Michael was fantastic! The communication was solid and we felt our pup was in good hands with him. He provided pics and a safe home that we couldn’t find elsewhere in the town. Thank you!

As ever, Michael is great. Ollie adjusts quickly and well to her temporary residences with Michael and returns happy and healthy.
