Shauna
Douglas, Michigan
Full time traveling couple wanting to hang out with your cool pets!
Shauna and Craig kept in touch every day with pictures of kitties and how they were doing even though no expectation was set for an update, so they did that of their own accord. They were easy to communicate with and very friendly. House was immaculate when we returned and one of our kitties sheds a lot. They even left us a little gift. We would love to have them return again!
Dawn
Douglas, Michigan
Animals are such agreeable friends. They ask no questions & pass no criticism.
Dawn and Greg were the perfect sitters from the start. We had a great FaceTime with them since they were coming from a different time zone, which immediately put us at ease! We ran into a bit of an issue night one (our fault) and they were flexible, adaptable and SO gracious! Dawn was great about communicating with us, sending pictures and keeping us apprised of how our kitties were doing. We would gladly have Dawn and Greg again.
Tracey
Douglas, Michigan
Responsible house sitter that will care for your home/pets as if they were mine.
I would highly recommend Tracey. She is kind, caring and easy to work with. This is the second time Tracey has come to stay with Boz. Like before, she was responsible, dependable, clean, self sufficient, and Boz was a happy girl when I got home. The garden was also well taken care of. Thanks so much Tracey. You are welcome back anytime!
Dana
Douglas, Michigan
Happily married pet-loving Michigan couple who love experiencing local home life
We were so happy to have Dana & David stay at our house! They were prompt with communications and took great care of our home. They were very flexible as our plans changed at the last minute. Simply said, we would highly recommend Dana & David!
Dawn
Douglas, Michigan
Loving care for your pets & home
I was very nervous about leaving my senior rescue dog with a new set of humans…he had been through a lot. But from the moment Dani and Dawn walked in , I knew everything would be fine. They are both very relaxed and kind and Beau took to them immediately. They took exceptional care of my dog AND my home. I came back to a happy dog and a spotless house. I couldn’t ask for more. Thank you Dani and Dawn. Beau misses you!
Elizabeth
Douglas, Michigan
Caring, Clean and Dependable Traveler Who Would Love To Take Care Of Your Home
Elizabeth was fantastic and we would absolutely have her again. She is a great communicator, checked with us if she wasn't sure, took good care of Lulu, and was overall wonderful.
Chris
Douglas, Michigan
Retired educators will provide ownership care
Chris and Barb were great pet and house sitters! Our dog Arthur was sad to see them leave and us arrive! They left our home even cleaner and tidier than when we left, and we appreciate all they did to look after Arthur.
Dede
Douglas, Michigan
Retired Trial Attorney-Trustworthy, Compassionate, Friendly, Caring and Tidy!
We were lucky enough to have Dede sit our house and yellow lab for a little more than two weeks. She treated our house as if it were her own and did an outstanding job looking after our three year old yellow lab, providing the requisite exercise for her, as well as the love and attention she so craves. Our home was spotless upon our return with everything in order and although our pup was happy to see us, she may have been a little sad to see Dede go. We would reccomend Dede, with our highest praise, to anyone who is seeking a responsible, caring, communicative and considerate sitter, you will not be disappointed!
Elise
Douglas, Michigan
I'm a quiet, clean, responsible nurse (and animal lover).
(The English version follow) Tout était parfait avec Elise! Dès son entrée dans la maison, j'ai perçu son intérêt et sa douceur envers Anna et Boris. Elle s'est montrée très attentive à mes attentes et a posé de bonnes questions pour s'assurer de bien comprendre le fonctionnement à la maison. J'aurais aimé recevoir plus de nouvelles de Anne et Boris lors de mon absence. Je vais m'assurer que cet aspect soit plus clair lors de mon prochain gardiennage. La maison était super propre... au delà même de mes attentes !. Elise m'a même laissé des fraises fraiches et du chocolat pour mon retour. Quelle douce pensée ! Pour toutes ces raisons, je recommende chaudement Elise ! --------------------------------------- Everything was perfect with Elise! As soon as she entered the house, I felt her interest and gentleness towards Anna and Boris. She was very attentive to my expectations and asked good questions to make sure she understood how the house worked. I would have liked to receive more news from Anne and Boris during my absence. I will make sure that this aspect is clearer during my next house-sitting. The house was super clean... beyond my expectations! Elise even left me fresh strawberries and chocolate for my return. What a sweet thought! For all these reasons, I highly recommend Elise!
