Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, Fun Dog Sitter:)
Want to travel with your mind at ease? I've been caring for dozens of furry friends for dozens years. I've had dogs and cats nearly my entire life, and I once had a hobby farm with a variety of animals. My little, sweet Pickles (Cocker Spanial) passed in January 2024 and I am currently pet-free. My husband and I love animals. But more than that, we love providing a safe sanctuary for animals. I believe every dog needs to be walked daily. They need an alpha to guide them and set boundaries and show some affection. They need good nutrition and feeding/treat routines. They need clear, consistent communication. And a trusting relationship. We will hang with your furry friend and be their boss-pal while you travel with the ultimate peace of mind. Your dog will come back to you with all their good behaviors firmly intact...if not improved! We constantly reinforce and teach good manners and behaviors while dogs are in our care. I look forward to hosting your furball :)

Ratings and reviews
Cosmo enjoyed another relaxing day with M&J! Great care and communication.
Marcy and her husband were wonderful! They were attentive to our dogs needs, gave her walks, time in the sunshine, and a fun visit to Lake Superior which our dog Ollie loved. We are so grateful Ollie was in a loving home while we were traveling.
Marcy is great! Very thoughtful and wonderful with my dog. I feel lucky we found her!!
Marcy took such good care of our beagle! She was very helpful with our travel to Isle Royale! We felt good about leaving him, as this was the first time! She sent pictures for reassurance he was happy! Would recommend her as well as use her again on a return trip to Houghton MI.
Thank you Marcy for being soo helpful and flexible 😊
Marcy went above & beyond to accommodate my changing plans. Great communication, highly recommend!

Schedule
I have a flexible work schedule and will be home or available to check in frequently on your friend. I am an active person and will be able to walk/run your dog every day, if they are up for it.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a back yard that is partially forested that pups can enjoy when I'm with them. My yard is not fenced so dogs are leashed for bathroom breaks. If your pup is accustomed to being crated, I can continue that routine based on your preference. I only require crating when a dog is not house-trained and I need to leave the house.
A typical day
I love early morning walks and runs to start the day right. Once your pup stretches their legs, moves their body, and does their business, they'll eat and then be content to rest. Evening walks help them settle down for the night.
