Dog Boarding Pleasant Lake

About: Dogs have always been a part of our family, and caring for them is something we genuinely love. Over the past 15 years, we’ve shared our home with four dogs, including caring for three into their senior years through age-related and chronic health conditions. We’ve also raised a litter of puppies, giving us experience with young dogs and the extra patience, attention, and consistency they require. Because I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. We have a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our three dog-loving children have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. While we’re not looking to add another dog to our family permanently, we’d love to open our home to yours. Our goal is to provide a safe, loving, family environment where every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, allowing me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. Potty breaks, outdoor play, walks (if requested), feeding, medication, and plenty of affection are all easily incorporated into my schedule. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, so they won’t just be supervised—they’ll be part of our family’s day. Whether your pup loves to play, relax, or simply be near people, they’ll receive plenty of attention, companionship, and love while they’re with us. I also make it a priority to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for during their stay. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Because I work from home, your pet will have supervision and companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I take the time to learn each dog’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they can maintain the routine they’re used to at home. Our home has a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and all dogs are monitored while outside. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of affection, and I treat each guest as if they were one of my own. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take introductions slowly and always prioritize a calm, low-stress environment. Throughout your dog’s stay, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having a great time.

“Christine was wonderful with our dogs. Sent pics and videos, and updated us on how they were doing. We have one very outgoing pup and one very timid. She supported both needs, and that is hard to do sometimes. We have already re booked as Christine will be great at providing the stability that we need while we are away. Highly recommend!”

“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”

“Our dog, Fluff, had an great stay and was treated just like family while we were away. Fluff usually has a built-in radar for vets, groomers, and boarding facilities—he’s normally incredibly hesitant to leave the car when we arrive, and when we pick him up after a visit/stay, we typically get the 'stink-eye' and he can't get out the door and into the car soon enough. We didn't have any of those issues at Catherine’s place! He was completely relaxed, which tells us everything we need to know. I feel entirely at ease leaving Fluff with her again and plan to when we leave town again.”

“I love knowing Sarah is taking good care of our dog Basil when we go on vacation. I love that Basil gets an opportunity to socialize with other dogs while we're gone, also. Thank you, Sarah!”

“Kelly and Brandon are fantastic sitters - I couldn’t ask for them to do anything differently. My pup was safe, well cared for, and tired out by all the fun she was having.”

John J.

“Jennifer was a fantastic pet sitter! She send daily updates on how Maple was doing like sleeping on her lap ❤️, it was reassuring to read how much she and her family cared. Thanks so much for your kindness 😊”

“Karen was a wonderful boarder for our 3 year old, high energy “puppy”! We got daily pictures and updates. Her home is clean and dog friendly! Henry had a wonderful time! She even got him to eat during the week which usually doesn’t happen in our absence. We appreciate her care so we could visit family! THANK YOU!”

“Veronica was a great host for my Tess. She took great care of her. We will be returning customers.”

Jackie B.

“Fabulous sitter! She was quick to reply and took care of our babe last minute. She even went out of her way to drop him off for us, and waited 5-10 minutes extra due to our event not being done yet. HIGHLY recommend! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

KaSandra Marie P.

“Lily had a great time with Olivia. We were away over 2 weeks and could tell that Lily felt safe. We knew she was well cared for. Lily developed an ear infection and Olivia handled the vet and giving Lily her meds which isn’t the easiest thing to do. When picking Lily up she was happy to see me but still ran back to Olivia to say goodbye which is always a good thing. We definitely will have Lily stay with Olivia again!”

Patricia L.

“Kasey was amazing! She was so good with Buddy. I felt so comfortable leaving him. She has a perfect set up for the dogs. Her dogs were great with Buddy too even though they were much larger. They were very kind and gentle. She was great at sending pics and communication. I would highly recommend Kasey!”

Susan C.

“Lauren watched our dog over a holiday and made our vacation so much easier and more enjoyable! The updates and photos were so appreciated. I don’t think our sweet Ivy wants to leave her! We have never tried Rover because it was hard to find an affordable and trustworthy person - Lauren is it!!”

Carly B.

“I felt very confident leaving my dog with Jenny. She related well to him and took him for a walk and ent pictures. She was very easy to work with and I could tell she really liked my dog. I am so happy to have found such a great dog sitter!”

“Breita and her family did an amazing job watching over my puppy. Her house is like a luxury resort for dogs and I was kind of jealous that my dog got to stay there instead of me lol. Overall it was a great experience and would highly recommend Breita and her family to be your dog sitter.”

“It sounds like Hulk was a bit of a challenge being in a new surrounding. Katie did an amazing job despite the adversities. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who understands how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet. I currently have my own active Dalmatian, so daily walks, exercise, routines, and plenty of attention are already a big part of my life. I’ve also started building recurring Rover relationships and have experience with regular weekday walks and drop-in care. I’m comfortable following specific routines, handling energetic dogs, and adjusting walks or visits based on each dog’s personality and needs. I’m reliable, active, communicative, and treat every dog like I’d want someone to treat my own. I’m especially happy to work with repeat clients and become a familiar, trusted part of your dog’s routine. I work from home and would love to give my dalmatian, Bennie Mae, a walk with a new friend! Also, my schedule is very flexible. We have a dog-proof home with plenty of space to run and play. Nearby park with room to roam outside. Wonderful neighborhood to go on walks.

“Believe the dog whisperer bio!! Our bojji boo had a blast and learned a bit of manners along the way! We will definitely be back to board again!!”

About: I have a love for animals big and small. I enjoy exploring and making new experiences with animals. I have experience with elderly and medical needs animals. I work as a nanny and have sometimes weeks off and would love to have an animal to take care of and take places with me. I have a house with 13 acres, for dogs that are not recall trained I use a 10 ft leash and always make sure leases are on before the door opens. I have a separate room for my own animals that way if rabbits or cats are meet with aggression all animals will be safe.
