Pet care experience

Licensed, 5 Star Pet Care!

We would love to be able to spoil your pet in our large, cool, comfortable home. We are home during the day, evenings, and weekends. We have a small, sweet, loveable pug; Chunky. He can only be described as indifferent to other dogs..lol.. he likes to be around them, but does not engage with them much, he is very good and never aggressive. We are all vaccinated! Our home has cameras available so we can keep an eye on your babies at all times. We also have a fenced yard, doggie door, and a lot of experience. Your pet will be happy and healthy in our care. We try to accommodate your pet the way you do at home so as to not break routines or cause unnecessary stress. We have plenty of clean toys and sleeping areas for your favorite friend. We can accommodate most every request to ensure your pet has a home away from home that they will be happy to come back to.

Mike has watched my dog Leo many times, and I am always 100% happy with their care! Leo always comes back happy and tired and I know they play with him/take care of him like he’s their own.

Your babies are in great hands with Mike! He is very accommodating and treats your pets with compassion and care. I received daily updates, and was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dogs were safe.

We’ve tried many pet sitters in the area, but Mike is the best! I have left my dog Leo with them many times for long vacations. They always send great photos/updates, and I can tell they really care about Leo. If you’re trying to find a pet sitter, I would definitely choose Mike!

Mike was absolutely amazing! Our 2 senior beagles stayed with him while we were out of the country for 2 1/2 weeks and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We received daily updates and pictures and it was such a huge relief knowing that they were being cared for and loved on so much while we were gone. Mike had watched them before but this was the longest we've ever left them and without hesitation we will leave them again. I honestly cannot thank them enough or think of anywhere else I would want the entrust their care to.

Mike was amazing, this was our first time leaving one of our dogs with anyone, Mike sent pics of our old man throughout his stay and communicated with us and it was wonderful knowing he was in such good hands.

This is my second time having Mike watch my fur baby! He is so fast at replying and I love all the little updates and pictures he sends me. He makes my Oenelope feel like she is at home with him and that makes me so happy. Not to mention I always get my baby back smelling so fresh and clean! I will only ever use Mike for all future needs!
