Going on vacation or planning a long weekend away and need a loving home for your dog? You’re in the right place! My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, happy, and right at home while you're away. Hi! My name is Michelle, and I have been caring for dogs for over 17 years as a dog walker, sitter, and boarding host. I know how important it is to trust someone with your “fur kids.” When your dog stays with us, they become part of the family. They’ll enjoy plenty of love, attention, playtime, and yes… even some couch time! I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, home-style environment where dogs can relax and enjoy their stay. My goal is to give every dog a place they are excited to come back to again and again. What your dog can expect during their stay:• A safe, loving home environment• Plenty of playtime and attention• Comfortable indoor rest areas• Small group care and supervision• Photo updates for pet parents• Medication administration if needed I grew up in a house full of furry friends. Looking back, it was practically a mini zoo! My family raised Irish Setters, and there was even a time we had a litter of 12 beautiful “reds.” Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and they still are today. I’m a stay-at-home mom and dog host, which means I’m home most of the day with the dogs. My husband and I have five children (ages 33 to 13), so it’s definitely a lively household! My kids love helping give our visiting pups extra attention and affection. We currently have two dogs of our own:• River (Golden Retriever)• Sage (Wirehaired Griffon) We also have one dog-friendly cat, Malie. Our home is very used to welcoming visiting dogs, and it makes every day fun and exciting.

Ratings and reviews
This was my fur babies first time being boarded. I’m really happy with all of Michelle’s updates of Georgia. It gave me a peace of mind during vacation that she was being taken care of with lots of love. Georgia will be back 😌🫶🏽
Michelle provided exceptional care for my dogs, and after two weeks, they appear content and returned home without any complications.
Michelle communicated well and gave frequent updates, Goose seemed happy and looked like he made a lot of friends! It was our first time leaving our dog goose overnight with anyone and the longest we’ve been away, Michelle helped with our anxiety as first time dog parents and gave honest updates about goose adjusting. We definitely will use her boarding services and daycare again!!
Michelle did a fantastic job with the dogs. They seemed really happy, she sent lots of pictures so we were assured they were having fun. Will definitely be calling her again. Grisel
Thanks so much for watching Goose! It seemed like he had a very eventful day because now he's asleep!
Cant type alot right now, in pain from major surgery. Let me just reiterate the hundreds of compliments on Rover in Michelle's reviews. I cant say enough about how lucky we were to find her. I missed maggie so much and was in excruciating pain for weeks but I knew all along that maggie couldn't be in a better place with Michelle. What a gift she's got with animals!!!!

Schedule
I’m a stay-at-home mom and dedicated dog care provider, and caring for my pup clients is truly my full-time job—and something I absolutely love! My goal is to give every dog a fun, safe, and comfortable place where they feel right at home while their owners are away. Around here it’s a dog party 100% of the time! Your pup will enjoy plenty of playtime, socialization, and lots of family attention during their stay. I love giving dogs their own little “stay-vacay”, where they can relax, play, and be treated like part of the family.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pup as if they were my own. I do my best to follow their normal daily routine so they feel comfortable and right at home while they’re with me. Whether that means playtime, quiet rest time, or plenty of cuddles, I try to keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to. While they are here, they will also enjoy time socializing and playing with their furry friends. Around here it’s usually a bit of a dog party, with lots of love, attention, and family time. I am home much of the day, which allows me to supervise the dogs closely and make sure everyone stays safe, happy, and comfortable. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m also happy to help with small extras like watering plants, bringing in the mail, or taking out the trash—at no additional cost. My goal is for your pup to feel safe, loved, and have a wonderful little “vacay” of their own while you’re away.

A typical day
We live in Glendora near the foothills in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic. Our home sits at the end of a cul-de-sac, which gives the dogs a safe and calm environment Your pup will enjoy plenty of playtime, social time with their furry friends, and lots of love and attention throughout the day.
