Pet care experience

ROVER FULL TIME. Large Property.

I have always enjoyed taking care of animals. Rover has been a great experience over the past few years. I am responsible, reliable and flexible. I have experience with administering most medications. We will take great care of your pet while having fun doing it. Home full-time, with a very flexible schedule, including weekends. I have a large property on a very quiet road. Plenty of room for long walks and exploring. If your dog is a swimmer, I have a pond they can swim in. Bear, our shepherd/husky mix is very friendly and playful. He loves to meet new friends to play with. Hope to meet you and your pet very soon. Thank you.

Rocky clearly enjoyed his stay with his new friends, although happy to see me he clearly was upset leaving Bear, whined half way home and slept like a rock ! Thanks again to Mike and we will look forward to our next stay :)

Great sitter. Dogs are always excited in pictures and happy when I get home. He communicates really well any concerns about the dogs.

Mike is so good with our golden retrievers. We booked him for drop in visits and he was fantastic. We got photos and messages every day letting us know how the boys were doing. We will definitely book him again!

We continue to love using Mike, and Alfred clearly enjoys it every time we pull into Mike's driveway. Mike has been very flexible and understanding through several adjustments in our booking plans, as well as a mistake in booking dates. Alfred comes home and crashes for days, so it's clear he's getting lots of great playtime at Mike's. We look forward to continuing to use Mike.

Schedule

I am home full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your pups the attention they deserve. Lots of potty breaks and play time. Bear loves to play, so exercise is no issue either. We are available 7 days a week for boarding.

Safety, trust & environment

We will treat your dog like our own. We are flexible, every dog is a little different. So, we can do whatever is needed to make your dog feel at home. We have gates in the house if dogs need some alone time or we can easily crate your dog, if that’s what they are comfortable with.
