Safety, trust & environment

I have an outdoor and indoor play space. I believe a happy pup is a busy pup. Walk my pet and yours everyday. In addition to my pup, I will only care for one additional pet. This allows me to give all of the love and attention needed for a happy and healthy pet.

Information Karen B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to have a get to know you session prior to a stay... A chat, a walk or play time. It is important to know what comforts your pup. I would like to know your dogs likes , dislikes, happy places, etc.

A typical day

I enjoy taking pups on walking and hiking adventures in dog friendly spaces within Leelanau County. Skiing, Hiking, Walking, Beach. etc. Pool time and play time in our play space are always fun.

Pet care experience

I've have had dogs since I was a child. Most recently, I have retired and have plenty of time to provide care and attention to your pet as well as my 2 year old, Miniature Golden Doodle, Steve. I have a 1200 Sq Ft outdoor play space and an Indoor play space for rainy days. We walk, take adventures out on Leelanau County trails and beaches. Come play with us!

Karen was awesome. So friendly, she put me at ease right away, she obviously loves dogs. She had great communication and was punctual picking up our dog for his walk. He looked like he had a fun time. I would not hesitate to use Karen again.

Karen took care of our Gino. She was amazing. She was very caring and patient with our little guy. Gino quickly enjoyed playing outside on her fenced-in area. Gino made a great new friend with her dog too. Karne was super sweet and kept in touch with us sending us pictures and updates on Gino. We really loved the updates. Thank you Karen for caring for Gino!

Karen is one of the only people I trust to take care of my two English bulldogs. Bulldogs are quite sensitive to heat, too much exertion and have many other medical oddities, creams and wipes - and Karen handles all of that in stride, bringing water and really listening to what the dogs need, responding to them in the moment. Whether it’s a quick lunchtime walk that turns in to a play time, Potty breaks or even the more adventurous trail exploration Karen has the stamina, attitude and spirit of adventure- That’s just what any dog needs. She also helps my heart by sending me lots of pictures when she is with my babies and I can’t be!
