Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Leslie
Jeannette was the absolute best pet sitter anyone could ask for! She was communicative and easy going. She took very good care of the house, but most importantly she took superb care of my dog, Bodhi. She took him on long walks and fun adventures everyday. While I was out of the country, I received pictures and updates of their "vacation". I loved seeing Bodhi's and Jeannette's smiles in all the photos. They definitely bonded. :) I would highly recommend Jeannette as a pet sitter and also as an excellent person who cares about people, animals, and the planet.
Whittier
Abby was truly the best pet sitter we've ever had. We were never concerned or worried about the care of our pups and home. All the neighbors have told me that the dogs looked happy on the many walks. She sent videos of photos about every other day. We hope that Abby will stay in our home next summer as well. Abby is very highly recommended by our whole family, including the dogs!!!
Jan
Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.
Claire
I have nothing but great things to say about Jill! She’s a wonderful sitter and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her capable hands while I was out of the country. She was thorough in making sure she knew exactly what each pet needed, had excellent communication, and provided me with daily updates. I came home to a house that was even tidier and more organized than when I left and two very loved pets. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a kind, caring, consistent pet sitter. Thank you so much Jill!!!
Sneha
Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.
Nancy
Not only did our pets enjoy meeting Kelly and Christopher, my husband and I enjoyed meeting them as well! They are personable and kind, organized and communicative, and most of all excellent pet sitters. Kelly and Chris are attentive housesitters. They went out of their way to connect with our dogs, especially Smitty, our rescue. The dogs were walked, brushed, and played with throughout the weeklong sit. They sent pics of how our fur babies were doing and truly seemed to enjoy their time with them. The peace of mind that comes with great house sitters who care for your precious pups and the home you love is priceless. Thank you once again, Kelly and Christopher! We hope to see you again!
Caitlin
This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!
Sara
Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.
Tina
If you’re lucky enough to find Anna as your pet sitter you will have peace of mind and well cared for pets whilst you are away and a clean and tidy home on your return. Anna is thoughtful and kind, she arrived the evening before the sit which allowed for some time to hear about her interesting travels and work, kept me updated with fabulous photos and details of the friendship she was making with the cats and even took the trouble to fix a sticky catch on the cat flap. I can recommend her as a sitter without hesitation. Thank you Anna
Judith
Janis is absolutely the best pet sitter and home care we have had. She is a regular for us during our Christmas vacation because we totally trust her with the care of our three dogs and the management of our home. She is so good and efficient that I have already requested that she sits for us again next Christmas. Our three dogs absolutely adored her as she played fetch, took them on walks, loved and spoiled them. Management of our home was excellent. I had no concerns whatsoever as we had packages delivered and Mail that needed to be picked up. The house was in much better condition than what we left it. I highly recommend Janis and you will be fortunate to have her as your sitter.

A+++! Left my two dogs there this past weekend and they did wonderful! My one dog has a lot of anxiety, and the owner of the kennel made him feel at ease. Also sent me photos during their stay. Thank you for taking care of my fur babies!
We have been using "Like Our Own" kennel for the last 6 mos. (On and off) while we have been moving. Our dogs love it there and always return happy and well-cared for. I never have to worry about my pets' well being and it has eased my mind while I'm away from them.
What a hidden gem! Kari, Brad and her son Hunter truly care for and enjoy all the animals. We are just down the road from the kennel so when the sign popped up I made a call and asked to take a tour (I was nervous to leave my baby). Now, 3+ years later my Aussie, Nash, and my daughter two aussies, Moose and Maggie (the Aussie posse), spend several nights there a year. They eagerly jump out of the car to get to the door. They are even treated to gifts at the holidays and I can leave them knowing they are well taken care of. The kennels are clean with both air conditioning and heat. Day care is also an option, this is how I started trying it out.
Like our Own is so amazing with our pups!! This is the only kennel I will take my babies to. My little rescue pup is a very nervous and distrusting dog. She LOVES Kari and jumps right into her lap when we arrive!!!
