Michael and Harri

Hello, we are experienced carers who have three beautiful cats that rule our home in Espoo (02620) for the last 12 years 🐈🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛.In total, we have around 20+ years owning pets and 3 years caring for them on Pawshake. About us: Michael and Harri are married and have been together for 12 years, with no children. We both enjoy art, music, cooking, nature and travel.

CATS. Our puuurfect services mostly include cat visits (1 x or 2 x a day) or over-night home-boarding. 🐈🐈‍⬛🛏. We make sure that the usual obvious basic details such as cleaning litter boxes, feeding, watering, brushing and being with them for 15-60 minutes to play or sit depending on their character/stress level and interaction are performed to a high standard that you expect. We are very clean and tidy people. As part of our fee we will do light cleaning, watering house plants, light gardening duties, laundry (bed sheets if we stay overnight) and vacuuming, so you come back to a clean home, which is what everyone wants after a trip away ❤🏠🧽🧹🌱.We can also administer diabetic insulin 💉 💊 and other medication orally as we have a diabetic cat ourselves.

DOGS. As much as we are cat people 🦹‍♂️ We also care for dogs 🐕🐕‍🦺🐩. Michael grew up with dogs during his childhood. Mixed cat/dog households are no problem based on our preferences. 🚨 We can only accept dogs who have been trained on a leash to a satisfactory level by their owners. If your dog pulls excessively on the lead and is untrained, we are unfortunately unable to walk them. We accept only one dog per walk. 

DOG BOARDING AND DAYCARE. Unfortunately because we have our own pets we cannot take any outside pets into our home as this may cause stress to our cats. 

OTHER ANIMALS. In addition, we also have experience looking after rabbits, tortoises, rats, hamsters, birds🐀🐢 🐇🐤 and guinea pigs as well as tropical fish🐟. So contact if your pet is more unusual also.

AND...Michael can speak conversational Finnish so please drop a message in Finnish also if you want to. Harri speaks Finnish, English and some Spanish 🇫🇮🇬🇧 🇪🇸

We will give you a stress free, hassle free, easy, flexible and caring service to you and your pets. 🐈‍⬛🐕🐅🦔🦜🦛🐫🐘🦌🦩.We look forward to hearing from you and let's meet to arrange a face to face introductory meeting! 🏁👍

*I will always communicate with you throughout the trip if you need updates/reports and photos etc via pawshake. 📸

*A booking is only guaranteed if it is paid for through pawshake ahead of time/ or on-time. This is normally after we have a brief introductory meeting at your residence.

*Repeat customers do not need to have another introductory meeting with us, unless something has changed with your pets that we need to know about. We are happy to go free of charge to meet up with your pets again to know any changes. 

*If you book us for overnight stays we will arrive to your house that day at the time you prefer, we vaccate your house in the morning (no later than 12:00 unless otherwise stated). During our stay we will spend as much time with your pet as we can and our main focus is on your pets. Please allow for some gaps where work may be involved etc and normal short times outside of the house if needed.

*We can also communicate with you via WhatsApp when the caring is taking place if its easier for you.
