Cat Sitting in Tecumseh

We have been using Golden Acres for many years. Anne has always given our pets the care and attention they need including administering medications and keeping us informed of our elderly dog sense of comfort. It’s hard leaving your dogs when you’re out of town but I’ve been able to feel comforted that my dogs are well taken care of. They have the ability to be taken out and walked and I have the ability to keep all three of my small dogs together with their own beds for comfort. We’ve always felt comfortable talking to Anne about any issues we may have concerns about with our dogs. Our three just spent nine days and when we picked them up they were happy and warm and ready for home. Highly recommended.

We’ve boarded our dogs here for about five years and highly recommend them! This family and their staff are amazing and they care for your fur babes like they’re part of the family. They go above and beyond what is expected and are very accommodating. If you’re looking for a great boarding facility that actually cares, this is the place to go to. I wouldn’t leave my dogs with anyone else.

When we moved to Michigan, finding a quality boarding facility was a priority. We feel so lucky to have found Golden Acres. Anne and the young employees are always welcoming and review our dog's needs upon arrival. Anne cares to text or call when something atypical happens (yes, our dog, the counter thief, ate a corn cob). Highly recommend!

I have been boarding my dog at Golden Acres for 10 years, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Anne is a very caring, friendly person, and the fact that she is a vet tech is a definite plus! The kennels are spotless, heated/cooled and she even has music for these pampered pets! Golden Acres and Anne get a 10+ in my book!

I've been using Golden Acres for about 2 years now. My pup was a rescue, so I had no idea what his background was. I took him to another boarding place in Ann Arbor which was expensive, but they socialize the dogs and that's what I was trying to do as Buddy was very anti social timid and scared around anyone but me. Unfortunately he got attacked the second time I used them by another dog. I was so thankful for Anne to try with Buddy. She took me on a tour of the facility prior to his first stay. I explained my situation with him, and she patiently took time with him. He absolutely loves her and so do I.

We recently boarded our dogs here for the first time on the recomendation of our pet groomer. After a week we returned to find our dogs happy and clean. Golden Acres is better than other kennels we have tried and we will definitely be back.

Boarded my 2 dogs here 3 different times. The animals didn’t seem to mind going here however on all 3 occasions, the dogs returned to me with an abundance of left over food. We specifically wrote down feeding instructions and taped it to the food container. We also sent treats for the dogs with instructions and the treats returned to us all 3 times basically full as if none were given. The first 2 stays were for almost a week at a time and both times the dogs came back to us skinny, ribs showing, and spine showing. The third time we boarded our dogs, we measured their food exactly plus 2 extra meals. We were only gone for a few days and when we returned, there was enough food left over that clearly showed the dogs may have been fed once per day at most. I spoke with Anne the owner and she proceeded to keep telling me that she was a vet tech for 13 years and that one of my dogs had “soft stools” and that I just don’t understand. She also stated that she administers medications and foods of her choice to the animals whenever she feels it’s necessary without consulting with the pet owners. Not once did I ever receive any feedback from her good or bad. She’s not a licensed veterinarian but tries to dictate what the animals are fed and how much no matter what the pet owner instructions are. I get the feeling that she is more interested in the dogs she breeds and sells and she wants as little mess as possible in the kennels so the pets just aren’t fed. I sent a blanket from home and dog toys and neither appeared to be used for my dogs. Anne said that she gives the dogs towels that have been donated over the years. I really question what goes on behind closed doors as no one can enter the building due to Covid restrictions. Pet owners, just be aware of my experience and judge for yourself. Best of luck!

Golden Acres Boarding has a wonderful facility and accommodating for my large husky. They are attuned to my dog's needs adding extra walks and communicating with us to make his stay as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend!

I looked into boarding my dog here. After speaking with Anne, I don't trust her. I love my pets. They are my family members. I got a bad feeling. I wouldn't go here. Tecumseh is a pet friendly community. I took my do to a vet/kennel on Occidental hwy. EXCELLENT 👍 Maybe Anne had an off day. I refuse to leave my pets with people I dont feel comfortable with. What happens when I leave? 😥😥

We, and more importantly our dogs, love Anne and Paul/Golden Acres! We have boarded our dogs at Golden Acres for many years and have always been highly satisfied with the care they receive. I never have concerns about the dogs when they are with Anne and Paul and their staff!

