Michael loves and cares for our large dog as though he is own, while also respecting all our family's quirky requests. When I pick up our dog its clear he's bonded well with Michael, and is in excellent shape physically and emotionally. Michael's devotion and integrity are a winning combination for premium animal care. I go on vacation and sleep like a baby knowing all is well...and knowing Michael will consult with me and/or our vet if anything is out of the ordinary. Michael will delight you and your fur baby. Always my first person to ask.
