Dog Sitters in Volinia, MI

I cannot recommend Whispering Pines enough. It is evident that they care about the animals they are watching. My rottie loves Emerson to bits and it shows every day when I bring her. I know she is well looked after and they take seriously any and all concerns I have raised for my pooch. Even when we had issues with my dog eating fluffy toys while at day care I knew that they really did start keeping a closer eye on her and the toys she had to play with, unlike other day cares I have tried in the area. Competitive prices, and the best care.

Left our 2 babies for 3 days. Staff was amazing, kennel was clean and dogs seemed well cared for. They post pictures on there fb page daily, which is nice. I would highly recommend. We will be using Whispering Pines in the future.

My dog absolutely loved his time here. no issues whatsoever, he came home happy, smelling good, and it was like nothing changed. proves there are great doggie hotels out here!!!

Have boarded my dog here a few times and daycare several times. Highly recommend. One of the only places with in/out kennels and plenty of room in their own kennel in addition to the big yard. The people are friendly and my dog loves it here!

I boarded my dog at Whispering Pines for 2 nights. It was a last minute arrangement and I was so happy to be able to get her a spot. She is very skittish but seemed to do well there, and she got to be outside to interact with other dogs, which she loves. I will be using them from now on, hopefully.

I have been taking my two large dogs here for about a year. I leave for work from 2-4 weeks at a time every couple months. My dogs are always happy and ready to go as soon as we pull into the drive. Friendly staff and I couldn’t be happier.

They always take great care of our dog, Lily. She is very shy and anxious but she quickly learned to love whispering pines as her “hotel” for when we are out of town.

We have placed our pets here whenever we need to travel and they never let us down. Whispering pines dog Kennel is the perfect place for your pets because they are professional yet friendly and they really do a great job of taking care of your pets. Also their prices are just right , Thank you Whispering Pines.. see you soon. The Barnes

My dog Tyson has had some issues at other kennels. He needs lots of love and attention and he gets all of that at Whispering Pines. I will never take him anywhere else. You guys are awesome. Thanks for taking such great care of my puppy.

We have been boarding our two dogs At Whispering Pines for more than 10 years. Every time we drive down the road to the kennel, my dogs are enthusiastically waging their tails and whimpering in excitement. They are so happy to see their second family! I cannot say enough about how well cared for my dogs are while boarding here.

Cheryl runs a wonderful kennel! We have used her kennel many times now and have been very pleased with it!

Kind, friendly, and accommodating! Our rescue dog is unsure of strangers, but she has never had an issue staying at Dogwood Kennels and they take great care of her. Have never left her anywhere else.

We love this kennel: they took great care of our senior dog! Friendly owner and a great value considering the quality of service!

Great experience boarding our Shiba Inu here. Clean & well maintained facilities.

Fair prices, have had my 1 yr old German shepherd here several times. No problems, seems to be treated well while I am gone.

My dog was clean, healthy, and happy when picked up after a short stay. Owners were friendly and knowledgeable.

We used this place many times until our dog Romeo passed away .. great service !

Great service! We'll be back soon.

She treated my dogs like family. I highly recommend this boarding service ❤

My wife and I own the business. She is the manager and I'm in charge of maintenance. 25 years in business and still improving.

We’ve been using Happy Paws Pet Sitting for the past several years when we travel, and couldn’t be happier with the care Jennifer provides to our 2 dogs. The girls adore her and it’s pretty obvious that she adores them too! Not only does she make sure our dogs have food and water, she spends quality time with them and provides plenty of hugs and playtime. Jennifer even takes short videos of each visit and sends them to us via text. We highly recommend Happy Paws Pet Sitting and can’t imagine leaving our pets with anyone else!

Jen has been pet sitting my pets for the last 3 years. I have a mastiff mix (over 100lbs) and several cats, and she provides each of my babies with individual and excellent care. Jen has also given my pets medication while pet-sitting with no issues. My pets love having her over, and she won over my skittish cat who doesn’t like anyone. I get text and/or video updates at every visit. I would trust my pets with no one else.

Jen has been our pet sitter for several years. She always does a fantastic job. She takes care of our 3 cats and 2 rabbits. She is dependable, truthworthy, and goes above what is expected. We love receiving her videos while we are gone on vacation. She is the best!!!

I’m so glad we found happy paws pet sitting! My dog is a senior dog and is now set in her routines. She typically won’t eat when we go away BUT she will eat for Jennifer! Sometimes more than she eats for me! Jennifer takes the time to send me videos so I can see she is doing well and in addition to just the basics (taking her out and feeding her) she shows her affection and sits and spends time with her as well. It’s so nice to not be stressed about your pet when you can’t be there. I definitely recommend happy paws pet sitting.

