“Tucker had a wonderful day with Briana while we enjoyed Mackinaw Island! We are grateful to have found someone to take good care of him for the day. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and did all the things he loves to do. He had undivided attention as there were no other pets there at that time. We hope to visit again next year! Thank you Briana!”


“Dorothy was wonderful with Alfie. She was kind, responsive, and took excellent care of him. He transitioned well with her and then back with us. We would love to use her again when we are back in the area!”


“Sally is great with dogs and has a lovely area to walk them! My dogs are rarely away from me and they were well taken care of. Sally was flexible with my pick up time after my plane was delayed. I highly recommend her.”


“Ashley was fantastic and went above and beyond for my boarding reservation! She kept me updated with pictures throughout and was sensitive to any special needs or circumstances. Highly recommended. I plan to rebook with Ashley when I need a boarder up north again soon!”


“I had to find a dog sitter short notice for a work trip. Tayler was accommodating with setting up a meet and greet and with the dates I needed care. Tayler and her family took such great care of my two furbabies. She sent me lots of pictures of them smiling and being loved on. I highly recommend Tayler to take care of your dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”


“Kendra was not only professional but also amazing with our dog. We were visiting the area from out of town and stayed in a house that we knew didn’t allow pets so we chose to have her help us out - I’m so happy we found her because she treated our dog like one of our own and updated us often. Drop off and pickup was easy and she worked with us to make it convenient for us. We wish we lived closer because we would use her every time.”


“Peter took great care of our dog. We were very comfortable leaving her for 3 days, which we don't do very often. Peter made sure Elsie was exercised fed and warm! Also was flexible with our changing schedule.”


“My family had Erica watch our puppy Oliver while we went on vacation. She did an absolutely amazing job with him. He got to play with her two dogs and go on lots of walks during the day. Unexpectedly she found a tick on him and took him into the vet to get him checked out. She went above and beyond to make sure Oliver had a fun and safe time. My dad was worried sick about leaving his puppy with a stranger, but Erica sent him multiple pictures throughout the day, and I think that's the only reason we didn't turn back for Oliver. I would recommend Erica to anyone that needs their dog to be boarded for any length of time and we will be booking her again.”


About: Animals love me for my calm, loving demeanor. I am a good pack leader and provide a safe and fun place for your fur baby while your away. I am retired with plenty of time on my hands. It gets lonely at times so I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats. I have a large yard with room to roam, sniff and play away from others and a large kennel. You can trust that I will take just as good of care of your fur babies as I do my own.

“We are st thankful that we found Jennifer! Our dog Zac was very comfortable with her and his new buddy, Willow. Jennifer was so accommodating to all of Zac’s habits and routines and she sent texts and photo updates, which eased our anxiety:) We won’t hesitate to use Jennifer again!”



“Jessica was awesome. Gracie was happy to be there and made herself at home! Jessica also went above and beyond for not just Gracie,but us too! We got married in the area and Jessica offered to drop off and pickup Gracie at the ceremony so she can be in our wedding! She even helped us with our pictures! It was amazing! I highly recommend her and definitely will use her again when we are in town again and need her help!”


About: In over 30 years of grooming and caring for dogs and cats, I’ve gained valuable experience in making them feel comfortable and at home. ❤️ I am currently working part time and have a variable schedule. I am able to take breaks to return home and accommodate all the pets needs. we have a nice backyard that has an invisible fence with a mature, small little dog to play with your pets. He is both cat and dog trained.

“Christine and Troy were absolutely wonderful with our dogs. They communicated clearly and consistently and it was obvious that they cared deeply about the comfort and safety of our dogs. They gave them heaps and love and attention and let them roam throughout their warm and welcoming home. They catered to the dogs' quirks and individual wants and needs. I would be thrilled to have Christine and Troy take care of our older dogs again.”
