Information Michael P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any food allergies your pet may have and whether or not they are allowed to have treats during their stay. Please let me know if your dog is other dog friendly or prefers their personal space to make your dog as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

I love to give dogs mental and physical exercise/ stimulation and give a proper balance of play-time and down time for best mental while being for their stay, as not having their pet parent can be hard for some pups!

Pets

I will treat your pet like family

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and types. Our family competes in dog sports so I have a passion for dogs. I can be counted on to take the best care of your furry friend. Treating your dog as our own to us means as soon as your pup walks through our door they are officially a part of the pack! Your dog will be allowed on our furniture, getting so many pets, plenty of playtime alongside daily walks, all things possible for your pet to feel more at home. Know how your pet is doing with multiple pictures and videos of your pet daily, quick responses to text, and multiple updates daily on your pet throughout their stay.

We left our baby boy for the first time in 4 years and Mike truly understood our emotions. He is really nice and gave Mylo a lot of love and care. Thank you so much for taking care of him. Definitely going back to him again
