Dog Sitters in Omena, MI

Wiggle Butts and Waggin Tails gave our 7 month old Cavapoo the best place to stay this past weekend. We highly recommend their place. It was our puppy's first time boarding and they prepared us and our puppy on all the things to expect. Very clean and organized facility. You will not be disappointed by their hospitality for you pet. We will definitely be back.

Brought my little Frenchie here. Discussed with owners on the phone the dogs age and sent them all the paper work from our vet which listed each and every vaccine he had. Was told there was no issue with bringing him in for 4 days. Went on vacation and got a text the next morning, after having driven 6 hrs away, that they weren't equipped to handle our dog because he wasn't old enough to board there. I had to pack my family up and head home to pick him up. Wasted $2500 in lodging for our vacation. WARNING.... NOT RECOMMENDED.

This was our first time boarding dogs ever. We have two cattle dogs, both young & FULL of energy. The staff at Wiggle Butts was so beyond fantastic with them. They sent us photos and kept us updated. They gave them their medications as directed. They also followed directions to keep our dogs together at all times because they are highly anxious otherwise. This is an affordable, clean, and trustworthy boarding facility. 10/10 will use again. Thank you guys!!

Kathy and Dave were amazing! We went on vacation up North and found Wiggle Butts and Wagging tails online as we wanted to have our 2 year old dog close to us. Chloe was well taken care of and happy when we picked her up. Kathy was quick at responding emails before and during her stay. Love that they have a large outdoor area that dogs can play and enjoy the outdoors. We will be retuning here next time we have a vacation up North!

Kathy and Dave are very personable! I trust them with my 1 year old Golden doodle. He loves going to doggy daycare at their facility! I would recommend them to anyone.

Dave and Kathy are SO kind and they’re great with animals. My little dog loves coming here to spend time with them and the other dogs. They’ve really made a special connection with her and with my family. This is the only place we board her because I know she’ll be well taken care of. They have great rates as well and are very flexible.

Kathy and Dave did a GREAT job helping my kennel-averse rescue acclimate to their place by having her do several short day care stints before she boarded there for several nights. They even texted an update while we were gone. My pup was happy, well cared for, and is still excited when we drive up. What's more, their location is convenient, clean, well organized and a great value. HIGHLY recommend!

Dave and Kathy greeted us and our dogs with open arms as soon as we arrived. Very clean, neat, and organized dog boarding! I could tell they were animal lovers as soon they walked us back. Dave set out some blankets for our pups to borrow while they stayed. We will DEF be using Wiggle Butts and Wagin Tails again next year. Very happy.

My dog, Bruce, loves coming here; and I love it because when I pick him up at the end of the day, he is TIRED. Dave and Kathy are the sweetest people. There is always the perfect amount of pups for him to play with. Great for socialization as well as exercise! Pick-ups and drop offs are easy and fast. They are by far the most flexible with pick up/drop off times for any place in the area, which makes it great for working dog owners who may need to work earlier/later than typical 9-5 work hours. I can't recommend Wiggle Butts and Waggin Tails enough! If you're looking for doggy day care or a place to board your dog, look no further.

I boarded my two mini Dachshunds over Thanksgiving. We all had a great experience! The kennel is new and well designed and the owner (who live on the property) are very patient and loving to their guests. I called several times and they texted me pictures, they reassured me many times my furbabies were fine. I will definitely use their services again. I highly recommend this lovely facility .

Ellie is the 2nd generation of my family to enjoy her time at SunDog, as my Yogi did years ago! She loves to run and play in the big yards with old and new friends, and the fact she isn’t in a kennel run for 23 hours a day. As a retired owner/operator of a pet sitting business, I appreciate Allison’s attention to detail on my picky feeding prep😉. And she goes above and beyond on numerous occasions. Will never forget her bringing Ellie to visit me at the rehab facility, on Mother’s Day, as I recovered from spinal surgery❤️ Dogs that go to SunDog camp are happy, luck dogs!!

Cash is proud to be part of the Sun Dog family. Allison is genuinely interested in his well being. Her breath of knowledge and experience makes us very comfortable boarding Cash there during our trips out of town. She always takes time to chat with us about his stay before and after and has been helpful in making us better Aussie owners.

I'm pretty sure my dog enjoys being at camp with Allison more than she enjoys being home. Leaving my dog for 2 weeks was easy, since I knew she'd be so well cared for, and that she'd have a blast playing with her friends at camp.

Sundog is the best home away from home for our dogs. All of the dogs love Allison, and so do we.

I can't imagine anyone else caring for my fur babies. I like to tell friends that Allison takes better care of them than I do. :) She is so accommodating and thoughtful and always has the dogs' best interest in mind. She is also super giving to the canine community and just a great person! I appreciate her so much!

I am so grateful to have Sun Dog Kennel and the owner Allison in our life. We have 2 dogs and have been using this kennel for years. I never have to worry about my dogs when we are away as they have sincere and expert care, a beautiful facility, lots of outside space and a great deal of personal attention. We’ve had nothing but professional and positive experiences with Sun Dog Kennel, and it is the best kennel we have ever had! Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

I have always had great experience with SunDog Kennel! My Charlie is a super shy boy and would really just prefer to cuddle at your feet instead of wrestling around with other doggos. Allison has always been extremely understanding and accommodating. She allows Charlie to sort of hang by himself and do his own thing when its play time outside, and even lets him hang out with her in the office so he can get some of the human interaction that he craves. Thank you as always for being amazing and for taking the extra time to make not only Charlie, but myself feel comfortable when I drop off my best friend.

