Professional pet-sitter and nonprofit professional looking to travel more!
Heather was a pleasure to have in my home to care for my two dogs. She was interested in the fine points of their care, food, medicine, sleeping etc, with complete acceptance of their routine. Heather communicated with me daily about her day and her day with the pups, along with adorable photos so I knew what was going on at home. Before leaving, I went over a few household items, such as trash out days, yard clean up after the pups, etc. there was not an issue with following these directions. I travel alot for ski clinics, and there have been prior issues. But not at all with Heather. She was sweet and kind to me and the pups, let me know if there were food issues with the pups, if we were running low, or if one of my pups did not finish his food with medication. Also, Healther took immaculate care of my home. Sheets and towels were washed, kitchen and bathroom were cleaned. I appreciated her level of care, especially arriving home after a long travel day. I was able to come home to a perfect house, along with a thank you note from Heather. Also, Heather left me a de-brief text. Wonderful housesitter!!! I welcome Heather back next ski season....

We were so happy to welcome Vanessa back to take care of our 4 cats while we were on a trip with our dog. The cats were thrilled to get the attention. Vanessa gave us reassuring updates and left our house clean but even more importantly, we returned to very contented cats! Vanessa is very welcome to return again in the future!

Kevin was sensational. Great with pets, compulsively clean and tidy, even brought all his needs with him, left the house more beautiful than before. He is smart, friendly, and walked the dog a lot more than he gets usually. I trust him completely and hope he comes again.

Jonah and Daniel did a fantastic job taking care of Zoe and the house. We really couldn’t have expected any more from them. Daniel even taught Zoe a couple of new commands! Everything was in perfect order upon our return and we are very happy with all aspects of our interaction with them. We would gladly invite them to sit for us again and can’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you Jonah and Daniel!!!

Paul is the best! He brought toys for the cats and made friends with the neighbors. Communication was ‘just right’ to make it easier for him to figure out our house and for us to feel confident in his care. We would welcome him back any time.
Michele is a great pet sitter for my dog Charley! She keeps me informed and sends pictures. I came home to an immaculate home! I hope she will come back again.
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.
Once again Dede was the most perfect pup and house sitter you could ever hope to have the pleasure of using. She leaves our home cleaner than we left it and our pups so happy that they continue to search for her after she leaves. Dede handled an emergency situation with a false CO2 alarm which resulted in a visit from the fire department perfectly and we were so grateful! I feel completely comfortable with her in our home and know she is giving our 2 dogs the very best care. Thank you Dede - you truly are the best!
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
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!

