Pet care experience

I am a dog lover, but I care for cats as well. I have owned giant breeds for 30 years.. I am retired, flexible and experienced with all age pets. I have a safe home environment with a fenced dog run located at the foot of the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness Area, above the south shore of Lake Superior. Im available to house sit , board overnight, day care, walks or check ins. Conveniently located near your campground, rental or motel. I am available to hike with or walk your dog while you explore the area. Got a water dog? I'll take them to the beach for a swim. If you just want a check in or mid day belly rubs, I'm available for that too! I love my pets, I will love yours too!

Gladdie is extremely reliable and attentive. We have two cats who don’t get along, and she even got them to peacefully touch noses! She was very responsive during her visits with our cats, including sending videos and updates, and we felt relieved our cats were in good hands.

This is Abbie’s third stay with Gladdie, and we are so pleased…. Many walks, many pics/videos, and much love! Thanks again, Gladdie!

I would give her 5+++! This was our golden doodle’s first time with her. Many pics and updates from Gladdie-helped us get ok and relax while away. She is a godsend! Many walks and nature watching. Home is very dog friendly. When we picked up our dog, she was calm and happy. For an extremely anxious dog… this is quite a feat. :) I’ve already reserved a second stay. Thank you, Gladdie!
