Experienced and Reliable Dog Care
Pet care experience
I am a retired elementary school principal and a life-long dog owner. Spending my days and nights in the company of dogs is a labor of love. I know how stressful it is to leave one's dog in the care of others, and I strive to provide my guests with the level of care and attention that I hope my dogs would be provided in my absence. My home is 100% dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and have dog-door unlimited access to a fenced in back yard and deck area. I am pleased to host dogs Up to 40 lbs.. This requirement may be waived for exceptionlly gentle larger dogs. Guest dogs must get along well with other dogs. I have a chihuahua and cannot host aggressive dogs. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Reviews
Always great!
We have used Michael several times while we have been away and our dog has enjoyed her stay each time.
Michael is always great
Sandy had a great time at Michael’s house. He let us know how she was doing while we were away and at pickup gave us a full update on her stay. Great experience

Information Michael C. would like to know about your pet
I am most concerned with a dog's size and temperament. My home is an ideal environment for non-aggressive dogs under 40 lbs. A meeting is required before all first-time bookings Proof of rabies vaccination and Bordetella vaccination are required. Side note: I couldn’t figure out how to remove the Cat Care Option that is listed under dog boarding on my profile. Since I couldn’t remove it, I raised the price to $150 in hopes that no one will hire me to watch a cat. If you’re a cat owner and you’re reading my profile, please do not hire me to watch your cat. I’m a dog person and you definitely shouldn’t pay $150 to have me watch your cat.
A typical day
Our daily walks include visits to the Leonardo Marina and the Henry Hudson Trail.