Jennifer is our absolute go to for taking care of our three cats. The pictures and videos of her playing with and caring for them are the best part, and it helps so much that she keeps the toys, litter, etc so clean and tidy so we do not need to stress when we return from our trips. It gives us such peace of mind that she has close connections with our local vet and they highly recommend her. She would be at the top of our list for anyone looking for pet sitting in the area!

Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and chickens. She took the time to send pictures and videos which made me confident our sweet dog was doing great. I highly recommend Happy Paws!

Jennifer from Happy Tails Pet Sitting is a Godsend. My 8 year old pup isn't good with strangers. She is so patient and won him over in 2 short visits. Jen goes above and beyond to keep our pup happy and safe. We get text updates and videos. I don't think I've ever been this confident in leaving him, I'm 4 hours away via plane.

BEST cat sitter ever! Jennifer has loved and cared for our Buggins multiple times now, and she has been perfect! Gone multiple days? Not a problem. Take that vacation or that needed time away without any worry! Jennifer is consistent, understanding, goes the extra mile, and really loves and cares for your fur baby like her own.

Let’s put it this way, I think Jennifer is better with my pup than I am!! I trust her 100% and know my sweet pup is cared for and loved on. I travel often and feel that I have someone amazing I can rely on to care for my 4 legged family member. So grateful I found her!!!! Thank you!!! 🥰🐾 …

I am so grateful we found Jennifer to care for our cats whenever we are out of town. She cares for them as if they were her own. She sends us cute little check in videos and brings toys the cats love. You will not find anyone better to care for your pets!

Mariesa has provided top quality care to my cat, Little Miss, whenever I was out of town. She developed a natural bond with her and I felt safe leaving them together! I would recommend Mariesa for cat sitting because of how quickly my cat warmed up to Miss who is a skittish and an old cat that doesn’t like strangers. She is truly an animal’s best friend!!

Mariesa is the best with your animals. She loves and cares for them like they’re her very own. She is seriously the “dog whisperer.” She helped me find my puppy and helped train her and she’s the sweetest, most well-behaved dog! Hire her! Harbor hounds is the best!

Mariesa has been amazing with our puppy. With our busy schedule, she has been a great help with the walks and even has given us some pointers on basic behavior training. She really seems to know her stuff! St Joe is fortunate to have her.

I've been bringing my dog to Welcott Farm for over 3 years & she loves it there! It's her "home away from home." The owner & the staff are knowledgeable & caring.

Thank you Jeff and team for providing such exceptional care for Lucy while we were on vacation! Welcott Farm is the BEST and the ONLY boarding facility for our beloved rescue dog! Lucy had a pawsome time making new friends and she enjoyed the snuggles from the staff!

We brought our rescue dog, Lucy, to Welcott Farm for boarding while we traveled out of the country. We received updates from Jeff and team and were happy to hear that Lucy was making new friends including Anton! Lucy had lots of play time and snuggles with the staff. Welcott Farm was accommodating with Lucy's meal requirements and we picked her up freshly bathed. They were sad to see Lucy go but knew that we would bring her back for her next adventure. The staff was nothing short of AMAZING! Thank you Jeff and team for the exceptional care of Lucy who means the world to us!

Tim and Jeff watched our puppy, Stevie, while on vacation for 10 days. We were very nervous about leaving her with anyone for this time. When I dropped her off, they were so reassuring that they had it under control and would take great care of her, which they did. They sent us photos of her almost daily and took great care of her. Stevie made some great dog friends there and I'm sure she can't wait to get back. Thanks guys!

Unbelievable puppy/dog retreat! My puppy Siku has been going here since 8 weeks old (now 6 months) and she loves the owners, staff and experience she has at Welcott Farm!

We used their doggy daycare while vacationing in the area and had a wonderful experience. They were quick to respond to my message and able to accommodate our dog the next day. The facility is beautiful, clean and organized. The drop off and pick up was a breeze and our puppy was very happy and tired at the end of her play date. We wish this facility was near our home. We would be regulars. Thanks for taking such good care of our dog and allowing us to leave her with peace of mind.

Welcott is such an amazing place for our dogs to play and expend some of that terrier energy. The facility is stunning with a great outdoor space and pristine interiors. It is only equal to the time, care and kindness provided by Jeff and his team. We are beyond thrilled to have Welcott in the area. Their commitment to rescues like ours also makes it a pleasure to bring our dogs there. Highly recommended.

Welcott Farm is an amazing property and our dogs Wolfe and Indi love going there! We we're so happy to find a doggy daycare and boarding facility with nice outdoor spaces for the dogs. Jeff and Tim are very accommodating and responsive. You know you're fur babies are well cared for.

