reviews
Mike and Mary were awesome! Our dogs were clearly comfortable and so happy the whole time, even our super timid dog. They communicated often, and they were super flexible with some hiccups from our end. I highly recommend them!
Mike is so great with our corgi!! We never want to leave our pup behind, but we have peace of mind leaving him with Mike, knowing he will be well-cared for while we’re away. And Mike sends the best pictures and updates!
Mike was very attentive and communicative with Remy’s care! Remy came home and was well rested, we could tell he had a great day while his mom & dad were at work.
We know that Maci will always be well taken care of and loved. Communication with Mike is easy and we highly recommend!
