Your pup’s home away from home
Pet care experience
I’ve had pets my whole life and would love to share some love, our home and some fun with your 4 legged baby and our sweet girl, Dolly. Dolly is a high energy Alaskan Husky who absolutely loves to play with any willing pup. I’m home full time so I can fit your pup into my routine of gardening and home projects, and an occasional field trip to go on errands with me. Your baby will join me and my pup, Dolly, in the garden and during chores, they’ll have fun!
Reviews
We highly recommend Mikey! She cared for our pup Fern for 6 nights while we were out of town. Her house and fully fenced yard are all set up for the dogs. She sent us updates every day so we could see that Fern was having a great time. We will definitely use her again.
Mikey was the most wonderful caregiver for our two dogs on an extended trip we took out of state. I could tell when first meeting her that she had a warm heart for dogs, and through the regular updates she sent I could see that our boys were fully welcomed into her home (including treat time and snuggles on the couch with other family members). She took careful note of our feeding instructions for one of our pups with a sensitive stomach to make sure he had a good stay (which he did). After their time with Mikey, I’m sure that our dogs thought they were the ones getting a vacation! We would happily book the boys again for another stay with Mikey.
We can't say enough good things about Mikey! Our 4 month old German Shepherd, Hannah - who isn't very socialized yet - stayed with her for six days and was able to learn how to be part of a pack. Mikey had several other dogs staying at the same time, which proved to be INVALUABLE in Hannah's growth and socialization. She got TONS of new exposure, exercise, and learned how to make friends. Mikey is super knowledgeable and patient! Hannah was not the easiest guest, but Mikey took it all in stride. She explained the reasons behind Hannah's puppy behaviors and recommended things to do to help her along. She updated us constantly with pics and videos. She was super responsive and graciously answered all of my questions. I am SO appreciative of all her feedback and advice. Her dog Dolly is super patient as well! We couldn't have chosen a better dog sitter for Hannah and I certainly hope Mikey and Dolly will welcome her back in the future!
Mikey is like another mom by now for our two dogs. She is so wonderful with them and makes them feel as though they are in their own house or somewhere loving like grandma house. She had a lot of work to do with one of our dogs (physical therapy) and it was no problem for her. She went out of her way to get them their favorite dog food and a lick mat too. She is the absolute best! My dogs have a blast when they are at her house and I never have to worry about them missing us when we leave them.
