Pickles was taken care of so well while I was away! He wasn’t stressed, he ate, and seemed genuinely happy when I picked him up. Mike and his wife are such lovely people and super accommodating. Great experience!

Osa enjoyed her stay! It was a relief knowing she was in great hands and not having to worry about her while I was away for 3 weeks. Thank you so much!

Hazel loved her stay with Mike! She was well taken care of and I got updates everyday. I felt at ease knowing Hazel was in good hands when I was out of town.

Cooper had a great time with Mike. We left him for a week and he left an honest review of how it was watching our dog and I really appreciate the report card he gave. I would definitely book with Mike again if given the opportunity
