Melissa and Michael took such great care of Joey. They treated him and loved him as if he was their own, and in every picture they sent I could tell how happy he was. Will definitely be boarding with them again. I highly recommend them!

Did a great job communicating with us everyday, my dog was obviously loved like a member of their own family while she stayed with Michael and Melissa.
