>>> PLEASE NOTE: Pitbull mixes are not permitted per our homeowners insurance <<< ALL furry friends required to be fully house-trained without accidents or destructive behavior. Welcome! We are so excited at the opportunity of hosting your sweet k9 kiddos! Being just a block from Lake Michigan and the Oak Leaf Trail is a great bonus to living in the VERY dog friendly neighborhood of Bay View. We provide a loving home as we love company. Especially since our 12 yr old Golden Retriever, Mona, crossed the rainbow bridge in March 2023. It brings a great deal of joy to our household to host furry friends. Your pup will be treated as part of our family - complete with regular walks, soft/comfy accommodations and lots of love. We have a fenced in yard that allows for lots of secured play time as well. You can rest assured that your pooch will be safe and sound in our home. Don't delay, book with us now. Our place is a hot commodity.

Sarah was available last minute for boarding and so friendly and accommodating for our gal! She sent photos and videos daily! I would let Sarah watch our dog again anytime!
