Cat & Dog Sitter, Flexible Schedule

Pet care experience

Since I got my first dog at 13, I've taken responsibility for training, walking, feeding, and bathing my own pets and those of family and friends. I also have experience with caring for high-anxiety dogs.

Thanks for taking care of our GSP and Vizsla this past weekend, Mikey! Communicating with Mikey was great and the house was just as we’d left it. Mikey sent photos to check in and was very considerate asking any questions that hadn’t been clarified in the info we’d sent over. We recommend working with Mikey!

We were gone for 3 weeks and I never worried! I received daily updates and pictures! My cat and dog always looked so happy which I was grateful for! The house was clean and in order when we got back. Very happy with Mikey!!!

Mikey was a great sitter for my cat, with regular updates and clear communication. The apartment was left clean, which was great to come home to after a long trip. I would definitely work with Mikey again!

Mikey was so great!!!! I left for a trip for about a week and Mikey stayed at my place with my cat and everything went very smoothly. I came back to a happy, healthy cat and a clean apartment :) Mikey is very responsible and responsive and it was so nice to be able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. I highly recommend Mikey :)

Safety, trust & environment

I love having fun playing with pets and going on walks, but to ensure their safety and minimize chaos I make good use of training methods and always keep high-value treats on me for extra motivation. I never let dogs off-leash except in designated areas.

Information Mikey K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, dietary restrictions, or known triggers for anxiety, barking, and similar behaviors. Letting me know what amount of training they've received is also appreciated.

A typical day

I love taking pets to explore parks and green spaces in the area, and finding games to play that are both physically and mentally stimulating for them!
