Pet care experience

Hi there, thank you for checking out our profile! We are Michelle and Yu. In 2022, Michelle and I adopted our boy Raffo at the age of 8 weeks and we trained him ourselves. He has grown to be a super sweet and handsome dog and we are super proud of him! We love the positive energies that happy pups brought to us by just watching them having fun and we’d like to devote our time and efforts to make more pups happy!

Second time looking after my dogs. Fantastic experience and they took great care of my senior dog with specials needs. Also got daily updates and videos which was appreciated. Highly recommend.

Our dog Penny had her second, longer stay with Michelle and Yu. We got lots of photos and updates throughout and they were very responsive to any questions. She seemed to have lots of fun playing with their dog. It was really nice to know she was in great hands. I also appreciate their flexibility when we (again!) had to change timing of pick-up and drop off. Thanks again!

Michelle and Yu were wonderful. They sent frequent updates with messages, photos, and videos, and were attentive to Teddy’s needs. They were responsible, conscientious, making sure he had supervised playtime, walks, and lots of care. I appreciated how well they looked after Teddy, and he even made a new doggie friend in Raffo!
