Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover & Shelter Volunteer 🐾
What sets me apart is my decade-long experience with dogs and my volunteer work at a local shelter. I have a genuine passion for animals and offer attentive care for dogs and cats of all ages. My approach is to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment while you're away.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We’ve had Mike watch our high-energy Husky, Rambo, several times, and this time he took care of him for nearly two weeks while we were out of town. Since it was an extended trip, we trusted Mike to make sure Rambo was well taken care of, and he did a great job. Mike kept us updated with pictures, videos, and messages throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Rambo was in good hands. It was obvious Rambo was getting plenty of attention and was well cared for. Mike has been great every time we’ve used him, and Rambo is always happy to see him. We highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter.
Mike took SUCH great care of our elderly dog baby! She gets anxious with storms and can take a while to get used to a place and he made her feel right at home. I would highly recommend Mike to everyone. Great communication and updates!
Mike is absolutely wonderful! Luka is not an easy guy to look after - he is sweet but he has some odd quirks and Mike handles it like a pro!
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.

Schedule
I work from home as an IT manager, which gives me flexibility and allows me to be present for your pets throughout the day. My background in technology helps me stay organized, while my love for animals ensures that your pets get the care and attention they deserve. I bring both reliability and compassion to every pet-sitting job.

Home characteristics
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.
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.
