Chelly
Bay View, Michigan
Clean, caring, non-smoking animal lover
Chelly took excellent care of our two long-haired cats. She was very kind and organized both prior to and during the sit. Chelly sent daily updates of the cats, played and brushed them, and kept our home clean. We’d highly recommend Chelly and welcome her back anytime!

Bay View, Michigan
Fun Furrogate Parents
Lynn and Jeff are the very best of zeewoi, my only regret is that we didn’t stay home to spend more time with them. They are kind, open, warm, straightforward people you will want as friends and neighbors; who love life, pets, homes, and new people as much as we do. They did break one rule: they left our house cleaner than they found it! Considering all the dead critter gifts our kitties brought them that was a big effort. I’m so grateful we crossed paths with this wonderful couple.
Joni
Bay View, Michigan
Older Gal would love to make your furry family part of mine
Joni is a wonderful pet sitter. She came by our house before the pet sit to go over all of the particulars about our house. She made quick friends with our shy kitty. She kept me updated and when we returned home- our house looked like it had been professionally cleaned! I would not hesitate to have Joni sit for us again! Thankyou Joni!
Desiree
Bay View, Michigan
Remote worker looking to spend unique times w/your pets and home
This was my first time using zeewoi and I could not be more impressed with Desiree's services. She did an amazing job at taking care of my cat Mimi and my apartment while I was gone and I came back to my place cleaner than I left it and my cat happy and in good health. Desiree did an excellent job at communicating with me and frequently sent me pictures to ensure my cat was doing well. I was initially worried about leaving my cat with someone else while I was out of the country but I got SO lucky finding the most caring and kind person! Would highly recommend to anyone and I would definitely use her services again.
Janet
Bay View, Michigan
Experienced House Sitters Who will Care For Your home and Pets
Janet did a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my home while I was gone for almost a month. She kept me posted regularly and responded quickly to a couple of requests I had to make while traveling. She is flexible and very reliable and I would definitely welcome her back to my home whenever she is available.
Cynthia
Bay View, Michigan
Active Traveling Retired Couple / Animal-Lovers
Great sitters - who were very nice to clean all the sheets and towels, and clean before I arrived from my month abroad.
Steele
Bay View, Michigan
Open-minded, compassionate, loving pet-sitter
I would invite Steele back anytime. He was communicative, reliable, friendly, and conscientious of my dog and cat’s needs. He took great care of my home too, I came back to it just as I left it. He also left a very sweet note and little parting gifts for me and the fur babies! So sweet.
Dawn
Bay View, Michigan
Retired college staff seeks East Coast travel (Nov-April), min 1 week.
Dawn was timely, helpful, left my home clean and neat, including washing and replacing all sheets and towels used b6 her. She sent daily pictures of her with my cat. My cat was so happy with Dawn that he has been sleeping on the bed she used instead of with me! Dawn was also very flexible about me returning a day early due to weather. I would use her again.

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Meghan
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
Jessica
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Nancy
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Thea
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Mary & Shane
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Monica
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Kaori
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)

If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!

This place was Tremendous!!!! They took great care of our kittycat, Matchka who was fighting mammary gland cancer. The woman who was running things was an Angel and let us visit her every morning. Matchka hissed at her & everyone else but this amazing woman lived Matchka regardless and took extra special care of her. I would recommend this place to everyone. Matchka had a better view than we did at our resort because she had a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan out her gigantic window.
The ownership and staff is so friendly and the best part is my dogs love to be boarded here! My dogs literally pull me into the facility at drop off.
Love 😘 my daisy always get good care what a difference Marianne is the best …
They take great care of your pet. They love our pup and he is always in great shape when we pick him up. They do very well with pets who need medication and a little extra TLC. He loves this place!
Staff here are wonderful with the animals and spend a bit of time with each pet that is staying at their resort. The layout of the facility is great, insofar as when a cat comes in for a stay, s/he doesn't have to be taken past any barking dogs to get to her/his boarding area and vice versa. My cat was a guest here for about a week and I had an opportunity to go in to visit with her. The cat room was quiet and peaceful and the spaces were large and luxurious.
Easy to spot off of the highway. Plenty of parking and the owners do a very good job of keep spots open and snow and ice plowing in the winter. There are some very lively birds when you enter, as well as a few different knick-knacks to buy. Reasonable prices on these, but their bathing prices cannot be beat. My dog is always clean and fresh and a ton of hair removed from him. They send him off in a handsome little bandana and we keep coming back! I highly recommend this place! Very friendly staff and their work is wonderful!
I go to Walmart every 2 weeks. With the remodeling it has been talking a little longer. Hopefully they will be done soon. Then we will get more used to it.
My Lacie girl loves it. Susan and Gail spoil her.
Good place to board when going out of town for a few days. They are comfortable boarding Birds as well as cats and dogs, so that was a big plus for me. Right across the parking lot is a veterinarian's office so if you had an emergency there you'd be in luck.
What I like about this place is that my dog loves it. When I leave him it makes me feel better that I know he's in a great spot with people who really enjoy him. It seems to be more than just a job with all the people here and it shows.

