Leelanau Dog Vacation

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover, runner, and outdoor enthusiast based in beautiful Leelanau County. I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone who will make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have a dog of my own, Hobbes, who is incredibly social and loves both dogs and people. She is always happy to have a new friend around! Dogs staying with us are treated like part of the family, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and opportunities to relax and get comfortable. One thing that makes my dog sitting a little different: I love running with dogs! If your pup is an experienced runner and enjoys getting some miles in, I’m happy to take them along on runs throughout Leelanau County. Not a runner? No problem at all. Walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, and couch time are just as welcome. I always tailor activity to your dog’s age, fitness level, personality, and normal routine. Whether your dog is here for the day or staying while you’re out of town, my goal is for them to feel like they’re having their own little Leelanau vacation — and for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re happy, active, and well cared for

I hate to give a two star review but I think it’s important to know that Jennifer’s work schedule is varied and when I left our puppy she planned to leave her crated all day. This is not at all why I book with Rover. The good news is she was worried about our Nala and reached out to me to let me know. This was our second experience with Jennifer and when she’s home she’s a great host.

Our two dogs were living their best life while staying with Jennifer. They were able to go hiking, play ball and sleep wherever they wanted. While we were on vacation, our dogs were too!

I found that the Jennifer and Joe took very good care of LaVerne and Shirley from the morning of 6/21 until 1:30 6/22. I would be happy to have them watch the girls again.

Jennifer was great! She came to visit my pups before they stayed at her house, was a great communicator, and even sent pictures and updates throughout their stay. Thank you for making our trip stress free!
