Michelle did a wonderful job taking care of our mini-poodle, who I think felt right at home with Michelle and her family! Thanks again!

Michelle was amazing with Grady. I was nervous leaving him, but she sent regular texts and photos letting me know how he was doing. She went above and beyond to keep him happy, groomed, and loved! I was able to enjoy me trip knowing he was in good hands.
