I met Micheal last Sept when I adopted my dog from a shelter, over the next few weeks several behavioral issues started to present themselves, I consulted with Micheal and he patiently explained what could be going on with my dog and gave me some suggestions and practical solutions, it is now 10 months later and things have much improved. I would highly recommend Micheal’s knowledge and care for animals big or small.

Mike is exceptional with animals. He has years of experience caring for and working with dogs, cats, and other pets. He is very reliable and I have trusted him with my own animals in the past. I know that if I asked Mike to help me with my animals, they would be in good hands.

Mike has taken care of several of my animals over the last 10-12 years. He is meticulous and does not ever cut corners, especially when it comes to animals in his care. Mike is also an experienced veterinary technician and knows when something is amiss. Additionally, he is a very talented dog (and horse) trainer and has improved the relationships I have with my pets. I would not hesitate to leave my pets in his care. There is no one I trust more to look after them.

Schedule

My days are structured around the care of your dog. My work is not just a job, but a way of life. In addition to dog boarding, I am also fully involved in dog training as well. With that being said, my days are carefully orchestrated so that I can match the individual needs of every dog that is in my care. Boarding dogs will be integrated into my daily schedule so they have a fulling experience throughout the day where they are offered affection, play, and rest.
