“Amazing people, kept me updated on my babies constantly because I was so nervous ? but they were so accommodating and my babies had so much fun. Will definitely book them again next time we come to Michigan!”
“If you’re searching for home-away-from-home where your fur-babies are showered with love, attention, and affection, look no further. Deborah, Dick, and their sweet children really do treat your family like their own. They share amazing photo and video updates throughout the stay and provide plenty of exercise and fun activities to keep anxious minds and bodies busy. Chances are, like my two little Poodles, they will have so much fun, they may briefly forget you left them at all. I have a clingy Velcro dog and it hurts my heart to leave her. They were so loving and patient with her…I truly hope I never have to leave anywhere else in the future! To be honest, I was hesitant to leave such a glowing review because I want to keep them all to myself but I can’t be selfish. All pets and pet owners deserve this quality of care and peace of mind. Just book it! Thank you for taking great care of my sweet fluffs! Renee, Angel, & Loki”
“Kelli did such an AMAZING job with Ellie, I was so anxious and she sent me updates multiple times! I could not have asked for anyone better to take care of my fur baby. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Millie always loves her time with Heavan. Her longest stay to date and she was well taken care of. I don't just trust anyone with my dog, she's treated as an only child and Heavan gets the importance of that. Fair priced and always treats your fur baby as her own.”
“Ellie was amazing! We had a last minute trip come up as well as cancelled flights and she was so kind through all the changes. She made sure we felt comfortable with Ember’s first stay there. Even though Ember was there for only one night, she came home tired and happy which showed how much Ellie played with her and gave her attention. 100% recommend Ellie for any dog sitting needs!”
“Taya was great and very flexible. My dog had surgery and was wearing a cone and she made special accommodations for him saving our family vacation. She sent lots of pictures and videos and he really enjoyed his stay and huge fenced in yard.”
“This is my second time trusting Deb to care for Ralph. It was a very last minute request and I thank her tremendously for being there for me and Ralph in a pinch. Deb’s home is clean and well maintained. I love that Ralph always has friends to play with when he goes there and she takes excellent care of Ralph. I trust her completely.”
“Did a great job watching r dog. We hadn’t gone away before (she is a puppy) : Staci made her feel at home. She got the runs: and I m not sure if she was nervous or ate something (is a puppy so puts everything in her mouth) but Staci gave her some TLC and she got over it. Thx so much for your loving care!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, my dogs are my babies and I would treat yours the same. Fully fenced in yard to play fetch in and run around I’m currently a stay at home dog dad so they will never be left alone, always ready to take outside and let play with toys. I let my dogs out every couple of hours, always have food available for them and take them outside to play fetch whenever the weather permits
“Tasha is great. She has a great property, my dog always seems happy with her, especially on my longer trips. Tasha always sends me video and picture updates throughout the stay, which is very reassuring. Her and her family seem to really love pets. I can tell my little one feels safe and comfortable when she stays in their home.”
“I am so happy that we found her. She treated my dogs like her own and sent us pictures and updates daily. They were very comfortable there and by the looks of it they had a great time. I will definitely be rebooking in the future. Thank you again”
“Ava did a great job with Finn. He had a fun time playing with her Finn and Honey. He also learned some new things, now I just need to learn them too! I definitely plan to board my Finn there again and continue working with Ava on Finn and my training.”
“Draco always has a great time here! Comes back happy and exhausted. Her and her family takes good care of him while i’m gone and sends me picture updates of how he’s doing.”
“This was my first experience using Rover so I was pretty nervous about leaving my pup for the weekend, but as soon as I met Sarah and the family, it took all the stress out of the situation. They went above and beyond to make sure the stay was accommodating and their knowledge of animals blew me away. She was so tired from playing when we came to pick her up - I knew she had a blast and was well cared for.??”
“Amazing! Third time Max stays with Loretta! Once again, looking at photos I feel like Max thinks that Loretta’s place is his place. To the point, I guess he becomes conflicted in between coming back home or staying there longer. 😂😂😂”
