Information Michele R. would like to know about your pet

We do require your dog to have current vaccinations and be friendly with other dogs. We have seperate areas for the smaller dogs. The big dogs are welcome to enjoy the 2 acres of land or come inside and rest on numerous dog beds.

A typical day

We will keep your dog on his/her feeding schedule and can even keep up their training while your are gone. We like to allow the dogs to have access to the 2 acre property to play and rest at their leisure. Dogs will also have a large indoor room for nights and rainy days... Drop off after 7:30 am and pick up before 7:30pm can make arrangements if necessary.

Your Own 2 Acre Private Dog Park

Pet care experience

I have been raising and training dogs for 30+ years. I have trained all breeds of dogs and I actively show all of my dogs (Labrador Retrievers and Yorkshire Terriers) in AKC shows as well as hunt trials. I grew up on a farm showing horses. I have lots of veterinarian experience in my background and love all types of animals. We have a great 2 acre fenced property and a beautiful indoor 1100 sq foot, climate controlled, fully finished room just for the dogs. We also have a dedicated indoor/outdoor space for small breed dogs. We can accommodate everything from a few hours of daycare too long term stays. The dogs have lots of entertainment here and get plenty of exercise playing with friends.

My girls love Michele’s and so do I! I don’t like to take them anywhere else, as I trust they get taken care of and loved at Michele’s!
