Patient and caring animal lover. Expert at understanding dogs’ and cats' body language. Comfortable caring for all breeds, sizes, and ages. Experienced with safeguarding dogs and the people around them during walks. Able to properly handle and dispose of pets’ waste. Trained in emergency medicine for humans (certified EMT), however my skill and knowledge can help to recognize symptoms of sickness, unusual behavior, physical injuries, probable disease and emergencies in pets. Skilled at administering pets’ medications orally or intramuscularly (shots). Trained my own dogs and know how to use positive training techniques during walks.
Reviews
Mike is a huge animal lover, all shapes, sizes, breeds, and personalities! I have seen him connect with a multitude of animals. He is very in shape and he should have no problem with handling larger dogs or walking longer distances. He is extremely responsible and very calm and collected under pressure. He is a reliable and committed person in everything that he does.

I am unable to provide pet services at my home as I have a Golden Retriever that has a hard time getting along with others. For house sitting services I charge $50 per day. Included in my services are two 30 minute walks, staying the night with your pet, from 730pm to 7am. If you would like additional services we can negotiate prices for add ons.
Information Mike S. would like to know about your pet
Does your pet get along with other animals? Do they have any special behavioral or health needs?
A typical day
I can wash and groom your dog for an additional fee. I love being outdoors and going on walks. Your instructions for care and training of your beloved pet will be honored and respected while you are away.

Availability
I work as a National Park Service Wilderness Ranger in California for the months of May-September. During my off-season in the winter, I am unemployed so I have plenty of time to play with your animals. As an employee of the Federal Government, I must pass an extensive background check each year. I am reliable, trustworthy and very passionate about animals.
