Pet care experience

We’re Cliff and Michiko — lifelong animal lovers and proud parents of a Cavapoochon we’ve cared for over 6 years. After helping our neighbors with their dogs, we realized how much joy it brings us to care for furry friends — so here we are! We both work from home, which means your dog get our care all day and will enjoy a cozy, family environment. We provide walks tailored to your dog’s needs and daily updates so you always know how they’re doing. Clifford has years of experience caring for dogs since childhood, and Michiko has raised a variety of birds (parakeets, lovebirds, cockatiels, and quakers). We’re responsible, attentive, and great communicators — your dog’s happiness and safety come first.

Michiko and Clifford took great care of Melody. They asked a set of questions up front about her needs and were very thorough, which made is clear they took their responsibility seriously. We will definitely have them watch Melody again!

Michiko and Clifford took great care of our pup! First time using them and we were very pleased! We received detailed updates and photos every day which was great! Bear had a very good weekend with lots of activity. Will definitely use them again!
