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!

Not all dog lovers can care for the large breed dogs. You can't just pick them up to fix a problem. And they tend to drool. Betsy was just marvelous with Byron. He likes to get out to walk or ride around in the car. He is a nosy thing. Betsy was able to find his best self. She sent lots of pictures. The house looked the same as we left it. I could not ask for more. We appreciated all she did to allow us to take a vacation without worry.

Jeff and Kelly were amazing cat sitters for Marshall and Pepper! They sent pictures and commentary every day. My cats are very friendly and they provided lots of laughs for the sitters. I would have them cat sit any time! They also left my home very clean and washed and changed the sheets for us. I recommend them for any sitting jobs!
Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter
Marlen was such a blessing. We had another sitter cancel just a week before our vacation date so I was so relieved that she was able to step in at such short notice. She came to meet our pups a few days in advance so they would recognize her. While we were away, Marlen sent picture updates and made sure the dogs were cared for. So glad to have found someone like her to help us out.
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida! Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉
Annabella was a fantastic, trustworthy dog sitter for our three pups. She was very responsible and did everything we asked of her and communicated well.
Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

I've taken my puppy here for two training classes, and he just had his first daycare session today as well. Everyone at Happy Dog Acres is super friendly and genuinely cares about the dogs. The training program is really fun and top notch, and Cosmo had a total riot in daycare today. Kudos to everyone at this facility, I cannot recommend it enough
There's a reason it's called Happy Dog Acres! My pup jumps out of the car to go see her friends and has an awesome time every time we bring her! Kelly & the girls take great care of her...not a single worry when she's there!!
I have two very energetic German shorthair pointers. One with Addison disease, the other is still recovering from a traumatic injury approx 1 yr ago. (Severed achilles tendon and repair) she has some pretty bad separation anxiety. However, with the love and care of the staff at happy dog acres they both were happy healthy upon pickup. It was our first good kennel experience. We will definitely be going back! They helped ease my anxiety as we were going out of state by sending photos of them playing in the yard! Fabulous job all around!
Our pup loves Happy Dog Acres! The trainer, Kelly, and her assistant, Lynn, are wonderful. Highly recommend!
My boy Luke loves spending time at Happy dog acres, even if it's for the day or a night or two. He has a lot of room to run and my who is a coonhound definitely needs it. Kelly and the girls are absolutely wonderful with all the dogs and keep them very safe.
Kelly and James are wonderful! Very knowledgeable and truly love the dogs in their care. Their staff are well trained and professional. The dogs have a lot of room to play, and the training is the best we've seen. We wouldn't consider taking our dogs anywhere else. Highly recommend!!
The owner seemed nice but there are a lot of issues with this daycare/kennel. Firstly when I arrived to drop off my dog to do a short 2 hour trial, I was told to wait outside in my car. No one is allowed in the buildings, and you don’t even know what building your dog will be in. It looks like a house on the property and then a big barn, but it’s unclear what type of set up is inside. I understand if they don’t want dogs to get upset with strangers coming and going, but there should be an area customers can go in to drop off without other dogs seeing you. I was very uneasy about not knowing what the set up was like inside. And having to wait outside. The couple people that were working seemed to stare at me like I was some intruder, only one of the staff was welcoming. Wasn't very happy with the set up. No indoor play areas, the staff has to leash walk the dogs to the outdoor play areas (very unsafe practice), there is a large amount of trash just lying around like wood pieces with nails sticking out, and unsafe building structures on the property. Will not be going back.
Pretty good kept our dog here for a day he seemed pretty happy lol
We recently adopted a rescue puppy. The training, tips and individualized attention have been an immense help in dealing with her issues. I highly recommend Kelly and the crew at Happy Dog Acres.
I am so glad I found this place! Kelly and everyone are awesome. And so many play areas for the dogs. I highly recommend.
