About Michael

Experience: 3 yrs

Hey, I've been taking care of kids and animals since I was a teenager. My first animal was with my first dog Tanner, an american foxhound mix. He's my good boy, and my inspiration and motivation to do better and be better. With him around I no longer sleep in on weekends. I walk him everyday and will get a minimum of 15k steps a day. I also work as a special needs paraprofessional at a local elementary school. That is my main career and I will be going on my 5th year there and love it. My parents own 2 dogs over 50lbs each that I walk with my dog tanner. Ive walked all 3 at a time and have gone on long walks that have lasted up to 2 hours. I have walked multiple dogs at a time big and small. I would love an opportunity to get to know your pet, and contact me for a schedule that works with us both!

Michael is Callie's (our dog), favorite person in the whole world. We have to spell his name in front of her at times. He has been walking Callie for the past two years. They go for an hour at a time, 2-3 days a week. Callie is so full of energy and loves her walks with Michael. You can definitely trust him. He loves Callie as his own pretty much at this point.
