Doggy Day Care in Frain Lake

“Ace had a great time at Erin’s, he was so exhausted afterwards! Erin takes such good care of all the pups and gives them lots of play time, which Ace loves!”

About: Hi there! We accept small to medium-sized dogs (20 pounds max or less) and typically care for no more than 4 dogs at a time. Under our careful supervision, your pup can interact and play freely, enjoying both the house and our spacious, clean, secure and fenced-in backyard. They are not confined to kennels or cages, and can sleep wherever they feel comfortable, whether in the open or in their own crate. We have many nooks and crannies for the pups to relax in and many soft, clean blankets and pillows. They will have ample time outdoors for fresh air, exercise and fun (weather permitting), and the rest of course spent indoors, having fun, resting, playing games (we have many many puzzles and snuffle mats) and occasionally having a yummy, owner approved treat (we don't want upset tummies). They are regularly let out for potty breaks and fresh air every 1 to 2 hours, and never left unattended. WHAT WE WOULD LOVE TO KNOW: We understand each dog has their own personality, likes, dislikes, and temperament. ****A meet-n-greet is required prior to the start of any service.**** -Unless arranged by special request during the week, they are usually on Saturdays and Sundays and by appointment. -Please allow enough time prior to your reservation to arrange for the meet-n-greet. LAST MINUTE REQUESTS: We will do our best to accommodate those in tight spots, but generally we only reserve this option for established clients only. VACCINATIONS: Please ensure your pup is up-to-date with vaccinations before boarding to protect them and our little ones from illnesses. PHOTOS: We know how important peace of mind is, so we send consistent, informative photos/updates/videos of your little one so that you know what they are up to and so that you can rest assured that they are doing well! LOCATION: We are located right outside of Ann Arbor - perfect spot near highways and shops! MEDICATION: Yes, we do provide, however, we do not provide service to pets that are sick/ill/recovering/ or need medical attention during their stay. We do provide service to pets that are in good health but require maintenance medications, with vets' approval. FIRST AID/CPR: As of November 2024, we are actively working on finding a reputable organization to refresh our human and pet first aid and CPR certification! ABOUT OUR LITTLE ONES: Archie and Roxy are our two adorable, little terriers who love to have fun - they would be co-hosting with me. My husband works from home, so there is generally always someone home. Either my husband, who works from home, or I will be on hand to supervise the dogs at all times. Ensuring your dogs' safety is my highest priority. A LITTLE ABOUT US: My husband and I are super responsible, incredibly loving dog parents. I was raised with dogs, and other animals, as was my husband (who grew up on a farm here in Michigan). Combined, we have closer to 20 plus years of experience in taking care of our own furbabies, those of our neighbors, and various other kinds of pets. We've been there, worried and stressed out over having to find someone trustworthy who will treat and love our little ones with the same level of care and concern that we do! Being super loving, very protective, and knowledgeable pet parents ourselves, we know full well how stressful it can be to rely on someone else. We are great communicators and continuously strive to educate ourselves and learn about the best new dog products, services, treats, etc. Please rest assured that we will do our best to answer your questions and concerns. It's always a joy to connect with fellow pet parents who are just as devoted and loving to their family members as we are to ours! My schedule tends to be flexible. My husband works from home as well- it’s a joy to have little ones running around! There is always someone at home with a watchful eye - your pup will never be left alone. The importance of temperament cannot be overstated; if there are particular household rules to increase the comfort of your furbaby, I will follow them to the letter. I would like to know if he/she has any medical issues, special needs, etc. A veterinarian's contact information and instructions would be required if medication is needed - this of course also applies if they have special dietary needs, allergies, etc.

“Margaret is so wonderful with my dogs. She kept me in the loop with updates and pictures. She does an amazing job caring for my two doodles! Highly recommend”

“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”

“We dropped our new pup off to Kayden while we had dinner with friends. Chief had so much fun (he slept for the 2-1/2 hour ride home)! Kayden has a high level of expertise when it comes to pups. You can tell by the progressive report. Will for sure schedule another drop in with Kayden when in the area!”

