Quality Care for Every Dog

I’ve worked with many dogs over the years and enjoy helping them become well-behaved and reliable. I focus on obedience, leash training, and potty training, using consistency and patience to build good habits. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable while also learning skills they can carry back home.

Michael was great. Our sweet boy clearly was taken care of well. Will definitely book with him in the future!

Michael was wonderful with my dogs! He was calm, patient, and extremely knowledgeable about dog handling, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving them in his care. His home has a large, spacious yard with plenty of room for the dogs to enjoy themselves. Most importantly, my dogs were clearly well cared for and comfortable. Michael and his family welcomed them and made them feel like they were part of the family rather than simply being boarded. I really appreciated the level of care and attention they received and would absolutely trust Michael with my dogs again. Highly recommend!

I will never be able to tell you how much appreciation and gratitude I have for Michael. I was worried at first, being that I have two pit-mix dogs, one high energy and the other high anxiety. He was assuring and knowledgeable about being able to care for both of my babies. He also showed this through pictures and quick responses. Can you believe he is actually a licensed dog trainer? He reassured me and calmed my worries of using the boarding services for the first time. I will be contacting him again and 100% recommend him for all services on Rover! Michael, Thank you again for treating Tito and Canela like your own 🙏🏼🩵 Sincerely, Lorena & Liz

Doggy Day Care • May 29, 2026

Highly recommended! Michael and his family took wonderful care of Mambo. His wife was especially great with him, and Mambo became very attached to her, which says a lot about how comfortable and loved he felt. Their children were also very sweet with him. They have a beautiful, spacious home with a nice yard, making it a great place for dogs. I was very happy with Mambo’s care and will definitely use My again. 100% recommended! 🐾❤️

Schedule

With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent, hands-on care throughout the day. Your dog will get regular exercise, structured routines, and plenty of attention—not long periods alone. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I keep a reliable schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime so your dog feels comfortable and settled.

Safety, trust & environment

As a former firefighter, safety, awareness, and quick response are second nature to me. I live on 2 acres surrounded by 50 acres, giving dogs plenty of space to safely explore while still being fully supervised. I have three dogs of my own and understand pack dynamics, behavior, and structure. Whether your dog needs crate training, obedience reinforcement, or just a calm, secure environment, I tailor care to fit their needs and keep them safe, exercised, and stress-free.
