Meet The Team
Mike Pitts
Owner, Certified Dog Trainer – ABCDT
Meet Mike!
Meet Mike, the founder of The Doggie Concierge, one of Cleveland’s most rapidly expanding dog walking businesses. After serving as a Youth and Family Pastor in various locations across the United States for a span of 15 years, Mike elected to relocate his family back to Ohio for a brief respite. However, he subsequently found vocation in an entirely new field. After working part-time in a grooming salon, Mike recognized a shortage of pet care enterprises with integrity and professionalism. In 2017, he established The Doggie Concierge with a vision of providing customized pet care services distinguished by the highest levels of integrity and professionalism. Mike’s enthusiasm for his work is contagious, and he derives immense satisfaction from ensuring that your cherished furry family members receive only the most exceptional care. With Mike and The Doggie Concierge, you can rest assured that your pets are in safe and nurturing hands.
Mike is a graduate of the Animal Behavior College’s Certified Dog Training program. He is a Canine Good Citizen and a Temperament Test Evaluator for the American Kennel Club (AKC). Additionally, he’s an active member of various professional organizations, including the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT), Dunbar Academy of Top Dogs, International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), The Pet Professional Guild (PPG), International Boarding & Pet Services Association (IBPSA), Pet Sitters International (PSI), and the American Kennel Club (AKC).
Mike resides in North Ridgeville along with his wife of 14 years, teenage son, and two tween daughters. They are proud owners of four dogs: an international rescue pup from Istanbul, Turkey, who is a mix of Anatolian Shepherd and Golden Retriever, and a grumble of three Pugs. Two of the Pugs are special needs rescue pups from Safe Harbor Animal Rescue. One of them has a cleft palate, while the other is an amputee.

PEACE OF MIND
We decided early on to staff with W2 employees in an industry of independent contractors. Because we come into contact with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and needs, we needed to be able to train and equip our staff fully. Each employee is certified in Pet CPR & First Aid and has completed several hours in the field alongside a Dog Trainer to learn valuable leash skills and understand and manage basic dog behavior. Beyond training, we vet each employee, background check them, and cover them with a dishonesty bond and liability insurance to give our clients ultimate peace of mind. We support our staff with real-time field support, from technical app help to dog behavior. Though faces may change, quality of care and client experience will not. That is our commitment to you.
- Mike, Owner of The Doggie Concierge
