JoJo settled in nicely with Michael. He gave her lots of attention. I felt comfortable knowing that Michael was taking care of her.

Michael had been wonderful and he has helped us out with our two dogs several times. He communicates well and my dogs have been so happy having him stay with them while we are gone. Would recommend him to take care of your pets.

Michael has provided excellent care for our dog Dexter and our granddog Piper. He’s very reliable, punctual, and flexible with a high awareness to the needs of our dog. Michael’s calm demeanor was a perfect match and he trained my little high energy Coton de Tulear. I highly recommend Michael for services and his genuine care.