Sara
Douglas, Michigan
Friendly, Responsible Pet Sitter looking to Travel while Working Remotely
From a pet sitting aspect we were not unsatisfied with Sara. Our dogs seemed happy and our chickens were also tended to well. However, from a house sit I will say we were disappointed with a few things. There was a bad storm the day before we left and we requested some photos of the damage to our property that was done. I asked multiple times and never received what I asked for after saying she would send it. We also agreed to daily updates in form of text or pictures of the animals and I did go the first couple days without reliable communication which didn’t sit well with me. As for the state of the house upon return, while it was mostly clean, one of our curtain rods was ripped from the wall. I wouldn’t have been upset had we just been notified of the repair that needed to be done but she never even told us that she broke anything in the house it was just left. She also very clearly rummaged through our drawers and took brand new unopened toiletries from areas that we did not specify she could use and she never reached out asking if it would be ok to take.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Tracie
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Bill & Kathy
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
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.
Joanne
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Alison
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
Anne Laure
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
Marni
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Lorie
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Nancy
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.

My Yorkie Koko is 8. He has been a customer, loved , by the staff since he was 6 months old. They have taken the best care of him! You can trust your baby to them.
I have been taking my little guy here since he was a young puppy. He is always clean, happy, and nicely trimmed when I pick him up. He seems to be very comfortable here, walking around and interacting with the other dogs. I am away right now, so we went to another groomer. She was very complimentary of how well D by D had “table trained” him. The service is also great. I highly recommend D by D!
Our first time experience! My dogs groomer of many years past away and we have been going through many groomers that did not do a good job and my little guy hated them. He felt right at home with the ladies here. We will definitely be going back
My guys first time and these ladies did amazing!!
Great service, I called the day before wanting to get my dog groomed knowing it was short notice, they weren't able to do a full groom, but squeezed him in to give him a badly needed bath and nail trim! He's been groomed there before and they do a great job! Love these gals. Reasonable rates, and pleasant service along with a job well done.
I took my dog in to Dogs by Design and gave specific instructions on how I wanted her to be groomed and how not to be groomed. When I came to pick her up, the groom was nothing like I asked to be done. She was shaved to the skin in some areas and cut shorter than asked. I called back the next day to say I was disappointed in the groom and was told “she thought she did a good job”. They offered 50% off the next groom, but I will not be returning for a future service.
The people here are amazing! Melissa always does a great job and so does Camy! Very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend bringing your fur babies here. Good prices as well.
I have been taking my pups here since they opened and never had a complaint. They always do their best work at making my pups look so handsome! I appreciate how many times they have squeezed me in last minute :)
They were great with our puppy. Very kind people and they did exactly what we asked as far as his cut and at a reasonable price!!
We love Dogs by Design. They are extremely competent and professional. Our dogs look great and love going for grooming. We are lucky to have such a great service in Douglas!
Camp Saugapup

Recent Reviews:
Camp Saugapup is beyond our every hope for our dog. Diane and her team are naturally and deeply "dog-people". They love all dogs as much as we love ours. And it shows very genuinely. The setting is an amazing expanse of dog-park type space with mature trees, a sand pit, and a large temperature-controlled, furnished dog living room. Cleo comes home bathed and clean as well as happy and appropriately tired after a day of play and rest. Can't imagine a better situation for our dog. Six stars out of five.
Camp Saugapup has a professional and caring staff. I am impressed by the consistent adherence to routines, procedures, and attention to detail - all in the interest of dog safety. There is a huge, clean area for dogs to run, and a cozy indoor area with a sofa and places to rest. The knowledgable and thoughtful design of Camp Saugapup supports dogs and play and minimizes the potential for problems. We are newcomer campers (I have three dogs), but I am absolutely impressed. I never give a second thought or concern for the dogs' safety, welfare, or whether they are having fun. They ARE and they will be happily tired and sleep the rest of the day! Heaven! I would highly recommend Camp Saugapup!
Camp Saugapup is the best! Diane and her crew of canines are very welcoming. Besides Diane’s huge heart and love for dogs, the place is beyond amazing- the Four Seasons of pet care. She has cared for our child beast Harvey on numerous occasions. I’d highly recommend Camp Saugapup to anyone!!!
Everything about Camp Saugapup is genuinely amazing. Dog safety is number 1 priority. Dog fun is number 2. The care your dog receives while they're away at camp for the day will no doubt meet or exceed your expectations, they become part of the Camp Saugapup family. The owner of Camp Saugapup is unbelievably dog savvy and cares about all dogs and insuring they have great doggie adventures in a doggie safe environment. Send your dog to camp! You won't regret it, and I know they'll love it.
