"Loved this service! They provided the services within the times I requested, then ended each visit by texting me a photo of my pet in her home to show how well she was doing. Responses to my texts were prompt and friendly, and I was very happy with the final total for expenses. The scheduling coordinator is absolutely wonderful as well. I plan to use them for years! "

We absolutely love Doggie Latchkey! We randomly found them this past Thanksgiving when I called our normal boarding facility a month in advance to reserve services and they were fully booked. Completely forgot to find a replacement and one week prior to our trip I was frantically searching for something. Luckily I found this company!!

"I have 3 basset hounds and cannot imagine ever boarding them. Having Doggie latchkey has been such a weight off my shoulders when I travel! When I first requested service they sent over the person who would be watching my dogs (Joni) so I could meet her and she could meet my dogs. Now I feel so comfortable leaving knowing my pups are in great hands. I get tons of pictures and text messages from her when she comes over and she is even able to accommodate my 14 year old basset with her special medication she gets twice a day. I highly recommend!!."

Denise and her Team are amazing! I cannot say enough good things about them all. We moved my mom and due to health reasons she needed help walking her dog. They are caring, trustworthy, on time, and communicate so well also! They always go above and beyond. Covid19 has not slowed them down. They take every precaution to keep everyone safe. Just today, on Memorial Day we had a slight emergency and needed help with our puppy. They jumped right in to help! They are worth every penny we pay.

"We depend on this local, family-owned business as our go-to trusted resource to care for our pets while we’re out-of-town. The Doggie Latchkey team is responsive, reliable and incredibly accommodating even for our wild last-minute requests. They make the process easy and stress-free, so you can relax knowing everything is in good hands. And better yet, you can tell they are true pet lovers who care for your pet as if it’s one of their own. Rob even texted us updates and photos of our dog (who looked very happy to see him)! And the app sends status updates and allows you to make adjustments and send notes. We love that we no longer have to find a way to guide our elderly golden retriever in the car to take him to a strange place. Now he can stay in his comfortable surroundings at home and keep his daily routine. Highly recommend Doggie Latchkey and their valuable support—they are the best team in town!"

Doggie Latchkey is a terrific organization! Anne Marie bends over backwards to make her visit fun for my two pups Aston & Cooper. When moving back to GR, we were concerned that our dog walker would be tough to replace. She was practically a member of the family but Anne Marie is quickly filling that role. She sends texts and photos of her walks with them, and leaves a note. As an animal lover and a board member at an animal rescue, I care about who interacts with my dogs. DLK is consistently considerate, respectful and timely. I give DLK five stars plus, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone who is concerned about who comes into their home or who takes responsibility for their four-legged family members.

I am new to Grand Rapids and was looking for someone to check on my cat when I went out of town. I found doggie latchkey simply by google, so I wasn't sure what I would get! Erik came over and met smokey first and went over his services. We were really impressed with his professionalism. We were away for 10 days and he checked on the cat for me 5 times. He was prompt in emailing me after every visit to tell me how he was doing. When I got home - the cat was perfect. He was fed, had new water and everything was cleaned up. I will be using Doggie Latchkey again and would recommend him to anyone!

I used Doggie Latchkey for the first time last week for 5 days. I have 3 hens that live in a run/coop in my yard and 2 indoor cats. Sarah, our pet sitter, previously had no experience with farm animals, so I briefly showed her the ropes. She ended up doing a FANTASTIC job with ALL pets!! I was so impressed. She took great care of everyone, brought in our mail, watered plants, and sent me daily visit reports. She's a gem! It was so nice to feel at ease while traveling, knowing that my critters and property were well-cared for. I highly recommend this service and will most definitely be using them again!

We've been using doggie latchkey for our two cats for almost five years now! I have high anxiety about leaving our cats while on vacation and since we started using doggie latchkey, that is no longer a problem. They are super flexible and responsive. We've had the same sitter (shout out to Beth!) almost the whole time so our cats are very comfortable with her. We typically book day visits for weekends or short trips but last time we were gone for over a week we used the overnight sits and it was wonderful! Denise always responds to my requests asap and is always so responsive when I call for last minute requests.

Doggie Latchkey is The Best. We've used them for over three years now, and we completely trust them with our three dogs. Joni, our primary sitter, is AMAZING-reliable, dependable, texts me pics during each visit, and loves our dogs like her own. Knowing that Doggie Latchkey provides a back up (and/or a back up to the back up) if ever needed provides enormous peace of mind. If you are looking for a pet sitter, you MUST check out Doggie Latchkey.

Doggie Latchkey has been excellent! I was a nervous wreck to leave my puppy last week but our dog sitter, Kelly, has been phenomenal and made this transition a breeze. I was immediately reassured at our "meet and greet" that our puppy Junie would be in excellent hands. Kelly has exceeded my expectations and I don't know what we would do without her. The highlight of my day is receiving Kelly's texts with pictures of Junie and a description of what they did while she was at our house. Kelly is so professional, warm and caring and I truly feel she loves Junie as much as we do. Doggie Latchkey has been so responsive to any question or change that we have needed to make - thank you!

I have used all kinds of pet sitting services, kennels, open environment boarding businesses in various cities all over the country, and none have made me feel as comfortable and cared for as Doggie Latchkey does when I have to spend time away from my puppies. I would highly recommend using Doggie Latchkey to anyone looking for puppy sitting services!

We are so happy with Doggie Latchkey! We found them last year and couldn't be happier with the service they provide. Heather, our dog walker, is wonderful with our golden Kona and he is always so excited when she comes for his walks. She wears him out and is willing to play chuck it with him too to get some of that extra energy out. Denise, the owner, has also been wonderful to work with and is very accommodating with our last minute appointments. Would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a dog walker in the Novi area!

Thank you so very much to Doggie Latchkey!!!! We hired this company to walk, feed, and watch over my mom's dog while she had just moved into an assisted living facility. Shortly after, Covid 19 hit... and they continued to go above and beyond to keep my mom's dog happy and healthy! Without their excellent care and reliability, I don't think my mom's dog could have stayed with her. We have had multiple new challenges during this difficult time in our world... But Denise and all of the employees have been incredible. I do not know what I would have done without them. I would recommend them to everyone and anyone I know! Thank you Doggie Latchkey!!!!!

Doggie Latchkey has been wonderful to work with and wonderful to our best buddy. They are efficient and organized when it comes to scheduling (i.e., daily walks as well as pet sits when we're away from home) and billing. We have 2 steady walkers: Robin and Nancy, both of which are amazing. I feel like both of them genuinely care for our dog. I can also tell that he really enjoys his time with them too 😉 It is especially important to us that when we're away for business, he's comfortable, safe and well-cared for. The luxury of being away from home without having to worry about him makes Doggie Latchkey worth every penny.