So glad I found this company! I have a rescue dog from Afghanistan and needed someone to stay overnights with her for a few days after another pet sitter canceled last minute. Ellen was always on time, friendly and was wonderful with Peggy Sue. She and her staff understand not every animal is the same and treated Peggy very well. This business is very trustworthy and affordable. I am very appreciative and thankful! I will definitely always use Adrian Home and Pet sitter when I need to be away in the future!!!

Ellen has taken care of our cats for at least 20 years. We trust her and the cats trust her. When I say that our dear departed Artemis allowed Ellen to pet her, I'm saying something remarkable! She provides kind, professional, and caring service. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Ellen Baker has helped me take care of my cats since 2011 when I first moved to Adrian. I was immediately won over by her genuine love of animals and her dedication as a business woman. I continue to rely on her professionalism and her willingness to go above and beyond. She helped me many times over holidays and in short notice situations. When, in the middle of the pandemic, I was stuck outside the country for an extra two weeks, the one comfort I had was that Ellen would be there to take care of the cats and my house. The cat situation at my house has evolved a lot over the years and sometimes involved complicated routines. Ellen has taken everything in stride and never ceases to impress me with her immediate responses to any text I send and her reliable updates for each day she visits. I am beyond grateful!

Ellen took great care of my five kitties while I went to my Grandson's wedding in Washington State. She understood that they all hide when a new person comes into our home and made sure she saw each of them each time she came to care for them. She sends videos to the 'parents' so that you can see for yourself how your fur babies are. I recommend Ellen highly.

Ellen is an exceptionally competent, caring, and responsible pet sitter; and reasonably priced as well. She has cared for our two cats several times during our travels, and sends daily video updates, while also bring in the mail. I also like that she is insured and trained in pet first aid. She has our highest recommendation.

My pets and I have been quite happy with Adrian Home and Pet Sitters. We have needed her services several times - sometimes on the spur of the moment and have always been pleased with the response and services. Ellen Baker, owner is so very caring and professional! I have recommended her to several friends and family members.

I having been using Adrian Pet Sitters for 3 years on a daily basis s my two dogs need to be let out and walked mid-day Monday-Friday. I have never met a staff that is more dedicated to my pets wellness and safety than Ellen and her staff. They go above and beyond what is expected. I wouldn't use anyone else!

We have utilized Adrian Home and Pet Sitter for our 3 dogs and highly recommend their service. Ellen provides top quality care and goes above and beyond. We have one Big Boy who is scared of thunder, Ellen spent extra time to wait out the storm with him. Daily updates on how things are going were provided and all was well upon our return. This is by far the best option for your pets as kennels stays add so much stress and anxiety. Our boys hardly seemed to miss us. Thanks again for the great care!

I just returned from a 3 week vacation where Ellen and Barb cared for my 2 indoor and numerous outdoor cats. In addition to the excellent service which included daily videos of my babies, they took in the mail and watered my plants! Highly re commend and will use them over and over again. Thanks!!

My wife and I have used AHPS for several years and they have saved us hours of heartache and worry. Exceptionally reliable, incredibly responsive and flexible, we would recommend Ellen/Barb/Danielle/the entire crew to anyone who asks. They consistently go above and beyond and always allow us to travel without the additional concerns AND at very reasonable rates. Highly recommended, you won’t regret it.

Terrific people and flexible. Trustworthy, and my dog loves them too!

Caring, friendly, home like atmosphere. Sue cares so much she slept on the floor with Jasper his first night to relieve his anxiety. Jasper liked his stay so much he wants to come back over just to play. Suncatcher Pet Services is my go to spot for quality care for my furbaby.

Nice family, Great place for my doodle to run around with their nice dogs. Felt comfortable leaving my pup. Will be asking for a week for him to stay for the coming summer!

Caring, dependable, above my expectations. Will definitely use the home visit services again.
