Experienced pet lover w/ backyard

Pet care experience

My wife and I love taking dogs on errands and having them close. We like to give the dog a job to feel like they belong, like having them wear a backpack, so they feel part of the pack/family. We offer a lot more than the typical boarding place as we integrate and train your dog into our family.

Yuki had an amazing stay with Michael and his wife! They were both super responsive to communications and sent photos throughout the stay. They took Yuki on many long walks and great hikes. We'd definitely leave Yuki with them again :).

Michael and his wife Maike, are expert dog caregivers. They were nice enough to accommodate Mira for 4 days over the Christmas holiday, including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. They started a group text with my husband and I, sending photos and video updates daily so we didn't miss our own pup too much. They took her out multiple times a day on amazing adventures to the beach, to parks, and on hikes. I am sure Mira had a much better vacation with Michael and his wife than he would have at home with us! Thank you so much, Michael. We look forward to dropping Mira off with you in the future!

My pup Riley had a great stay with Michael and his wife. They kept us updated with photos and videos of Riley every day when we were traveling, which helped put us at ease. It looked like Riley was living his best life, going on hikes, playing with his toys, and going to the beach. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog with Michael and we would definitely book him again!

Information Michael R. would like to know about your pet

It’d be good to know of past issues to avoid putting the animal through the same trauma. Anything you feel is pertinent information, I’d like to know to provide a better experience for everyone.

A typical day

We live near a park with a beach and a fenced-in mountain hike. I’d take your pet with me to the beach or hill hike and let them swim and run and have fun. We will give your dog a run for its money :) I run errands and would take the pup with me too!
