Information Mike M. would like to know about your pet

Tell me about your pets walking habits and preferences. Eating habits, treats, and anything else relevant to them being cared for. Please make sure I have their vet contact if necessary. Also - if you use a GPS tracker (AirTag, etc.) - feel free to share that with me.

A typical day

Walks, long or short, at whatever pace works for your special friend. If you have a secure yard, we can play fetch if they like. If they just want attention at home and a belly rub, that's fine too.

I can't say enough about how terrific Mike and his wife were with Jackson. They took him for a walk, he played in the water and even went for a boat ride. They were sure to check everything they had considered they might do ahead with us. Top notch sitters and great people.

Mike watched my dog on Friday for yhe day. He took her out and walked her multiple times. When I was running late her went back down and fed her for me. I would definitely use Mike again.

These are the best people my dog has encountered. They answered me for a last minute request on Rover which was a huge blessing. My dog got the chance to experience life on a boat for a day. They interacted with her the entire day, and wore her out. They both gave my dog so much love and she needed it because we're going through a hard time with a temporary small living situation. They were very respectful of how I have raised my own dog and wanted to be positive that I was okay with having my dog going on a boat ride. My dog got to swim for the first time.

Mike is wonderful with our dogs! He is energetic and playful and uses good judgement. He is dependable and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to hire him. He’s an especially good dog walker and the cats love when he visits.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
