I got updates whenever I needed them and the sweetest note from his companion family. I think we're going to like flip-flop dogs!

From the owner: Welcome to FlipFlop® of the Lakeshore where you can be absolutely certain that your beloved canine…read morefriend will enjoy a vacation with a wonderful Companion Family while you are away. My love of dogs led me to a career as a professional dog trainer, and I was fortunate to meet and work with some amazing dog and people customers. Almost every day I was asked for advice and recommendations for care for their dogs. Many people did not want to put their dogs in a kennel, but they did not have other viable options for care. I saw firsthand dogs that were incredibly stressed from being in a traditional kennel environment and it broke my heart. FlipFlop® is the perfect solution. In fact, my family and I loved the idea so much; we decided to become part-time Companions in the summer of 2011. We really enjoyed having friendly dogs in our home for sleepovers and it was a great way to keep our aging Rottweiler, Shelby, on her toes. After such a positive experience as a FlipFlop® Companion Family and researching the benefits of owning a FlipFlop® franchise, making the decision to purchase FlipFlop® of the Lakeshore was easy. Being Companions ourselves we know that the dogs are taken care of properly and are relaxed and happy when they go home. We also recognize that the experience gives FlipFlop's® Customers peace of mind knowing their furry family member is spoiled and loved. In spring of 2011, FlipFlop® of the Lakeshore was open for business...

I didn't want him to be stressed or stay somewhere longer than he needed to. Petworks took him for 2 hours a week before our wedding to make sure he was comfortable with the place.

All the other places we looked at would not allow us to pick up our dog on Sunday we'd have to wait till Monday & pay for the extra day. Being able to pick up our dog when we wanted to was wonderful & they took such good care of him. For the price and the wonderful service you simply cannot best this place!

She was a true blessing. After meeting her and introducing her to my Roxy, who warmed up to her right away, I booked her to watch Roxy during a recent business trip. She was amazing, not only by staying at my house allowing my dog to stay in familiar surroundings. She walked her, played with her and kept her happy. She also went above and beyond by sending me regular pictures and updates. Tammy took what could be a very anxious time for me and put me at ease. It was of great peace of mind and allowed me to focus on my business trip. I would highly recommend her to family and friends. I will be using her service in the future.

I was surprised to go on to the camera to find there was at least 50 dogs in a small area that only had concrete (no turf or beds) and no toys. I saw one bowl of water. There was nothing for the dogs to do except walk in circles and follow the sitters around. They called and said "your dog is exhibiting signs of anxiety" when all he really wants to do is play like a normal dog. They also said "he has a prey drive and goes after small dogs" which i know isn't true because he does not care about other dogs. After trialing today, i can confidently say this place just wants your money and for your dogs to be okay with walking around in circles and not trying to play with other dogs or much of anything. I don't think this place is ethical and would honestly think your dog would be happier at home in his/her crate.