Tom came over for a meet and greet and went over everything in detail. I felt very comfortable letting him watch my dogs. He followed my instructions exactly as I explained them to him. I loved the report card and photos! I highly recommend and will definitely be using their services again!
We could not have asked for a better experience!! Tom was very thorough and wanted to make sure that no box was left unchecked before babysitting our poodle for our vacation. I received updates every single day with informative notes to let me know how Oliver was doing. Tom was responsive to my texts, and very loving to our baby boy. Clearly, Tom and his team worked with our Oliver during his 30 minute walks as we noticed Oliver with much better walking behavior upon our return! Tom and his team were faithful in watering our plants, ensuring that Oliver had music at night and had cuddle time every day. We are grateful and will use Tom’s service again ♥️♥️♥️
Poppy had her first visit from Tom last evening and she had a great time walking and playing! We feel very comfortable with Tom. He is very professional and caring! We will definitely use his services again!
Tom & Desiree are the best! They took care of my dog Mia while I was recently on vacation. They walked her 3 times daily and showed her much love and attention. Mia is a Lab/Beagle mix and at times she can be a handful!! Her hunting instincts kick in when she see a rabbit, squirrel or chipmunk and to say she pulls on her leash is an understatement!! Tom handled her very well and was up to the challenge. I can honestly say I did not worry about her at all while she was in their care. I will definitely use Tom & Desiree Pet Service in the future! Top notch!🐾❤️🐾 Sue Kimmel
Initially, I became aware of Tom and Desiree through Petco‘s rover app. We started with them approximately eight months ago, and I will never have anybody else as long as they’re available. My litter boxes are clean when I come back as if I were there myself. He sends pictures of my cats, even to show that he plays with them. I recommend them highly
Tom took great care of our dogs and our home while we were on vacation. My dogs are still watching the door hoping he is coming back to play. Tom and Desiree are very nice people. Highly recommend!
This is the third (or fourth?) time that I have used Tom & Desiree's service and they are just wonderful to work with. Their website makes the booking and payment process super easy and they have been great at communication leading up to and at the time of service - I have used them for both drop-in visits and dog walking for my two Labrador retrievers. They always send me a detailed "report card" - including photos - after each visit and the best part is that my dogs absolutely LOVE them (especially Tom) so I never worry about them when I know Tom & Desiree will be stopping by!
Being my first experience doing something like this I was nervous leaving my fur child but Tom and Desiree took great care of my pal baron, fed him on schedule took him out to play and interacted with him, even cleaned up an accident. They sent me pictures and he was happy and enjoying the new friends he made. The house was just like I left it when I returned home along with one happy doggy thank you so much for taking care of my best friend.
I have multiple animals. Not all of them required attention but they took time to become acquainted with them. Of those cared for, none were rushed and all were given positive encouragements. Very patient. Even went out of the way to secure pill pockets for one needing medication. Also asking if anything else was needed before finishing up
Tom has been doing weekly lunch time visits and walks with our dog for over 6 months. He is professional, organized, and provides updates and photos after each visit which is greatly appreciated. It is easy to tell that he loves what he does and he cares for our dog like his own. I would highly recommend Tom and Desiree’s Pet Sitting!😊
I had recently taken my 4 month old berner puppy and 3 yr old lab for doggie daycare with an overnight stay. This was first time away from us for both dogs. Our lab is a velcro baby and hates to be separated from us even when we're at home. But, she had the best time at Don a Shirls with all the dogs and hated to leave. Chris took great care of our puppy as well. I would give him 10 stars if I could, as they take great care of your furry loved ones.
This was my first time using this kennel. It was a recommendation from a friend. The owner was friendly. It was obvious he and his young son who helps him love dogs. My dog was in good spirits when I picked her up after 3 days here. I will definitely use Don-A-Shirl Pet Motel in the future.
Absolutely awesome care of our two dogs (Jersey & Sully) every year. Top shelf staff to deal with!! Reasonable prices. I would and did recommend them to everyone. Love the Face Book pictures they share!!.
They were awesome! They watched my dog Dutch for me for 4 days, they informed me that he did very good and they loved him! Very reasonable prices and smelled clean every time I walked in. I would always recommend this place if you need a temporary place to board your four-legged friends!
We have used Don-A-Shirl for years. The care and love they show your pet is absolutely amazing.
Can't say enough about this place. Prices are competitive and they treat our "kids" like their own which makes it so worth it. We can take a vacation and with peace of mind knowing the pups are being well cared for. Love that they started posting pictures of FB of them being walked! Thank you for outstanding service!!
Absolutely awesome care of our two dogs every year. Great people to deal with and very reasonable prices. I would recommend them to everyone.
I moved away and miss them desperately. This isn't a fancy over the top luxury resort for your dog, but it is CLEAN and filled with love. I never smelled anything negative during drop off and pick up, and before I moved I was taking my girls there every other weekend. My dogs received attention like they were the only ones there, even when they were quite busy. They were always happy and excited to return - I think that says it all. This business is operated by good people with hearts full of love.
This is the only place we will take our 2 dogs. I think they have more fun there than we do on our trips. Our older dog Duke has anxiety, but you'd never guess it when he RUNS to the door! I've posted a photo of Duke after he comes back from a weekend there. We know they're both in great hands. So thankful for them!
Chris took great care of our young pup for a week while we were out of town. The only draw back was the radio was so loud all the time now she hears a radio she is running to hide somewhere.