My dog Atlas (German Shepherd) loves going to doggie daycare here! They are always accommodating to my early work schedule and will allow me early drop offs. They work to coordinate the best days for him to have the best playgroups and as soon as we pull in he can’t wait to get inside. Pickups are easy and flexible and loading him in the car is a challenge because he doesn’t want to leave. They take excellent care of him and I’m so thankful we found them! Best thing we did for Atlas!
We love Like Your Own Kennel! They are affordable and flexible for drop off/pick up times and last minute schedule changes. Our pup Sasha gets so excited when she sees Kari and has created friendships with other dogs! The socialization our pup is getting is so valuable and we appreciate it so much! 💗 We even get the cutest pictures while she’s there! 🐾
I absolutely love Like Our Own Kennel. Kari and Brad are amazing with my pups. My boy attends daycare there several days a week. They work with my schedule and let me know when his best doggie friends are going to be at the kennel. I love that he can get the exercise that German Shepards require even when I have to work all day. My dog knows the minute that we turn onto their road and gets so excited. I highly recommend Like Our Own Kennel. Hands down, it’s best kennel in the area!!!
Kari was so kind and helpful during a very last minute & chaotic trip to northern Michigan with my Boston Terrier, Butler. Just talking with her made me feel very confident & excited to let Butler try out a new boarding kennel for him. Thank you Kari for your help when I really needed it !
Thank you so much for taking care of our boy. I highy recommend this kennel. Not only are they friends but they genuinely care for the pets in their care. We will be going north in the near future and will definitely be booking a stay for Gunther again.
Very nice people and facility. They have indoor outdoor kennels and a nice grassy play area. Ours girls did very well here. We will be dropping of our boys and girls the next visit.

Rebecca is amazing! At our previous groomer we had our Golden Retriever shaved because she was always so hot. I told Rebecca I regretted it because her hair has never grown back the same. Rebecca not only listened to me, but she Educated me! She told me we would be able to get her hair back to the beautiful soft hair that it was with patience and a lot of hard work on her end. After picking Olivia up, she looked like a whole new dog! Her coat is extremely soft and beautiful and I’m so grateful for Rebecca and her hard work! We will definitely be back regularly!❤️
Rebecca and Amanda did an awesome job grooming my little Jackson, a 5 lb. Shih Tzu! They cut him just as I requested, and he looks so adorable and fluffy! I highly recommend!!!
We thought we try this place because they were close . She did a wonderful job on our 115 lb very anxious shepard/g Pyrenees mix . It was a quiet non chaotic environment. Perfect for anxious dogs . We will definitely return .
Took my Mini Bernedoodle for her first grooming and she looks fantastic!! Owner was very friendly and knowledgeable. Made her next appointment before we left.
I have been so happy about this pooch salon. Rebecca is the best. She’s absolutely amazing and very accommodating to your schedule. I think the biggest thing I like about her and her poochie salon is my Lucy comes home alert, awake and ready to play! Literally every other groomer we used, even other VERY local groomers, Lucy came back tired, lethargic, no appetite and no interest in playing. It honesty took a day or two for her to fully recover from grooming. It truly makes me wonder if they gave me any calming drugs before her grooming. 100% Wag’ Wagon for us! Absolutely love their service and will keep returning.
Best groomer in the area! My dog has never enjoyed herself more being groomed and coming out like a new dog. She was clean an dry and not sheeding like other grooms have left my dog before. Her ears where clean and nails where done. I could not be more satisfied 😌! This groomer will see me back and I hope you will check her out cause it's worth it!
This was the best grooming experience and my fur baby left so happy! The owner was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. She also was extremely kind and treated my dog as if he were her own. Could not recommend enough! If you are in the area and looking for a groomer this is the place to be. 😊😊😊 …
I was super happy with my Dr Lucille Poochenstien’s day at the groomers. They did an amazing job. Stand up place. We will for sure be returning with business. Lucy came home with such a better attitude and lots of energy. She’s come home pretty groggy and kinda tired from other groomers.
I love when I come to pick up my shih Tzu she is walking around waiting for me 🙂🙂 Rebecca does a nice job 😉 …
Rebecca is absolutely amazing! She does such a great job and our dog loves her. We really appreciate everything she does.
