Michelle took amazing care of our pups, and from the many video and photo updates she sent during their stay, it was clear that they were comfortable with her and happy. She was attentive to their routine and took them on fun walks. We were so grateful for the peace of mind that we had while away, that they were with someone we could trust - and we will absolutely board Ernie and Penny with Michelle again.

Just got home from picking up my puppy from Michelle and couldn’t be happier and impressed. Michelle was great with her and shared photos and video of Blu playing. Which put me at ease, since Blu is just a puppy and this was my 1st time leaving her with anyone. And she is so close to me which is also a plus. Will definitely use Michelle again.

Michelle was fantastic! She was able to accommodate us on extremely short notice and saved our vacation. She kept us up to date with pictures and videos of our cats and really kept our minds at ease while we were away. Will gladly book with her again!

Michelle was great watching my standard poodle over a weekend. She kept him active and happy, while keeping us updated with photos/video so we knew how he was doing. I would board with her again, and would recommend her to others!
