“Beth is amazing! Her home was perfect for our high energy dogs, and they really enjoyed playing with her dog as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust my fur babies with. Thank you, Beth!”



“We’ve used Kelsey more than once now and she rocks. She always sends photo updates and Harley is happy and exhausted whenever we pick her up! Couldn’t recommend Kelsey enough!”


“Carly was great. Communicated quickly and was very flexible with our changing schedule. Our dogs did great together. We will surely use her again when we are in the Ludington area.”


“Kara was especially interested in Meshas's routine care that would make her stay more comfortable. Her daily photos and updates on Mesha's eating and purring helped me feel more comfortable. I felt that Kara really cared about both Mesha and my concerns, so I knew my cat was in good hands. Thank you Kara”


About: I’ve had my puppy for about 6 months now and would love to have doggy friends over for play dates. She could use some doggy interaction. She loves to play with other dogs. I work a few days out of the week a couple hours a day. I’m home the rest of the time. I won’t take in any dogs while I’m away. I can rearrange my work schedule so I don’t have to go in any certain day or time. I have a big yard that is not fenced in, but I can take your dog out on a leash if you provide one. I can take them for walks around my property. And if you allow it they can free roam the yard as well.

“Michelle was AMAZING with my pup! He loved her two doggos and didn’t want to leave ? She had consistent communication with me which I LOVED and she clearly loves any dog in her care! I will definitely be using her boarding again in the future and I know Little Dog can’t wait for his vacation with her family.”



“Sue was incredible from start to finish! She took such great care of my girl, sent me adorable pictures every day, and sent my dog home refreshed and relaxed! I was so relieved to see them getting along like best friends, I can tell Sue provides a perfect environment to keep high energy pups happy and consistent with their training too! I will 100% book with Sue again!”


“Alex and Nicholas were able to accommodate an older dog last minute. I received daily updates and pictures. They treated Miles like one of their own dogs. Would book with the host again!”


“Libby and her family were FANTASTIC! Our little one had so much fun playing with her kids and she actually came back happy, tired and ready to nap! Libby was attentive to her needs, sent us daily updates with pictures, and over all we felt she was well taken care of. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her services again! ☺️”


About: I’ve always been the go to friend/aunt to pet sit. I love all animals and would rather spend my free time hanging out with a fuzzy friend. I would loveeeeeeee to walk your dog! I currently work from home and would love a buddy to hangout with! I live close to the bike trail and many parks and would enjoy a furry friend to take walks with! If you are in need of someone to drop in, have a place for your pet to stay or just a companion for your friend to take walks with I am the one you are looking for!

“Erin and her family took great care of our dog. They were very easy to work with and flexible with some last minute changes. I highly recommend her/them to anyone who wants a welcoming and loving home for their dog!!”


About: Hi! I’m Ashley, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. My stepdad was the head of animal control, which taught me a lot about animal behavior, safety, and compassion at a young age. I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently share my heart (and couch!) with two of my own—Sassy, my sweet 17-year-old dachshund who I’ve had since 2011, and Oakley, a playful 6-year-old lab I adopted from the local animal shelter. I understand the unique needs of both senior dogs and high-energy pups, and I treat every animal in my care like family. Whether your pet needs gentle senior support, active playtime, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help with dependable, loving care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home most of the week, which allows me to give my dogs plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I’m only five minutes from home, so I’m able to come back easily to let my dogs out and check in on them. Their well-being is always a top priority, and I structure my day to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for—I’d do the same for yours! I care for pets in whatever way is most comfortable for them. I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. If your pet loves their kennel, that’s perfectly fine—but if they prefer to cuddle up in bed, I’m more than happy to share the extra snuggles! Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding routines, or just relaxing on the couch, I do my best to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home.

“Misty was just great with our dogs. She has a great location for allowing them outdoor time. Whatever your dogs require, Misty will try to accommodate you. Our dogs enjoyed their stay and my husband and I were both very pleased she treated them so well.”
