Doggy Day Care in Lapeer

About: I have been training, showing, and caring for dogs for over 30 years. I have extensive experience in dog training and behavior modification. We have a small cozy kennel with doggie daycare located on our personal property Dog watching, training, and showing is my full time job. I have extensive experience with introducing dogs into packs for safe fun play. I work with owners teaching them how to train their dogs and will help with extra training as available. We have 10 individual kennels for dogs at night and a large indoor doggie daycare play area as well as a 6 ft fully fenced outdoor play area.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of any kind since I was 13. Neighbors, friends, and family relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll be able to take care of any of your pets. I’m available anytime during the week after 3 pm. I just moved into a trailer so your animals will have plenty of room inside and also a private backyard. I have a dog to keep yours company along with two cats. I can also crate your dog if needed.

About: My name is Mackenzie P., my fiancé and I are located in Lapeer and both work full time from home, our house offers a fully fenced in backyard. We have always been dog & cat people, we have two dogs (shelties) and a cat of our own. Thank you so much for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon! I do work full time but on a flex schedule - this means I can be available at the time of day you need assistance! I would care for a clients pet as my own - this includes the love and respect I would give my own pet! For example, making sure the dog is comfortable and not stressed on a walk.

“Silver was so good with Charlie! I've never left her anywhere before so I was worried, but Silver updated me throughout her stay with pictures to let me know how she was doing. I will definitely be contacting her again in the future.”

About: Hi there! I have had animals at home my whole 30 years of life! From cats to dogs to rabbits & chickens! I have been professionally watching peoples pets for the last 5 years. I did attend a vet tech program in 2018. I have experience with puppies, all the way to senior care. I am comfortable and experienced at administering meds as well! I am a stay at home mom to a school aged boy. I am home pretty much all day every day. Making my availability extremely flexible. All pets will be at the main floor of our home, we do have a basement. We are not fenced in but are completely surrounded by woods on our 5 acres of land! Most of the dogs I watch will be put on a leash outside unless I am told they won't run away! Also, will crate if that is what they are used to!

About: I am home full time and have 3 Shih Tzus. I have owned horses, goats, donkeys and cats. I enjoy being with animals. I am able to do special needs such as medicine and shots. Have some knowledge of veterinary care. I just moved up here from Tennessee and would like to take care of animals while owners are away. Was born here in Michigan and moved to Arizona for 18 years where we had a ranch. I also worked for a horse ranch where the owner left me in charge of her operation while she traveled. At the same time we had horses and I took full care of them. All animals will be cared for like they are my own. Will be loved very much. I am home full time. I will be with your pets during their stay 24/7. They will have full run of our house just like our dogs We get up about 5 am to get my husband off to work. We go back to bed til about 8 am. We go outside to play for a bit then come in for breakfast. They are able to be out as long as they enjoy. We can play inside if they want to or rest whenever. Have dinner about 6 pm and relax after.

“Jamie was very friendly and gave regular updates with pics of how my dog was doing. Was very quick to respond and incredibly polite and professional.”

About: My journey in dog care began at a board and train facility, where I had the privilege of working closely with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I've gained invaluable experience in understanding and meeting the unique needs of each dog under my care. Whether it's administering medication, following dietary guidelines, or simply providing plenty of belly rubs, I pride myself on going above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of every dog I encounter. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am home most days with my both of my children (4yrs & 1.5 yrs) and our dog. As a dog parent myself, I understand the bond that forms between humans and their furry friends, and I strive to provide the same level of care and devotion to every dog in my care.

“We had Courtney watch our cute 8wk old puppy for a week. She did a fantastic job caring for our puppy. We will definitely use her in the future.”

About: Hi my name is Audrey! I am a mother of 2 children and have always had a soft spot for animals. I have walked, fed, bathed, and taken care of pets of all ages. I have always been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I am currently working part time and from home. I will have plenty of time to care for and give your pet the attention they need and deserve! I am available for short or long term stays. Myself and my family are able to play with your pup majority of the day and make sure they are safe, stimulated, and get lots of lovin' I will provide frequent potty breaks on a long runner or leash walk around my neighborhood. I would like to do a meet and greet prior to your visit to establish a first impression with your pet and show them where he could possible be staying to allow them to go to a familiar place. Please let me know if your pet has any allergies/medications, fleas, or kennel cough. If your pet has fleas or kennel cough I will not board your dog. If it is unknown and made aware to me upon visit I will be sending your pet home. The health of all the dogs in my care is a top priority.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I provide safe, loving, and attentive care that keeps tails wagging and owners worry-free. I have a flexible, open schedule and am available for pet sitting mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Whether it's last-minute or planned, I’m here to help! In my home or a client’s, I create a safe, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I provide lots of attention, keep the space clean, and make sure they feel calm and happy while you're away. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door to inside and other friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company if at my home.