We just adopted a 2-year-old shelter dog who is still trying to adjust. She's only been there two days for doggie daycare and you can already tell the difference, I was amazed and grateful to see her running around the yard with about 10 other dogs. Nice people, I highly recommend.

This place is fantastic! We were in from out of town and decided to give Welcott Farm a call to see if our pooch, Chuck, could come out for a few hours to burn some energy. After we sent over his vet records, they called us back and we brought him out. Chuck was so happy, and so tired, when we picked him up. We decided, on our short commute from the farm back to where we were staying, to take him back there two more times. It's clean, they have space for the dogs to run and plenty of other dogs to run around with.

Fantastic boarding and daycare facility. I can tell by the way our pup reacts to the technicians when we drop her off that she is very well cared for. Available webcams allow you to check in during the day if you want - a nice feature. The only downside is that after a long day of play, she returns with the dirt to show for it. But that's a trade I gladly make.

Took our dogs there twice… first experience was horrible. We checked our dogs in and went about our day. We went to pick them up and was told there was an issue. They lost our information and didn’t know who the dogs belonged to. They sat in a room all day because they didn’t take a copy of their shots even after we told them we were new. We figured mistakes can happen and didn’t want to let one bad experience ruin it. So we tried one more time. After my boyfriend dropped them off I checked their dog cameras to see how they were adjusting. I noticed one of my dogs was in a kennel outdoors in the 22 degree weather. I didn’t pack her coat because it’s an indoor/outdoor facility. I called and asked if something happened and why she was in the kennel, I was told they were “separating the dogs” because they had more than expected dropped off for the day. Our NON-WINTER dog was left in that cage for an hour. They let her out after an hour and within maybe 20 minutes of playing outside she was placed back in a different outdoor kennel. I turned off the camera and decided when I was able to leave and go get her I would. I unfortunately couldn’t get her until after noon. We got a call a bit later stating that she was then in time out for being “aggressive”. We ended up picking her up because I wasn’t paying for her to be in a kennel all day. This dog has never been aggressive but she is a puppy that is full of energy and plays hard. I asked to speak with a manager to see what happened because it was unlike her. She has attended a different day care many times. She couldn’t tell me what happened other than when a dog tried to play she would show teeth and her hair stood. With not being able to see the interactions, I don’t truly know what caused those reactions. When I asked about her being locked in a kennel outdoors for an hour at one time, she said that wasn’t true. I advised her that was false because I watched the camera and had even called. We have photos of our dog locked up. I will not be returning and I’ll drive 30 minutes to a place that can properly look after my dogs.

Our dogs had an overnight, first away from home, and their stay was wonderful, from my perspective anyway. Being able to check-in on the fur babies via the webcam made me feel more at-ease. They didn’t seem stressed, which brings me to the best part of their stay…the staff. I knew my babies were in good hands after having a quick tour before our scheduled stay. Everyone we ran into greeted the dogs with smiles and my more outgoing dog wanted to hug all of them, and he did. The facility has plenty of space. The dogs are in suites instead of kennels, everything seemed more “home adjacent” than boarding kennel.

We love Bunk & Biscuit! Our new puppy, Arrow, just finished the training academy. She learned so much and received such wonderful love and structure in their care. Arrow experienced her very first daycare day last week, where she had the time of her life and was absolutely exhausted by the time she came home! We can't wait for more daycare days and grooming opportunities! Our family absolutely recommends Bunk &, Biscuit for all of your training, socializing, and playtime needs!

Amazing clean facility, great trustworthy respectful staff and fantastic owners. Great for long or short term needs. Also has a doggy pool, do dog grooming and dog training. This place has it all and more than you would expect with live feed cams of your dogs and even TVs in the individual boarding rooms. You and your pet will both leave smiling. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the utmost highest care.

Bunk & Biscuit is the best! We take Nova there for daycare or boarding when she can't go with us and love to check the webcams to see her playing with the other dogs and the staff. For a little extra, she gets a nature walk, a holiday meal or a nail trim. When we pick her up, they give us a handwritten report about her stay that tells us about the friends she made and what she seemed to enjoy the most, etc. I always know she's in good hands when we drop her off.

My 2 GSD were boarded here for 5 days. No cages, their suite was big enough for both dogs, and they had a comfy bed to lay on. I really like that they have web cams, and I could see my dogs at different times. We got them groomed on the day we picked them up and they looked and smelled great. I would definitely use them again. The two dogs in question 😁

B&B is an awesome place. Everyone is friendly to the pet owners. Scout loves going to stay there. Has been boarded there since he was a puppy 2016. Very pleased with all his stays.

