About Michael

28 male, young professional based in Sydney, i'm an introverted homebody who's passionate about studying, fitness, personal growth, and of course, animals!

An avid animal lover of all shapes and sizes, with countless years of experience with house, animal and baby sitting since the age of 16.

My current goal is to save for a deposit, pay off my HECS, and to one day have a an animal companion of my own! 

I love to provide frequent updates to owners, mostly in the form of photos, videos, and short text stories on the adventures of your animals, where applicable. 

I have a well-rounded experience with cats, dogs, and farm animals of many shapes, sizes and special needs including but not limited to diabetic (injection), vision impaired, surgical recoveries, and strict diets.

I have an abundance of patience with animals, and don't mind getting my hands dirty when required. 

Respectful of others privacy, property and security, my aim is to not create any extra work, so I maintain a tidy household as though I was never there. 

I live in Sydney, and will gladly come to you for a meet and greet, or a phone call, prior to any commitments.

As a general practice I take my own, and by extension your, personal information and physical security very seriously, so I only take and share photos when vetted by the owners, and with written permission.

House and security conscious, I scrupulously double-check locks on doors, windows and other points of egress.

Could not be happier. From first communication to meet and greet to coming and staying for the weekend to leaving our home cleaner than we left it we couldn’t recommend Michael higher! He had his work cut out with our new puppy and two cats and we felt so comfortable with Michael looking after them and they were on great form when we got home. Thank you Michael

House Sitting

Michael recently looked after our home and our rescue cat Willow for a week; we were quite nervous as it was our first time leaving her for a long period. Michael was very responsive prior to his stay, and during, sending us regular photos of our girl. We were extremely happy with the way he looked after Willow and our place. Everything was very clean and tidy and Willow had obviously been given lots of attention. We would definitely book Michael again.