“Marcin has been super great with our dog moonshine. He seems to intuitively know dogs and they bonded immediately. My puppy looks happy and greets Marcin enthusiastically. Thanks Marcin!”

“Panda came back so-o-o relaxed and happy from Laura and Manuel's. (He was happy to go there, and in no big hurry to come home!) Good amount of feedback of how he spent his day and how he behaved. Their dogs are such a sweet little dog pack for any pup to join! And Laura is so good at putting anxious dogs at ease.”

Laura Z.

“Shannon was a wonderful sitter for our pup for the day! She was available to take him at the last minute on a holiday and my dog had a great time with her. When I arrived to pick him up Shannon walked away from my pup to retrieve something out the house and he went to follow her because he wanted to go where she went. He loved spending the day with her, her dog and her family ❤️ I highly recommend Shannon and will definitely use her in the future!”

“Getting frequent photos makes such a difference in my comfort with someone watching my dog who is my entire world. Trusting someone new with Bellamy always makes me so anxious and trinity really alleviated my fears with photos and a summary of how he was doing. He is a dog that gets along with everyone but you just never know. If you’re an anxious pawrent, trinity might be a great match for you!”

Sophia B.

“My pup Teddy had the best time spending the day with Jamiee and her dogs! Can’t wait to visit them next year! Jamiee sent photos and map of walk to me afterwards, it was great to know he had fun and got along well. See you next time!”

Julie E.

“Jane is fantastic! She responds to my request quickly and is easily communicated. She is taking a good care of my puppy, play with him, walk him and send me pictures/video that greatly soothe my nerves (as this is my first time to trust someone to take care of my high-energy puppy).”

J D.

“Allyssa did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She asked thoughtful questions about my dog's needs during the meet and greet. Her communication and attention to detail about our unique situation made me feel like my dog was in great hands.”

Paula S.

“Gabby is amazing with dogs! We had an urgent need for a day care and Gabby was happy to help out. Moses loved hanging out with Gabby and her dogs, so the day went great for him and it was a big help for us.”

Irene D.

“Logann was amazing with our pup! He and Ollie had a great time hanging out for the day. Logann is very friendly and nice to talk to. Scout was tired after a fun day of play. We received wonderful pictures of Scout and his new friend Ollie. We are very happy Scout was safe and had fun! Thank you!”

Lynda W.

“We would highly recommend Julian as a dog sitter. He was punctual, caring and calm with our dog. Summit enjoyed his stay with Julian! Thank you for your help today.”

About: Ever since I can remember I have had dogs in my home. Over the years, I have provided for dogs from 2 years old up until their senior years, giving me experience caring for a wide-range of ages. I currently work mostly from home with occasional trips to my office throughout the week, so I will be around to provide a loving environment for your dog. For younger dogs, I can provide more active play sessions on the weekends and evenings. For all dogs, I will be available throughout the day to ensure they get the attention they need to feel loved and happy. I have a good-sized fenced-in yard that provides plenty of room for running, exercise, and exploring. My house is a one-story home so dogs with joint issues will be comfortable. No other animals are currently in the home so your dogs will be my only focus.

“Caring and patient with my anxious dog.”

“Matt was incredible, our dogs loved it!”

About: Since I was a teenager I have been taking care of dogs from friends and family. I will take care of your dog like if it was mine 🥰. I enjoy taking dogs for a walk. I'm currently working from home and I have breaks through the day where I can play or take your dog for a walk. I live close to nice parks. I don't have any pets at home so your dog will be my special guest 😊 I make sure they have plenty food and water and check on him/her if they need to go outside to handle some business 😉

“Bridget did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Bear! She was communicative, sent pictures, and he was happy and sleepy when we picked him up.”
