100% there for your pets & mine!

Pet care experience

Dogs have always been with me - my former neighborhood retail store always had shop dogs, I have always been the friend who watches friends' dogs while they are away, I have hired myself out to watch clients' dogs in their home or in mine, and of course I have always had dogs in my own home since childhood. I live alone in a beautiful natural setting with few distractions - I can and will give your pets my full attention. I am a communicator and will keep you posted on details when necessary or desired. I have a great home for pets - their happiness is paramount! Lots of one on one attention, playing, treats, and loving them up good is what I am famous for.

Sally did a wonderful job with our 9 month old puppy for day care. Charlie had little experience with other dogs or being away from home without us. Sally understood her needs and behavior and was very understanding. She helped Charlie adjust and gave us feedback during and after the stay as well as pictures during her time there. It will be a good experience for Charlie to gain experience and confidence.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large outdoor kennel which is always available for big breeds who like to stay outside when the weather is appropriate. Inside, roaming the 1100 square foot house on one level has been the norm. I can provide a medium sized dog crate, or you can bring your own if desired. Dogs are welcome on my beds and furniture, if you allow that.

Information Sally M. would like to know about your pet

A history of aggressive behavior and/or an abundance of mindless barking would need to be reported and discussed first. All breeds, sizes, and temperaments are okay as long as safety and calm can be reasonably maintained during the visit. Incontinence and occasional "accidents" are not the end of the world - I have a great Kirby vacuum and I can always shampoo the carpets when the visit ends.

A typical day

My two dogs, George & Pookie, will keep your dogs company and the gang of us can walk down to nearby Lake Charlevoix on an amazing nature walk almost any day of the year. We have a long, open living room to use where we can throw balls and chase about merrily. All the furniture is comfortable to cuddle on, with plenty of stroking and quiet, soothing talk for any shy pups that find themselves here. No pressure, not a lot of commotion and noise, no one coming in and out disrupting us from our good time together.