Sundog boarding kennel is like no other. It is like sending your dog over to your best friends house for a week of sleep overs. Allison has a personal connection with every client. That said- I mean the canine clients! The dogs are not crated. Though she does have several crates near the front door in the office. These are for current pick ups or drop offs. Making sure Nobody gets out due to an open door. She has 2 large fenced in areas. One for the big Dogs and for for the Little’s. I happen to have a little dog who thinks he’s a big do so he plays over there. She has couches ...just for Dogs. Allisons attention to detail with all the dogs in her care is amazing. She truly is a dog person. She spends her time exercising and socializing the dogs with each other. Now because of how she spends her time during the day... with the Dogs. She is not sitting by the phone or the computer. Most likely she is outside throwing a ball, She is a one woman show with a life outside of her business. She communicates via text or email. You must bring your dog over for a pre visit. She is pretty thorough about what she expects in dog behavior. I believe that once you are a client you are well taken care of. The problem is getting her away from her passion ... the Dogs. But once you have ....you will not be disappointed. If you are looking for a commercial kennel with an office staff and dog walkers this probably is not the place for you. This is DOGTOWN!

Emailed, texted and called. Received a complimentary email telling me that I would hear from them soon... a day and a half later I get a text explaining that they were out of town and asking me for my dog’s information and experience with boarding. I write back with the information and a couple of pictures, a day and a half later, still no response. Good thing I took the precaution of making arrangements somewhere else after the first 24 hours!!! The terse message at Sun Dog says that dogs are her first priority, but I am the one writing the check and how I’m treated tells me how my dog will be treated. Clearly other people have had great success there, but I think she also has a reputation for not responding well, as quite by chance I talked with someone else who had the same problem. Maybe you’ll have better luck if you have the time to wait a week to make an appointment.

I bet they are great with dogs but good luck with getting a hold of them. I had our dog care back out last minute and I called and texted to no avail. They texted to let me know they were busy watching the dogs and that was it for 2 days. A simple "we're full" would have been acceptable. But instead I was ghosted.

Beau has stayed at Bokhara many times and they are wonderful with him. He’s always well cared for and happy. He started going at 7 months and they were so sweet and good with him. I highly recommend and I won’t use anywhere else!

We had our dog recently banned from Bokhara for, what I feel, is the fault of their new groomer. We’ve had our dog groomed there by Ellen for six years and never had an issue. Ellen retired and the groomer they have now has been out of the business for a while or something, but whatever she did made my dog anxious and he attacked. NEVER had that issue with Ellen. So, they said he’s welcome to board there? Sorry, too many finer establishments in the area. Stay away. (I can’t post without a 1-star rating, but I wouldn’t even give them that.)

Our pup had an amazing stay at Bokhara! We loved that she was greeted the moment we walked in, they were waiting for her! Erika made us feel so warm and welcome. After checking Ellie for temperament, we were shown Ellie's "room" and were able to set her up and get her comfortable. We were able to see much of the facility, and all our questions were answered. Ellie got walks every day and we were even invited to take her to the lake when we picked her up. Ellie showed us right where to go. She was so comfortable there and looked really happy and content when we picked her up. I called once to check on her and all my questions were answered and I was told Ellie was eating well and visiting. I'm so pleased with Bokhara and look forward when we can visit again!

Excellent kennel. Just pulling in the driveway you will realize that your dog will have their own resort while up north. The pine trees along the drive way will have dog name crossings, and once you pull up you will find a friendly staff ready to give your dog attention that you will feel comfortable with. There are a list of options to pamper your dog including access to Elk Lake for a swim, or even check out your pet by boat while on Elk, or the other Chain of Lakes. Our dog is a medium to small dog and had made friends with the other dogs while there. Be sure to have your pets vet records ready. Will have our dog stay there again the next time we are in the area! Rates cheaper than hotel dog rates.

Thank you Erika so much for taking such good care of George and Charlie!! We really appreciate the excellent care and spa treatment you provided. Georgie has never been so clean and fresh! Even Charlie was happy to visit you!! We'll be back again for sure!! Thanks soooo much!!

Took my cats there for a week got them back covered in feces, and we're obviously traumatized, I would never take my pet to this place again

We've been boarding our Rhodesian Ridgeback here for about 4 years and have had nothing but good experiences. Staff are really friendly and I like the grooming options as well as the additional play time/walk options.

Fantastic cat boarding service. Boarded my kitty here for several weeks and it was a great experience. All staff including the owner are extremely kind people.

Our gsd puppy went for her first grooming with her sister. The staff was super accommodating in letting them stay togather. They came back looking and smelling great.

Nice drive. Nicest lady ever!!! My dog is just beautiful!! I Found my new groomer.

Hands down the best pet sitter I have ever known. Ellen takes great care with my dog and I have complete confidence leaving her with Ellen for a day, overnight, and beyond. This is saying a lot, because I am super picky about entrusting my "baby" to anyone. As another reviewer wrote, Ellen sends me pictures, which are so much appreciated. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Ellen is the best. Taking your dog to Ellen is like going to the ANTI-KENNEL. Instead of cold, concrete floors and cages, she keeps the dogs with her in her beautiful and very clean home. It's the best possible experience for your pet. We wouldn't take our dog to anyone else.

Reliable dependable dogs kept inside in a loving environment. I never have to worry. Ellen will even send you pictures while you're away on vacation so you can rest at ease.

The best place you will ever fine,for taking care of your love one!!
