Pet care experience
Why are my rates expensive? I'm an expert. I am safe. You can trust me. I have two bachelors of science from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo - One in Animal Science (pre-vet) with an Equine Minor, and my other in Ag Business with a Marketing Minor. We have a huge yard for your pet to play in as well as a fresh grassy lawn. I now show my Labrador on the AKC Circuit so I'm quite versed on training, puppies, manners, and general animal well being. My dog has her Advanced Trick Title (30+ tricks I've taught her) from the AKC as well as her Canine Good Citizen. She's also just started dock diving. My Labrador is a social media star - she recently had a video go viral with 1.5M views - follow her at LagunaLabradors. I work from home so the dogs are always around getting full attention and excellent care. Although the yard is large - it's not fenced so your dog must know recall, or I will take them out on a leash to keep them safe. My dog is a great teacher and example for other dogs to learn from. If you pet is trained well they're more than welcome to run around the yard and explore.
Reviews
Chowder had the best time ever! Michael is an excellent pet sitter! You are leaving your four legged children are in good hands!!
Michael is an exceptional pet-sitter. He is experienced in boarding, training and caring for a variety of animals. His love of animals is apparent when you meet him and his beautiful chocolate lab. I would definitely recommend Michael and know my pet is safe and happy in his care.
Michael is fantastic, he keeps my dog Beau fairly often and Beau loves staying with him. His dog also gets along well with Beau, a very dog friendly home. Would highly recommend Michael .
Michael is the BEST! I would say he’s beyond a dog whisperer. My golden Sammy LOVED being with Michael And his sweet dog Nina. I absolutely recommend Him to anyone as he will give such love and entertainment For your pet. Worth every dime! Thank you Michael!!! You’re one of a kind ♥️

A typical day
We have a 80lb Labrador that loves all dogs. She loves to give kisses and is perfectly trained. She is great with any size dog so don't worry about her size. Frenchies are her favorite. She just had a litter of 8 puppies and we kept a daughter, so now we have a mini me as well.
