Highlights
Pet care experience
Michael & Joanna
Hi! We’re Michael and Joanna—best friends and lifelong dog lovers offering in-home boarding and daycare from our home. We specialize in caring for small dogs, especially those with separation anxiety who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. Michael has over 25 years of personal dog ownership experience, and Joanna brings 20 years of professional boarding experience. Together, we provide a calm, loving environment that helps dogs feel safe and at ease while their owners are away. We can also help with socialization and crate training as part of our daily routine. Every dog in our care is treated like family, with plenty of one-on-one attention and regular updates for pet parents. References are available upon request—we’d love to care for your pup!

Goose loves Joanna! She always takes such great care of him and sends daily updates/pics. We always know he’ll be in good hands when we drop him off, which helps ease our anxieties when we go on vacations. Goose is looking forward to his next stay with Joanna and Michael!
Michael and Joanna took exceptional care of Ike. He is so calm and well-adjusted. I would definitely use them again!
Fantastic every step of the way - dogs loved it :) Will be booking again!
Joanna sent pics daily and checked in and coco really enjoyed his time! Lots of plays and snuggles. It was cute that they sent him home with a little gift. For sure will rebook in future! Thank you!!
Michael and Joanna were amazing sitters, They were good at communicating, sent pictures and took great care of my dog. definitely recommend them!
Michael and Joanna took excellent care of our pets while we were on vacation. Our dog Georgie has a special diet and needs two insulin shots a day, and they handled his feeding and meds routine exactly as we hoped. He also got plenty of much‑needed canine companionship during his stay, which helps keep up his energy as a senior pooch. Our cat Sheba had her own comfortable quarters, and everything was well-organized with the pets’ comfort in mind. They also sent regular pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. Great sitters and a great Rover experience all around!

Safety, trust & environment
I have three chi-weenies that enjoy a fenced yard, front and back. If needed, I can easily and comfortably crate your pups but they are welcome to be next to me on the sofa or wherever.
