Boarding • Jan 29, 2026

Michael is great with Ada and we will continue to come back. We were able to make a scheduling conflict work and I appreciated the frequent updates, pictures + videos, and more importantly Ada has a good time while she’s there. Thanks again, Michael!

Doggy Day Care • Jan 05, 2026

Michael was great. He took Ada out for multiple walks, let her roam inside and out, and was very attentive the whole day with multiple updates. We are very grateful for him and will be returning.

Mike has been pet sitting for us for many years and we whole heartedly trust him with our fur babies! During Hurricane Harvey we were displaced due to a flooded home and he opened up his home to our kitty and cared for her since cats were not allowed where we were staying. Mike’s love for animals shines bright and he truly understands their behaviors and speaks their language. When we are traveling, we are comforted by the fact that our fur babies are in good hands and Mike is diligent with communication and shares pictures and videos of the fun they have with him.

Mike is absolutely extraordinary! He is a dog lover that will treat your pet just like his own. My dogs have never been happier or more excited for walks. Mike is reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about every animal. His calm, joyful energy puts my pups at ease, and we trust him completely. We are super grateful for the exceptional care he provides! He makes my workday so much easier, knowing that my boys are having fun on walks, and not cooped up in the house all day while I’m away.
