Pet care experience

Currently own two elderly huskies that were rescued from an abusive home. Have cared for retired police K9 German Shepard for several years. Have always had large dogs and love to dog sit for friends

Great experience. Michael is patient and very knowledgeable. Our dog had a wonderful weekend playing with his two huskies. She'll definitely go back to play when we are out of town.

Minnie had a safe, fun, comfortable stay at Michael's, was relaxed and happy when we picked her up. Michael responded quickly and stayed in touch. We appreciated his flexibility and care and definitely want to return.

Just the usual items. Food aggression, dietary limits, chewing tendencies, and separation anxiety. I am super flexible with these things so do not be shy about your dogs needs!
