Retired couple loves their pets and travelling
What a pleasure it was to have Tom and Diana stay. We had a whole evening together and it was like we were old friends. They are warm, friendly, and comfortable. It can be intimidating to care for three pups but they handle it

Retired ranch/estate managers free to travel & care for your pets, plants & home
Consider yourself fortunate to have Denise and Jason care for your pets and home. They have a variety of skills and experiences that made our country home with all it's "nuances and quirks" a place we could comfortably hand over to them. They came to visit twice so they were sure they understood all the details. They were quick to communicate when they had questions. We came home to a sparkling clean home and happy animals--dogs, chickens, and fish. We hope we can lure them back for future stays!

Empty nested vet scientist looking for new experiences!
Katia and her daughter stayed with our dog at our house for a week and I couldn't be happier. She was reliable and communicative and a great caretaker for both our pet and our home. I swear the house was cleaner than when we left it (and it was professionally cleaned the day before we left!). Totally recommend!

Lisa & her husband took great care of our baby. They kept in touch while we were gone & left the house clean & our suburban full of gas. They were very respectful & I think max had a great time w/them. I would love to have them back and would recommend to anyone.

Caring Nanny for your Fur babies ❤️
Kim took excellent care of Skye while we were away. She sent a picture with update on how Skye was doing which I always appreciate. When we returned, the house was in perfect condition and Skye was happy. I would have Kim back anytime and highly recommend her.
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.
Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.
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 discovered Kennels of Choco Ranch a few months ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the care they’ve provided for my dogs, Bailey and Willow. The spacious kennels with attached runs give my pups the freedom to enjoy safe outdoor time. They also get daily walks and plenty of human interaction, which I truly appreciate. The convenience of weekend drop-off and pick-up is a lifesaver when traveling. Best of all, Bailey and Willow always come home happy and content!
I was looking for the perfect place for my Princess Leia to stay while we went on a family cruise. I visited several kennels but never felt the warmth I was looking for until I found The Kennels at Choco Ranch. My Leia is a rescue and had been abandoned several times before we found her and I didn’t want her to think we were abandoning her to. Mary and Robert were so welcoming and loving and Leia went right to them with no hesitation. The facility is amazing with plenty of room for our girl to run and explore in the country as she is used to. We will definitely use them again. I give them a 10/10 and highly recommend them for anyone who loves their sweet fur baby like family.
Lovely place to keep our pets. They send lots of photos and even walked our girls around the property.
Very pleased with the care our bulldog, Brisket, has received at Choco Ranch! We are kept informed and we receive pics while there! We’ll be back!
We love how Mary stays in contact with us and sends updates and pics of our dog. Plus, they take great care of our dog
They love our dogs and our dogs love them! We have boarded our dogs with them several times and always been happy with their service.
They took wonderful care of our dog, Olive. They stayed in constant communication and Olive enjoyed her stay.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We greatly appreciate it.
Thank you! We greatly appreciate the time it takes to do a review.
I had my first lesson with Rick today and it was AMAZING! He has such a calming energy that also builds confidence, and he explained everything so well. I’m looking forward to implementing these practices at home and future lessons. Go see Rick!!! He’s awesome.
Rick is one of the most amazing people I've ever met! He's so calm and grounded and he's TRUELY a dog lover. Positive energy just radiates from him and all the dogs he trains. Highly recommended for training and boarding! When boarding, Rick and his staff are in constant contact with you and your dog. It really puts you at ease and you know that your dog is safe and being well taken care of when you're away! He's done wonders with our dog, Maizy. He taught her to be confident in herself, around other people, and around other dogs. Training skills that my wife and I definitely do not have. We continue classes for Maizy with Rick and look forward to boarding Maizy again with him in the future.
Rick and his team do a great job all around. I opted to do the two week board and train program for my pup, Ginger. It's hard leaving your fur baby somewhere for that long, but Rick is a really nice guy and someone you can trust to treat your dog like family. When I first got to Rick's place I think we spent an hour going over Ginger, the problems we were having at home - and how best to address those. When I left, I felt completely comfortable knowing Ginger would be in good hands. I got a handful of updates while Ginger was in training and Rick was very responsive any time I had questions. I am writing this review about a week after picking up Ginger from the program. I can tell she learned a lot, and really enjoyed her lessons. Before bringing her to Rick, Ginger was a 'super' jumper, and would just about tackle anyone who walked in the door. After going through the program I now have the tools to manage Ginger jumping all over my guests (among several other things). I can tell she is much more calm and controlled after going through training. In addition, Rick did some great work with the 'Stay' command which is a huge safety benefit for Ginger. She is one to bolt out of doors given any opportunity so that is something I can really appreciate. I think it is also worth noting that Rick is very affordable compared to similar services elsewhere. I was able to work with the board and train program on my grad student budget. For the price, you really can't find a better service. And, the two-week program includes a private lesson for some follow up training to help solidify the commands. I can't thank Rick and his team enough for their help. I read a lot of reviews before deciding to go with K9 Sensei, so I hope you found this one helpful. I would encourage you to give them a call to learn more about the awesome services they offer.
Great atmosphere for dog training. Rick and Zack are very respectful and give honest feedback to help us humans understand our dogs and how to handle them in specific situations. My husband and I are empowered and grateful to have all the tools they gave us. Highly recommend k9 sensei if you’re having any issues!
We have been going to K9 Sensei for a few weeks now and cannot express enough how wonderful this place is. Besides being extremely affordable, Rick and his wife are kind, accommodating, as well as helpful in every sense of the word. We have seen massive improvements in our German Shepard Teddy and are pleased and excited for our appointments with K9 Sensei. Teddy loves going to class and is excited when returning home to perform new tasks learned. This is a superior, top quality business that I would recommend anyone who needs assistance with their dog go to. Every class is beneficial filled with constructive and valuable teachings for not only your pet but for you as a pet owner as well. You will leave being more than satisfied and excited to watch your pet grow into the best version of itself after each meeting. K9 sensei offers a variety of services and can help you and your dog’s bond grow closer than you ever thought possible. I have been to various other dog training establishments throughout the years and none compare to the services and care I feel Teddy has when going here. K9 Sensei truly values and cheers on your pup in a supportive heartwarming way that no one else, besides you the owner, can. I recommend anyone needing any type of dog training, potty, aggression, obedience, etc. try them out. You will absolutely fall in love!
I found k9 sensei online when searching for potty training help. The gentleman I spoke to was a stand up person. Not only that, I quickly could tell he was an EXCELLENT trainer. He took a lot of time to talk to me and helped me with advice over the phone without me even being a client. You can tell it’s not just a job, but a vocation. He saved me some money but If I ever need further training services this is where I will go. Can’t recommend enough. Mochi is a 1 year old Maltese weighing a whopping 4lbs and she’s the sweetest thing who just needed a little help with potty training! Thanks again!
Rick is super sweet and a great person overall! Our pup did the board & training with him and stayed with Rick for 2 weeks. We got pictures and videos of our pup the entire stay! After his training our pup has improved so much in foundational training and we look forward to working with him again soon!
Rick is very knowledgeable and patient. He will explain things to you and work with your dog at the same time
Rick was so helpful and never passed judgement on me as a dog owner! I walked away from my session feeling confident about the commands to use with my almost 3 year old pup! Rick really made sure that I understood and showed me techniques and encouraged me as I attempted after watching his example. Loved my experience!
Priority number one is your dog. Amy, Rick and Zach are great dealing with humans too! This is the only boarding facility I have ever felt like they loved my dogs more than I love them which is A LOT!!!
