Pet Boarding Norton Shores

“Vicki took such great care of my dog while I was away. She always gave me updates on how she was doing which was so great. Will definitely use her in the future!”

About: Experienced with all kinds of dogs. I grew up with an 8lb maltese and went to boarding school where I frequently took care of a golden doodle and a pitbull/boxer puppy. Spent a summer with my brothers dog (pitbull mix), dogsat 2 older dogs for a summer (golden and mini doodle) and also have some experience taking care of cats. I’ve had experience with over hyper dogs and anxious dogs so I know how to adjust their environment to make them most comfortable. I live in a small apartment but I am right next to a park and enjoy exercising/being outside. I am currently working Monday through Friday from 7-4:30 so I am not generally available till 5:30 on a weekday. I’m available on the weekends! I have no pets of my own so your pet will be getting my full attention. I live down the road from a large park and there are many walking paths nearby. For overnights, I do have a smaller apartment so I wouldn’t want to take any dogs larger than ~40lbs as it likely would not be enough room for them.

“I would highly recommend Brenda if you need a dog sitter! She has a very nice, big yard for the dogs to play and run in. She took great care of our pups and sent several updates while we were gone. I think our pups enjoyed their vacation just as much as we did ours! Brenda even put a special treat for the pups in our bag when we picked them up.”

“It was an amazing stay for our pet. We had to find a sitter last minute and Melissa was incredibly welcoming and helpful. She took wonderful care of our dog and even took her on adventures (walks, fishing, and sunbathing on the spacious patio). I can’t recommend this experience enough!”

Evan D.

“Terry and Chuckie took EXCELLENT care of Max during his stay. He needed additional care for his eye condition and they immediately stepped up to meet all of his needs. Terry sent several updates throughout the day which helped put this dog mom at ease. Looking forward to his next stay with them!”

“Great communication, friendly sitters, and all the pictures made us feel very comfortable while away. Recommended to others & will book again.”

About: We owned a sweet, energetic Alaskan Husky until our third son was born. Our boys were so good with her and still miss her. We have more space now and are home all the time with a secure fenced yard. Ready to welcome some animal life back in! I just ask that your dog is comfortable around kids. Our boys are ages 3-7. As a homeschool family of 5 we’re pretty much always home. We’re home usually everyday during the week, and weekends after 1pm. We are confident your pup will get the love and attention they need and truly feel at home away from home! We have a great fenced yard for dogs. No pets except two bunnies who live outside in secure hutches. Our boys love all animals and are taught to handle them gently, firm and respectfully. Your pup will get plenty of love, play, and potty opportunities :)

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and currently have both a dog and a kitten of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets! I work in healthcare, which has made me very responsible, attentive, and detail oriented. I have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving environment while keeping you updated for peace of mind :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dog and kitten every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. Because I work in healthcare, I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to reliably commit to the pets I’m caring for. I make sure to dedicate quality time for visits, walks, and check-ins so pets aren’t rushed and receive my full attention. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I prioritize consistency, safety, and making sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can keep their environment as consistent and stress free as possible. This includes feeding schedules, fresh water, walks or litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely while giving pets companionship and reassurance while their family is away. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with supervision and structured routines so pets feel secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own!

“Dan and Vickie took such good care of Coco. I believe they are the best sitters I have ever used. Good communication and lots of pictures. I will definitely use them again and would recommend this couple to whoever is looking for a exceptional dog sitter”

“We are so happy we found Beth! We had a couple schedule changes and she was more than accommodating. We will be very happy to use her to watch our doggies whenever shes available!”

Robert G.

“Hachi was super excited to be back again! He’s already comfortable and being happily greeted by Lexi was wonderful. Pamela will love and care for your Fur baby. Hachi was happy to be back because he has so much fun there. Pamela captures your fur baby’s fun time and share those cute pictures with you. We will be back all the time now, since we found such a happy and loving place to board him when needed. Thank you Pamela!”

Anita V.

“Thank you Stephenie !! Great experience with our pet sitter! She kept us updated by sending pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Zoey was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend!”

Monica V.

“Katherine was great with our pup Sunny. She came home tired and worn out. I got pictures and updates regularly and she was quick to respond. Easy to communicate with about drop off and pick up! Would recommend!”

About: I’ve always grown up with many different kinds of animals from horses to dogs to bunnies. I have always been responsible for taking care of my own and family pets since I can remember. Some facts about me :) I am married and have two pets; a dog and cat. I love to bake, garden and swim. I am also an administrative assistant. I am available after work during the week, weekends and during lunch hours. I can provide meals, walks, potty breaks, play times and cuddles. Please reach out and ask any questions. 😊 My goal is to honor and glorify the Lord in all that I do and say. I believe in honesty, truth and love. I also believe that God has given humans a responsibility to be stewards to His creation, including animals (Genesis 1:26, Proverbs 12:10).

“OUTSTANDING!!!! We were so happy knowing that our dog was so well cared for. Michelle provided daily pictures and videos which made us so very happy knowing he was in good hands. He got more than enough exercise every day and just had a blast being there. We were afraid he wouldn't want to come home. Should we travel again we know where we want him to be and will definitely recommend Michelle to anyone we know who needs dog sitting services. We are just so very pleased and happy!!!!”

“I boarded my cat Libby for the very first time. I was very nervous about boarding/leaving her but I was gone too long to leave her alone. I found Lenore on Rover. After looking at several people which did not impress me, I found Lenore and immediately liked her profile. During the process of signing up, Lenore sent several messages asking about Libby. It made me feel like she really cared about animals. We left Libby with Lenore for 9 days. She texted with me and sent me pictures every day!! She showed so much love and care for her I was afraid Libby might want to stay! Lenore really does go above and beyond to take care of your fur babies! I could not be happier. Lenore made my holiday trip so enjoyable. I could relax knowing Libby was well cared for. I will definitely use her again and cannot recommend her enough!!!”

“Taylor was so kind and accommodating. She was so understanding when we needed the dogs boarded during our wedding. Taylor helped make our wedding day as stress-free as possible. We love you Taylor!”

“We used Rover and Frances for the first time. We scheduled a week long, twice day stop ovwr to fred our cat. A few days later, we scheduled a sleepover for our puppy as sort of a trial run.”

About: I have taken care of animas my whole life. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. Comfortable giving medications if they are needed. I am home all day Thursday through Sunday. The days that I do work, there is still time set aside for each pet after I arrive home. During the warmer weather, we typically spend lots of time outside. I have a fenced in yard. I do own 3 medium-large sized dogs that are great with other dogs. I do also have a cat and a toddler. I make sure that the toddler is never left alone with the animals. If I am doing drop by visits for pets, your home will be treated with respect and your pet will be taken care of appropriately.

“Diana was the best dog sitter ever!! She sent us a bunch of pictures and wrote sweet updates on what Ellie was up to for my son to read. She was so thoughtful, took Ellie on a ton of walks and loved her like she was her own dog. I highly recommended Diana and will use her again!”
