Michael was so lovely to work with! He was communicative and kept us updated during Molly’s stay. Molly felt very comfortable and relaxed with him which allows us to feel relaxed while we’re away. Molly is quite old and can be a bit high maintenance but Michael was able to manage all of her medications and needs, sending her back home just as happy and comfortable as she arrived. We would love to work with Michael again.

Michael was truly unbelievable and definitely will be rebooking. He sat our 2 labs and they immediately took to him when we met him prior to booking - rare for our yellow, who sometimes gets a bit nervous around new people, but he was immediately at ease. Michael is clearly a chap who knows dogs and who dogs know is a good, loving person. Michael was also super responsive and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. The dogs were clearly well settled and happy. THANK YOU MICHAEL! Truly. Dare I say, I can't wait to book again. Don't hesitate - this guy is a gem!

Cortina was in fantastic hands with Michael! I appreciated the frequent updates and photos, and she was clearly a happy pup with the other dogs there! I will definitely be booking with Michael again. Thanks for taking great care of Cortina.

Michael did a great job caring for our senior dog and sending us pics and updates. We will definitely return.

warm friendly expert

We could not have asked for a better dog sitter. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such loving, capable hands. Communication was excellent—regular updates, photos, and check-ins that truly reassured us while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. We came home to a happy, well-loved pup, which says everything. I would recommend them without hesitation and will absolutely use them again.

Our dogs seems to love coming to Michael’s! He comes home happy and healthy!

First time using River and it was a good experience. Same with Michael. 👍👍to both of them.

Michael did a great job with our dog Teddy for a longish stay. He sent pics and updates to us regularly and helped Teddy feel at home. We will recommend him and stay again!

Michael took great care of my dog, who can be a handful! I got lots of great updates with pictures. My dog isn’t always comfortable with everyone, but he seemed to feel relaxed and at home with Michael and his son!

Michael took great care of our dog for a couple of nights! He sent lots of updates and photos so we felt comfortable that our dog was in good hands. At the time, our dog needed special medical care and Michael did a great job handling that. He also took our dog on walks which we appreciate! We would definitely book with him again.

It’s the second time we’ve used Michael, and he’s been terrific. He’s super responsive and provides lots of updates. Plus, the dogs always come back happy. Thanks for everything Michael. Ivy and Jake are looking forward to coming back!

Michael was great and took wonderful care of our two labs.

Our dog Hattie had such a nice stay with Michael this week! Good walks, comfy places to rest and lots of love.

Wow, I’m glad we found Mike! First, he was extremely responsive. When we messaged looking for boarding for our dog in about a weeks time, he replied quickly and set up a meet and greet for the next day. He replied quickly to all our messages bout logistics. Second, he has a great combination of attentiveness and no-stress. He asked all the usual questions about our dog, and wanted to get to know her needs. When meeting Bowie for the first time, he read he body language as other dogs went by and even guessed “she isn’t been to this park before, right?” Which was true. Our dog isn’t used to socializing much with other dogs, so we were a little nervous about leaving her with another dog in the house. But Mike was very relaxed and confident about it, without being minimizing. We could tell that he reads dogs carefully and knows his dog well which made us feel comfortable that he could manage the two dogs interactions well. Finally, Bowie clearly had fun! We got some great pictures of her on hikes, lounging in the yard, and napping on the couch - her kind of vacation! My only hesitation in leaving a positive review is that other people might snag the future dates we want for boarding 😁

Hattie had an excellent stay with Michael!

Zoe has stayed with Michael and his dog, Delilah, multiple times. Each time Zoe comes home relaxed. She is always happy to arrive at his house. At first Delilah and Zoe were not sure of each other, but Michael took the time to read Zoe’s cues so that now they can hang together and be relaxed.

I boarded my dog Riley with Michael for 1 day as a test run for a possible longer stay. Michael was wonderful! He kept me informed with how Riley was doing, and sent a video of Riley playing happily with his dog Delilah. I rebooked with Michael for a week long stay. Now I can enjoy my upcoming vacation knowing Riley will be well cared for and happy.

Great first dog sitting day for Zoe (pittie) at Michael’s. I was worried about Zoe and Michael’s dog (Delilah) getting along (Zoe is a follower who always wants to play and Delilah is an older dog), but Michael was able to allay my concerns and it appeared that D and Z did well together. Will update the review after my next dog sitting day at Michael’s this week!

Awesome sitter! Took care of my guy for a few days, sent photos of my guy on walks, playing, sleeping on the couch. Clearly a household of dog lovers who go above and beyond to make sure your pup feels cared for and loved. My guy is a snuggle bug and I got plenty of photos of him snuggling with various members of the family. Made me happy and took the stress out of boarding my dog, also has the best rates locally. Check him out, great guy, family man, dog lover, you wont be disappointed!
