Hi! I'm Mike, an American who moved from New York to Amsterdam and now lives in Oud-Zuid. I've had dogs and cats my entire life. My Schnoodle, Alfie, was my constant companion until he recently passed away, and these days my Bombay cat, Mimi, runs the household. I've also hired walkers and sitters many times myself, so I know what owners want: someone who shows up on time, treats their dog as an individual, and keeps them in the loop.

What I offer

• Dog walks: As long or as short as your dog wants: Whether that's a quick 20-minute break or a longer wander. I go at your dog's pace.
• Home visits: I can stop by to feed, let your dog out, and give some company and play. [I'm also happy to send photos and messages so you know all is well.]

Availability: Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, between 9 am and 5 pm. If you'd like a regular weekly slot, I'm glad to make it a routine.

Good to know: I'm reliable and take the responsibility seriously. I'm comfortable with small, medium, and larger dogs, but very large breeds aren't the right match for me. I'm new to Pawshake, but not to caring for animals, and I'd love to meet you and your dog first so we're all comfortable before the first walk.

Feel free to send me a message with your dog's name, age, and routine, and we can find a time that works.