Our girls just came home from getting groomed and the owner did an exceptional job. We are so pleased with their cuts and will definitely schedule again, when we are here next summer. Thank you very much.
We have been taking our bear to wags and purrs since he was a puppy… 4 years now and he is always happy when he has a fresh haircut! The owner treats him well, gets us in everytime and her work is amazing! Highly recommended groomers!
I took my Golden Doodle in for a much needed haircut. I was very impressed with their job on her. She looked totally different but happy. We will take her back when she is ready for her next trim. Thank you very much.
Sometimes you I'll get a recording when you call. I just drove over with my pups for a last minute nail trim when I had time off and was able to walk in on a Tuesday. They will also schedule nail trims on Saturday. Very nice folks.
They took great care of my baby and made him presentable again. They’ll definitely be my go-to for dog grooming and boarding.
It was my puppy's first grooming and they did a fantastic job! Reasonably priced too. Will go back.
This was the first time we boarded a pet. Affordable, clean, and friendly. Definitely can recommend them.
My experience is always excellent. Always try to work you in if possible. My dog Sasha is never afraid to go, they are so gentle with her. She is a tea cup Yorkie with a bad hip. I live in Alpena and drive to Petoskey to have her groomed and they are worth the drive to take her there.
We can't thank them enough for always taking great care of our dog's (and of course, us). We get our dog's hair and nails trimmed and they come out looking great everytime. Always on time, always great service and would highly recommend.
I looked at a lot of reviews, but wags and purrs had the best reviews. My pooches looked and I'm sure felt better. I told her about the special needs of my elder pups. She took great care and my pups are very happy now. Thank you so much. I definitely will be back.

We took our dogs to Kennel 31’s Doggie daycare for the first time about a month or so ago, since that day we have taken our Border Collie/Spaniel/Mix Wrigley back at least 10-15 times and it has been an awesome experience every single time. As you can see from the pictures Wrigley absolutely loves going to day care to run and play with all his friends, and when he gets home he can barely keep his eyes open long enough to make it onto the couch! They truly take great care of all the dogs during their stay, and you can tell by the constant level of interaction and the connections they make with these dogs that Jan, Dan and Tom are people that love what they do and they do it better than anyone I’ve ever met! The indoor facility is kept very clean and well maintained, and the outdoor area is setup for the ultimate play time experience! The day care rates are extremely fair for a full day (8am - 5pm) service, and as long as you try to schedule a few days or a week in advance they are usually able to make accommodations for your furry friends. Thank you Jan, Dan, and Tom once again for all you do and Wrigley cannot wait to see you guys again real soon!
Love love love Kennel 31!! They are amazing and the dogs absolutely love it there. It is a game changer on having a beautiful facility to take the pooches when we can’t watch them all day. Janice and her son are the hardest working people in town and they do an amazing job!!
I am writing on behalf of my husband, James. There are not enough stars in the Northern Michigan sky for Kennel 31! When James experienced a sudden medical emergency I needed to find care for our beloved vizsla. Not only did Kennel 31 accommodate my request as a new client but the experience for our dog was outstanding! The kind owners even provided photos of our boy enjoying a safe happy off leash excercise experience. It was clear when I picked him up that he thoroughly enjoyed his stay and that they provided loving, competent care in return. Highly recommend.
Everytime we vacation Up North, we make sure our dog, Dash gets a vacation, too! He spends many of his days at Kennel 31 playing with other dogs during the day. Tom and Janice are fantastic and ensure that all the dogs there are grouped together appropriately for the ultimate doggie daycare experience! We highly recommend Kennel31! 5 starts are not enough!
An out-of-date kennel stuck in the ignorance of the pit bull aggression myth. I bet their kids aren't vaccinated either because that would cause autism... Any kennel that refuses to do a simple meet and greet due to dog breed is 100% unprofessional, unreliable, and proving themselves to be incapable of handling emergency situations (including aggressive play) that happens between dogs of any breed. I wouldn't trust my dog to them even if they let her in 🤷♀️
My 90 pound ball of energy lab, Nicholas, had an incredible time at Kennel 31. It’s an amazing facility and any pup would be lucky to visit there, whether it’s for daycare or overnight. Anytime we are up North we will be stopping by. Nick can’t wait to come back and play with Duke and friends!
Oliver our 7 year old Pomeranian has a home away from home at Kennel 31! He stayed for 23 days this summer and we felt so comforted that he was in good hands.
They love dogs! Lots of room to run! Highly recommended!!!!
Our dog and us love this kennel. We recommend and will return.
Total speciesism. “We will not take your dog if he has any pit”.
