Dash feels right at home with Michael and is basically his shadow. Would recommend Michael any day as he gives me a peace of mind when I am away.

Mike has taken care of my mini-schnauzer many times and does a great job each time. Also have referred him to fellow friends in need of pet care whether its just walking or feeding or boarding or all of the above. I would definitely recommend him as well for you.

Michael has been watching my dog for 5+ years now and has built a strong relationship with my dog to the point where I feel more comfortable leaving my dog with Michael than I do with anyone else. Michael sends pictures and videos and will also share things about my dog to help keep me at a peace of mind. I would recommend Michael to anyone.

Let me know about special dietary or medicine needs ahead of time. Dogs that bark repeatedly I am not able to take in due to 4 cats at my home. I am however happy to come to your place to stay with any dog.