We love taking our dog, Ahsoka to Bunk and Buscuit for daycare! She loves going and making new friends and we love when she come home tired from all the playing. I love being able to watch her one the camera and seeing her run around having fun. I love the fact that they open at 7AM and pick up is around 6PM, it’s very convenient. I appreciate all the things they have out for her to play with!

Our pup, Brontë absolutely loves his two days a week at daycare. Every morning while mom and dad are getting ready he watches us wondering whether today is the day he gets to go play with his friends and the moment we pull out his leash he loses his mind. The moment we turn into the drive he starts to whine to get out of the car. This makes us so happy to know he is happy and WELL taken care of while he is in Bunk and Biscuits care. The nights that he comes home from daycare, he is thoroughly worn out and we couldn’t be happier. If we could take him everyday we would.

I fully trust bringing my dogs here. They are so flexible with us and handle my 2 gigantic dogs and all their needs so well! My dogs come back happy and smelling clean (unlike others where they smell like “kennel”) Reasonably priced- rates increase during holidays which is to be expected. My guys have been featured a few times on their social; and I love the updates they’ve made to their facility!

At the moment I can't give Derspinna a true rating. I have been looking for a kennel to board my girl and so far this kennel looks to be better than others I've researched in the area . Day care looks like the dogs are treated very well.

Expensive compared to Indianapolis where we used to live (but it’s a limited industry here) and they take great care of our huge horse of a dog every time we travel. We feel confident leaving him with them and know he’s in good hands. I do wish they had free updates for families (texted photos or something) of the dog’s wellbeing during longer trips. It’d be nice to get a check in every few days without having to pay extra for that- even if it was just some group photos on their socials. (Our dog never seems to be in those!)

Everyone was so nice. My dog will be going there again. She has never been in a doggy daycare/boarding setting. She needs more exposure to get used to it

Our pups love coming to Derspinna Kennels for spa days (grooming sessions) and overnight stays while we are out of town. Derspinna's has become their home away from home. And we always know that our furry family members are well cared for.

Love this wonderful place! It's like a fancy country estate spa for your furry little friends!!! When we first boarded our two doggies, we fell in love with the Derspinna. It totally reminds me of the "Henderson Castle" but for pets. Lol Top notch service and care! We will be going back for sure!!!

First time using Derspinna Kennels and found the kennels very clean and well maintained. Staff were friendly caring. Our two black doodles were in great shape and blended into the routine schedule their just fine.

Our dog is a shelter dog who has a history of trauma, with severe separation anxiety which he is medicated for, and struggles in kennels. We were worried about finding a place to board him on short notice with his situation. We dropped him off, with his food, medications, added some extra nature walks and asked them 'if they could clip his nails, it would be great'. He is terrified of it, and we were worried he would need to be sedated for it to be done. We nervously went out of town hoping for the best. Upon coming to pick him up a week later, we have never seen him happier coming out of a kennel! He was excited, in great health and we could just tell how much fun he had at Derspinna. Playing with other dogs, and nature walks did him well! Not only that, but they also were able to get his nails cut! Absolutely amazing. We will always be taking our dog back here! Couldn't recommend them more.

Two years in and still the best kennel I've taken my dog to. Never seen him more excited to go to a kennel

I am grateful for their care of our furry loves while we were away. They took great care as our puppies require some extra TLC with their grooming & behaviors. Thank you!!!

Lia is absolutely lovely. For the past 4 years, I have been going to her for our dogs’ grooming and boarding. I love that my dogs do not need to be in a kennel. She treats my dogs just like in my home environment! Highly recommended her services.

My puppy absolutely loved his grooming experience there. Happy puppy happy mom of puppy.

Lia is the ABSOLUTE best when it comes to taking care of older dogs. Our Vinnie was a 15 1/2 year old Pug. Lia made the last few weeks of his life amazing. He loved going to her place. She loved on him as if he was her own. I would highly recommend Pawsitively Lovely for doggie day care and for boarding and for grooming. I have used her for all of these things. She has groomed our dogs for years. She is a top notch groomer. Her heart is as big as they come.

Our dog, Kozmo stays with Lia when we have to be gone and can't take him with. He is well taken care of and I wouldn't dream of taking him anywhere else. He gets so excited when we pull up he can hardly contain himself! He gives her all paws up 🐾

Great service, and our Tofu loves going for her grooming. And Pawsitively Lovely is the only place we leave our dog when we travel.

Lia is super nice and a a always taken perfect care of our puppy - grooming to sitting.

She grooms my dog and he’s scared of everything , she is so great with him an makes it easy on him . She has been grooming him for years . Great place

She is so wonderful!

Great little place.