“Tristan is great with my dog and always patient when I’m a little late dropping off or picking up. (So being patient with me might be more of a challenge than being patient with my puppy). I highly recommend him for daycare or overnight. While I already had an obedience trainer before bringing my dog for daycare, I can tell that he’d be a really good trainer, too.”

About: I am a stay at home mom with 2 school - aged boys. My kids love dogs almost as much as I do and are very good at helping out with them. I have been a dog owner for 30+ years and our dogs have always been treated like family, including having their own Christmas stockings. Unfortunately, we had to put both of our girls (black labs, ages 14 and 15) down, so we are currently a pet-free home. I will only care for dogs in my home that get along with children so everyone will feel comfortable. If your dog plays well with others, (s)he will be treated as family! I work from home, so I spend the majority of my day at home. Your pet will not be alone for long, if at all. We live on 3 acres and while we don’t have a fenced yard, your pet will spend plenty of time outside (on a leash) and be walked around the yard every few hours. I currently work from home. I will be able to take your pet for multiple walks daily and attend to their needs consistently. Even though I work from home, my time is important. Last minute requests will have a $25 charge added to the booking. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a good amount of property and will walk your pup throughout the day. If they need more exercise, I do have a long lead I can put them on to play fetch or just run around. I do not allow the pups to be outside unsupervised or unleashed at any time.

“Louie had a great first day with Kerry! She is wonderful and her home is beautiful and pet-friendly. She understands Lou’s needs as a puppy and made time for lots of walks and play time to tire him out! She kept in very close communication with us and sent cute pictures of Louie all day. She is incredibly loving towards Louie and made us feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. We trust her implicitly and appreciate how flexible she is with late pickup times. We will continue to use her as needed for daycare! Thank you so much Kerry!!!”

“Glad I was able to use Rover during our travel. Diane was attentive to Bob making certain he ate and drank while he was in her care. Home was clean and well cared for. This is about the 4th time I have scheduled a sitter when I have had to travel to an event a distance from home. Will recommend Diane to family who live in her area and to other travelers”

“I’m so happy I found Andrea and Tyler! They’re both so kind and welcoming, and it’s clear they really love dogs. They took the time to carefully introduce my 100-pound lab, Amos, to their two sweet, easygoing pups, which put me at ease since he hasn’t had a lot of experience around other dogs. I really appreciated how tuned in they were to his needs - making sure he got breaks and some solo time with them when he needed it. That kind of care means so much. I’m looking forward to having Amos spend time with them in the future - they’ve already been such a supportive part of his socialization journey!”

About: Both Matt and I have taken care of animals since we were young for friends &family. We have two frenchies (both are 2yrs old )but have also had experience with other breeds. Our frenchies are sweethearts and LOVE to play. Your fur baby will have lots of fun and love in our home. Having two frenchies, we know how high maintenance some dogs can be, that’s why it’s important to us to provide the best experience for you and your fur baby. During Monday-Friday I work 8-5. However, my husband does work from home so will be able to give your fur baby all the love and attention!( if Matt does have to step out it’s typically no longer than 2 hours but not often ) If you have any questions regarding our schedule, please feel free to reach out. If for some reason Matt does have to leave for more than a couple hours, we will block that day off as we do not believe in leaving fur babies alone for long periods. We are homebodies on the weekends as well. So someone will always be with your fur baby. We will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of walks and outside time. We live in a nice/quiet neighborhood. When the weather is nice, our frenchies love to sun bathe, play fetch, we also set up their splash pad, so we spend lots of time outside. We do allow dogs on our bed and furniture( if you allow it) we will not crate your dog unless we do have to step out ( which again is not often). During the night, we will not crate unless you prefer them in a crate. Please let us know if there is any special request and we can accommodate. We do ask for a meet n greet to make sure your dogs and our two frenchies get along. Your fur baby’s safety and comfortability will always be our priority as well as our babies. Our frenchies have been around numerous dog. We know how it feels leaving your baby, we will make sure to send a daily update to leave you at ease.With our schedules, we can typically accommodate last minute requests, we make sure to have our calendar updated. We can’t wait to meet your fur baby!
