Mike was so great with Copper and sent us some great videos and pictures! We could tell he really tried to make Copper feel comfortable even though he was a little nervous. Definitely will use Mike again in the future! Highly recommend!

Mike is the kind of guy that gets along with anything that breathes. He knows how to play well with dogs and he’s able set appropriate boundaries when needed. He’s experienced and knowledgeable on how dog’s minds work. He’s very punctual on feeding and walking times. He’s watched Rex (my pitbull) a few times now and he’s has grown to really love Mike! Rex does get excited when anybody walks in my house but when Mike walks in, there’s always a couple extra layers of excitement that come out in Rex.

Safety, trust & environment

I thoroughly enjoy the outdoors and frequent the local forest preserves in the area numerous times a week. When I was a dog owner, routine walks and interactions with people / other dogs were important. Dogs need attention and exercise, I try to make them as happy as they make us!
