Michael is a caring and attentive sitter. Sent me daily updates. I would highly recommend him to look after your fur babies.

Michael and family were flexible with schedule for drop off. Prince looked like he had great time when we picked up.

We left our 11 yr old Choc Lab - Zuzu with Michael and his family for a 4-day trip, and I was very happy to see continuous updates from them. Zuzu was pretty comfortable with them; they helped her calm down when she was anxious and made it easy for her, and that's all I wanted. We will definitely be using them for our future trips. Thank you guys so much!

Pets

A typical day

Max would love to have have your buddy over for a fun filled night or weekend to play till his/her heart is content! We have a big backyard to run in/play fetch in. Evening times are relaxing and lazy. We typically lounge around the house getting caught up on Netflix. During weekend days we walk down to the lake or hit the walking trails in Little Elm.