Left in kennel all weekend. No other dogs. Tore her bed up that smelled like urine and was filthy. Drank lots of water when I got her threw her bed out! Gave her bath when we got home. She's white and has brown patches on her fur from not sure what.. Smelled very strong urine in the place. Staff was nice. But don't think sylvy will be back. You get what you pay for.
L & M boarding did a great job with my dog's first time at a kennel. A special thanks to Patty!!!! She did a fantastic job at putting everyone at ease. Thank you so much Patty; you ROCK!!! The Sweeney family.
Our Sheppard was so thirsty when we got her back. In her kennel, they had her water dish, on the floor, but she had spilled it. They also had a cattle prod on the wall, hanging out side the kennels. They advertise it being a three star kennel that's what I gave them. 😞 …
I've used them a few times and every time I picked up, they tell me they hadn't fed that day. Got home last time and the dog couldn't drink enough water. If I get a different dog, it will never stay there!
Reasonable rates and great care for the dogs. I was very happy.
Great place if you can get the right person to serve you.
Awesome place
This place is AMAZING. They treated our pups like their own! They paid special attention to our English Setters and their exercise needs! Their facility is extremely clean & comfortable for the dogs. Our babies came home soooo happy and sooo tired! 😂 What a great experience! We will definitely be back! Thank you!! …
New ownership and new level of service. Our pups were warmly welcomed and expertly cared for while we were on a 4 day trip. Easy in and out, convenient hours, and dogs had a blast. Highly recommend.
Our golden and daughters corgi had a great time at this kennel. The owners are accessible and worked with our special needs. So convenient, only a half mile off 75 on exit 222. Perfect stay over for your up north trips!
Fantastic, friendly, clean, with great prices. My dogs 1st away from home experience and she's very clingy, I picked her up 10 days later in good health and spirit. They even sent me pics of her as she went along, I recommend them for your animal stay
The proprietors were very nice along with very caring of my animals. They're definitely see me again. And the grooming was outstanding.
Did a walk in nail trim for my 3 bostons. They were great and took me right in. Diffently will be going back!
Very friendly caring people and they do a lot with your pet for play/exercise all while posting your pet on fb for you to see when you are missing them.
We have had our furnace at Happy Pups bnb twice now in a year. I know I can go on my vacation and That Lola is taken care of. Jay and Stephanie are great with her and Lola gets excited to see them. Thanks for caring so much.
We have boarded our dogs with Happy Pups for years now. Our guys are always eager to be there, and are not stressed at all after staying. Jay keeps the facility impeccably clean, and our dogs love him as well. Great folks to deal with, and a reasonable price. I highly recommend Happy Pups.
We travel downstate quite a bit and have been using Happy Pups Bed and Biscuit. We love this kennel! Owners are so nice; kennel is clean, and when we pick up the dogs they are content and relaxed. We never worry about our dogs once we drop them off.
We absolutely love Carla and wags she does phenomenal work taking care of my two babies. I trust her wholeheartedly, dropping my two girls off and every time I pick them up they are so happy and so cute. She doesn’t amazing job and her prices are very very good. I highly recommend wags.
Andrea is absolutely wonderful! She’s very flexible and professional! She went out of her way to take Layla to day care. She calls me back within a few hours. I don’t think you can get better than Wags grooming and boarding!
We used Wags 2 yrs ago with my bk lab puppy of 8 months old and Andrea was the best with Tucker! We needed to board Tucker again and took a chance Wags was still open. Andrea answered and I was so happy! She took the best care of our Tucker …
They are awesome! They treat your pets amazing, my dog is always so clean, ears, nails and the whole 9 yards. Their boarding setup is top notch. Kennels are cleaned and rotated every day with a large area for them to run and play. Pricing is very reasonable!!
Andrea and Carla are very personable, go above and beyond to take care of your pets needs, they have boarding and large yard for dogs to run. Very clean and well kept. Your typical small town business that does anything they can to make you feel like family!
They are the best there!! I won't take my fur babies anywhere else!!
Very patient with my 2 large dogs! One being pretty wary of strangers. Quick and VERY reasonably priced, great with the dogs. I will be going back!
Andi and Carla take the best care of my boys.When I gotta go outta town or work and have a family function afterwards,my boys go here.
Great service and care for MY family member Bella. Great Family owned business. Thank you Wags of Lake City...
Andrea is the Best. She does AWESOME with my pet. Would recommend to all!
