Daniel was great, we had to leave our new puppy for a week, and he did a wonderful job taking care of her. He also sent us many cute pictures. I would highly recommend him if you need daycare for you pup! :)

About: I first started caring for animals in elementary school through a vet camp at the West Michigan Humane Society, which I attended three different times. Since then, I’ve continued helping care for friends’ and family members’ pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work part time and I’m a student but I usually have a pretty flexible schedule and can accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any instructions provided by owners. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs while keeping their space clean and secure.

Will book again, it was nice for the dogs to have others like them to play together with and know that someone was watching them that has experience with this breed.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, currently have a rescue that is a Cur/Dalmatian mix. I fostered a German Shepherd and just found him his forever home! My previous pup was a pure bred red-nose pit! I work from home so am available for all needs! And yes, my dog does sleep on my bed! Lots of outdoor toys to tire them out! I have a fenced in yard and a “puppy pool” for those hot days! I live in a quiet neighborhood with an excellent dog walking route, even have a neighbor who put out dog treats in a mailbox for frequent walkers!

About: I've had one or more dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. I currently have a senior red heeler that I rescued 8 years ago. Not only have I grown up taking care of my own dogs, as an adult I dog sit quite regularly for friends. I do work from home, which affords me the opportunity to take breaks to interact with and toilet my heeler and any other dog we have visiting, on their schedules. I work from home, so Monday thru Friday, I rarely leave my home, except to take the dog for walks. I may go away in the evenings, during the week, for a couple hours, but that's rare. I do tend to be more active on the weekends, doing my grocery shopping and running other errands, as well church on Sundays, and an occasional brunch. I do have a fenced in back yard as well as a senior red heeler (as stated earlier). My heeler doesn't really pay much attention to other dogs, and seems to prefer the company of humans. That being said, he gets along great with other dogs.

Megan did a great job watching our pup. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. Harley was EXHAUSTED when we left, which is always a great sign. Will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life within my own family as well as being trusted to watch over friends and family pets as well. This includes dogs of all sizes, medical needs, senior care, etc. I am able to be home to give your pet the attention and frequent potty breaks they may need and can provide frequent updates and photos while you’re away. I look forward to connecting! I am currently working from home only part time and would be able to watch over your pet in the home all hours of the day and week. I have a friendly dog at home that gets along great with others. I have a yard and would be able to take your dog out leashed and for walks as it is unfenced at this time. I can definitely crate your dog if needed, let them roam around if that’s what you’re comfortable with, provide medication as needed, etc.

Katrina took excellent care of my dog Blu. She was consistent with communication and updates about how Blu was doing. She made sure to keep him comfortable and took him for walks throughout the day. I would absolutely recommend allowing Katrina to take care of your fur baby!

About: We have been with dogs and other animals our whole life and love dogs. Our Shiba Inu, Sami, is our fourth baby. Your pet will get the attention and safety he/she needs and will be treated no different than our own. Our work hours are flexible and we prioritize our walks with our pet so it will be the same as others. Sami gets 2 walks and 3-4 bathroom breaks per day usually at least 1 of them is off leash at a dog park. We are not a dog boarder, your dog will be in a home and will know the difference. We treat your dog with the same care as ours and will follow your instructions as instructed. Typically, bathroom break between 3-4 hours and at least 3 times per day for each dog.

Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!

About: I've never gone a day without a dog to care for, and developed a knack for training at a young age. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I've also gladly supported neighbors and friends with theirs. I love animals of all kinds, and will work hard to ensure that yours receive heart-felt care and attention that will leave them feeling happy and comfortable. I'm a student, currently available for the summer to care for your pups, so I have plenty of time to play fetch, go for walks and give them lots of belly scratches. Available for check-ins, sitting and walks morning, afternoon and early evening. I will make sure to care for your pets according to their needs, recognizing that daily routines and habits are essential to ensuring that they're comfortable and at ease. Regular communication is also key, and I will be sure to keep you posted on how they're doing while you're away! Rest assured, I will do my utmost to ensure that your pets are well taken care of, just as I do my own.

This was our first experience with River and boy, did we choose wisely! This was a “test” for our pups in preparation for a 2 night stay and it was really good! Jenn meet us at the front door and took the dogs immediately out the back to the yard to aid in our escape. Of course they were happy to see us upon our return but we are confident in our decision to leave them longer with Jenn. We highly recommend her!

David watched our 16 year old blind dog while we attended a concert from out of state and it was a blessing. He is so kind and gentle and took the best care of our old pup. Our dog is severely attached to his dad and normally doesn’t stop whimpering for him but David said all went well and we couldn’t be happier he was well taken care of while he couldn’t be with us. Highly recommend booking with David!

Daphne gave our puppy,Roux, a fun day full of outings. She took her the dog park, the trails and the beach! Roux also got on very well with Daphne’s dog, Maggie. Roux had such a great time, I had a hard time getting her to leave 😂 Will definitely be booking with Daphne again!

Deb was amazing with my dog Adu. After a couple of days with her Adu was excited to spend time with Deb and she took great care of him. I am grateful to her for accepting a last minute request and for taking such great care of Adu. Adu always came back home relaxed and happy 😊. I would definitely recommend her. Thank you so much Deb!

Rachel was very patient and gentle in dealing with our Lucy. Lucy is a 15 year old senior dog and dealing with her is similar to dealing with a 90 year old grandma. I could tell that she was comfortable and at ease with her stay with Rachel. Rachel is understanding of a dog's needs and can be trusted to provide the best care possible for your dog. Rachel does a good job.
