SERVICES
Care That Fits Your Dog
Our services support dogs through daily routines, learning, and time away from home, with a focus on safety, structure, and comfort.
​
Daycare provides supervised outdoor activity, training builds confidence and communication, and boarding offers a calm, familiar place to stay. Each service works on its own or together for dogs who benefit from consistency.
DOG DAY OUT
Dog Daycare
Mittens Animal Care offers structured dog daycare designed for both enrichment and balance. Each Dog’s Day Out includes supervised small-group play, guided trail walks across our private 15-acre property, and reinforcement of recall and basic manners. Convenient pickup and drop-off options make high-quality daycare easy for families across Nunica, Grand Haven, Spring Lake, and the surrounding Lakeshore.
SMARTER DOGS
Dog Training
Our dog training programs focus on clear communication and dependable, real-world behavior. Training is offered through one-on-one sessions or small groups, with an emphasis on recall, leash manners, and impulse control. Using positive, relationship-based methods, we create custom training plans that can be reinforced during daycare to support consistent progress and long-term success.
SLEEP OVERS
Dog Boarding
Dog boarding at Mittens is coming soon. We’re building an overnight experience rooted in the same structure, routine, and calm dogs know from our Dogs Day Out program. Boarding will be designed for familiarity and consistency, giving dogs a place they can truly relax while away from home.
