Pet Boarding Lake Orion

About: I have over 6 years of experience working in kennels caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. Along with several family friends and people in my community that I have sat for many many times. I have special training in providing medications in any form (Pills, ear/eye drops, topical medications, insulin injections, etc) and training/experience working with dogs of all temperaments (anxious, aggressive, energetic, reactive, etc.) I have a true passion and love for working with cat and dogs but am at not a point in my life where I can get on of my own, so I would love nothing more to spend some time with your fur baby! I am currently finishing up at school at Michigan State University but am commuting from my hometown for this semester. Fortunately I only have to be up in East Lansing for a couple of hours 2 days a week, and I am investing the rest of my time into my online classes. This has left my schedule pretty open for the upcoming months and I will be spending majority of my time with your pet during their stay! For those interested in boarding, I do live with my parents and a sibling, but they all love to have furry visitors and your pet is guaranteed to get an abundance of attention! When I care for someone else's pet I truly treat them as my own. I have great relationship with all of the clients I currently sit for and their pets. My main goal when sitting is to make sure that both the owner and the pet are entirely comfortable while they are in my care. To do this I try to create a very open line of communication and send frequent updates and pictures and make sure to ask questions rather than guessing how to care for someone else's pet.

“Bradley took wonderful care of our dog and was a lifesaver. We were going out of town for a week, and had planned to board Sherri at a kennel, however after a horrible evaluation day at the kennel we decided that it just wouldn't work. She was miserable and scared the whole five hours she was there. So we started looking for other options. We found Bradley and after a meet and greet with Sherri, concluded that it could work. What a great experience it turned out to be. Sherri was very at ease with him and the other dog he was watching. Bradley sent a daily update and picture, and told us that Sherri was chill and just lounged around during the day. For reference, when we have previously left Sherri with a friend for a weekend, she's been anxious and refused to eat. We are planning to rebook with Bradley for our next vacation.”

“Our rambunctious and mischievous dog Geordi was well cared-for and it seems like he really enjoyed his stay with Cara and Samuel. Communication was excellent, with good response times, proactive updates, and asking questions when needed. He found a new friend in their dog Rio and it seems like they really got along with each other. No complaints whatsoever - I would definitely be interested in hiring this kind and caring couple for pet sitting again in the future.”

“Dawn took fantastic care of my baby! She came home beautifully tired out from playing with Dawn's own fur babies. Dawn provided informative daily updates that kept my mind completely at ease. I highly recommend her!”

“Michaela took great care of my two dogs while we were out of town for a week. Provided updates regularly and they seemed to be very happy in her home. Highly recommend!”

“Grant is a great guy. He treated my dog as if he was his own. Grant is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. My dog adores him and that means everything to me. It is apparent from the moment you see him interact with your dog that it is not just a business to him, it is his love.”

“Misty did a great job watching our dog! She was flexible and responsive to drop off and pick up times, gave frequent updates, and genuinely seems to enjoy and care about animals. Judging by the pleasant smell of our dog at pickup, I think Misty even gave our dog a bath. Will be booking with Misty again in the future!”

“Sathyagopal and his family took such great care of Cosmo! Cosmo went on walks, played fetch, and got lots of pats. We got sweet updates and photos, and Sathyagopal made sure Cosmo got his medication.”

Marie C.

“Steven was great, very responsive and sent daily updates. I was happy to see my dog getting along with all the other dogs with no issues. My plane was delayed and Steven was very understanding. My dog had a great time, because she was whining when she got in the car. I will most definitely use him again. Thanks Steven”

“Deena went above and beyond — making sure our dog Simba was comfortable, well-fed, and well taken care of! It meant the world to us to have Simba watched over while we enjoyed our hectic wedding without any stress. Thank you Deena ❤️”

“Shanel was terrific with our dog. She provided many updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Shanel and will definitely have her watch my pet anytime!”

“Anirudh did a wonderful job taking care of our Luna! He was very caring, responsible, and attentive to her needs. We felt completely comfortable knowing Luna was in good hands while we were away. He kept us updated and treated Luna with so much love and care. We truly appreciate everything he did and would definitely recommend Anirudh to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We would happily have him take care of Luna again! 🐾❤️”

“Catherine was very good to Mojo! It’s always a little nerve wracking to leave your pup at a new place for the first time, but Catherine made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely use her again for dog sitting.”

“Great experience especially last minute, excellent communication and exceptional trust. Plenty of yard space offered, my dogs had an enjoyable experience ❤️ Thanks Amanda”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. Personally I have always had a dog as a pet. I am always the person family or friends call when they need someone to watch their pets. I currently work a fully remote full time job. I am able to tend to your pet in the morning and evenings. Occasionally I am also able to take breaks at work where I could get a walk in. I am able to care for pets at your home or in my home for the day if your dog gets along with cats. They say dogs are the best judge of character and I've never met a dog that didn't like me!

“This was our first time using Rover, and Kelly was happy to meet with me and my dog before we booked. She is so warm and friendly, and her dog Suzie is a such a sweetheart. All on my part, but I did not realize my young dog would have separation anxiety with a very upset stomach, and Kelly handled things like a pro. I called my vet after our stay to see what calming options I could use in the future, and she told me Kelly was an excellent Rover host if she was able to get my dog's stomach back to normal. Kelly went above and beyond, feeding my dog a bland diet and trying home remedies we discussed over the phone to get her back to normal. She sent photos and communicated with me daily. I would absolutely recommend her to others!”

“​I cannot recommend Irv highly enough! From the very beginning, his organized nature and flexibility made the entire booking and drop-off process a breeze. He made sure to keep us fully updated before the stay even began, which gave us so much peace of mind right out of the gate. ​During the stay, Irv’s attention to detail truly shined. He sent consistent, thorough updates and photos, showing exactly how well he was taking care of Daisy. It was clear that she was in fantastic hands, getting plenty of love, and having a great time. If you’re looking for a reliable, attentive, and communicative sitter, Irv is your guy. We would absolutely book with him again!”

“Our doggy was so happy with Alison and Parmer during the three weeks of her stay. They are a wonderful couple with a genuine love for dogs. We had such peace of mind during our vacations and would gladly book them again for our next trip.”

“Kris took such great care of our little Bella. She was very accommodating, especially with helping to administer medication during Bella’s stay, taking her on many walks and making sure she slept comfortably. Our dog is used to lots of attention, and it was clear that she got it during the stay. Her home is warm and inviting, and we were able to get to know her and her family during a meet and greet, which helped us plan for the stay as well. We knew Bella was being well taken care of, and having a great time, as she sent many updates and pictures throughout the week. It felt like Kris treated her just like one of the family!”