My dog Jace loves Camp Saugapup! The space is amazing there, and I have no doubt the the owner, Diane has my dogs best interest at heart! Between the sand digging pit and the pool, and the acreage of land for him to run and play.... so much fun for him and I don't feel bad that he's just sitting at home! I would recommend Camp Saugapup to everyone!!!
One-of-a-kind dog daycare where the pups play safely free in a large, beautiful park-like setting (under supervision) yet importantly get down time to rest as well. They treat like family and bonus star for dogs sent home clean!
It was good until it was bad. My dog was acting out and I didn’t know. Zero communication or partnership. It came up when they decided to be closed on all Fridays for the summer with only 3 days notice! (Often don’t have staff and will close “for safety”, but just don’t count on them to be open 100% of when they say they will.) Seem to be friendly but don’t share the dog’s experience. When I began to ask questions, they had several issues about my dog that I had never experienced with her. When I challenged their approach they said I could get my money back. Then at a high point in the conversation they said they would “love” to have her stay, but when I replied I wanted a day to think about it, they got personal to me and said I was misinformed (how can I be when they don’t tell me anything?) and basically kicked us out. May be a positive experience for some dogs but would NOT recommend for a working breed or demanding younger dog.
Great staff, and a very happy place for Nutmeg, a new "client" I pet sit for. The staff is great with both young and senior dogs, giving them the personal attention they need for their age range.
Phenomenal day care experience for our pup. He came back happy, washed and tired from a full day of playing with other dogs. Diane, and her staff, are great to work with.
The best place in the area to take your dog. Staff is excellent and my dog sam loves it!!

My dogs are like my babies and Dog's Bay is the only place I trust caring for them when I can't take them on vacation with me. I boarded my Rat Terriers Emma & Mr. Darcy there when they were alive, and today I just picked up my precious Pomsky Ripley. If you want dog people who love spoiling dogs to watch over your fur baby I highly recommend Dog's Bay. The staff is amazing! They listen, they're thorough, they're knowledgeable, and they genuinely care about your dog. On their Facebook page they post pics of the dogs in their care on a daily basis so you can constantly check up on how your dog is doing. Let's face it, as a dog person you know by your baby's body language how they're feeling about a place or person. This time I could tell Ripley was having fun, just like my Ratties used to. The peace of mind is priceless! Ripley and I give them a 10 out of 10.
I took my two dogs here for the first time when we went on vacation this month and they were very tired when we picked them up! They kept could track of everything, including how much they were eating, and their behavior during play. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and we will be returning customers.
I LOVE this place! They have transformed my incorrigible 11 month old puppy! Pretty proud of her graduating "Pup Cub" school! Can't wait to start "Pup Scout" school. They are caring, kind, considerate and the list goes on!!
This was our first time boarding our dog & he loved it! They took a lot of care when acclimating new dogs to the group play and making sure the overall experience was great for our dog and us. Would definitely board here again.
We were beyond pleased with our experience and the wonderful staff at Dog’s Bay. Miss Penny loved all of the belly rubs, her warm bed, and play time with her new friends. They were flexible and let her stay overnight when we couldn’t make it in time for pickup, sent us updates each time we asked for one, and even sent us home with a goodie bag! Thank you for taking such good care of our fur-kid! We will definitely be back!
I brought 2 of my dogs here for grooming and was so happy with the results! Poppy and Georgia look so much better. They came together and it only took just under 3 hours for both of them. Abby, their groomer was so sweet and caring with my Husky girls. They were long overdue for grooming and were probably 5 pounds lighter when we left.
We have boarded our dogs here a few times now and it's been a great experience. The staff is friendly and organized, and our dogs are excited to play when we pull up to the facility. We trust them with our girls when we leave town and know they will be well taken care of.
We always board our dog, Archie, here when we go on vacation. They take such good care of our baby and really treat him like a member of the family. We always feel good knowing that he’s going to get to play with his doggy friends and not be stuck in a crate all day long. Big thanks to the Dog’s Bay team for their hard work, time and care.
We love this place. They love on and take great care of our dogs
I have been taking my dogs to Dogs Bay for over 15 years to board, and 2-3 times a week for doggie daycare. I trust them completely with the happiness and safety of my fur kids. The play areas are both indoor and out, and when out, they are not on artificial grass or concrete. They are out in nature, playing in sand boxes, taking nature walks, having pool parties in the summer. My dogs are beyond excited to pull down that drive. Owner Deb goes over and beyond to make sure her customers are happy and satisfied. The employees are all so pleasant, and their love for the dogs there shines through - many of them have been there for years and I consider them friends. Thank you, Deb and team, for providing happiness for my fur kids and peace of mind for me!
