“Live, Laugh, Ruff!”
Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a proud (doggie) Mom to Arbor - my 5 month old Border Collie & Australian Shepard mix. Arbor is very lucky to have 3 sisters( my parent's doggies) nearby to spend tons of time playing with and I care for them often. Not only have I always been lucky to have a dog, I also have experience boarding, running a doggy day care and walking dogs. I feel SO lucky to be able to work with doggies for a living and I look forward to meeting yours!

Hi, I am an experienced college student. I have grown up around animals my whole life. From a young age I would volunteer at shelters and foster animals. Right now I own two adorable dogs of my own. I have a Pomeranian and an English Bulldog. I love the outdoors and strolling through my neighborhood. When I am walking dogs I like to let them pick the walk and how we will be doing things, it’s their walk so they get to decide.

Hi my name is Shayley! I am a college student that is living away from home. Living away from home means I am away from my two dogs. I have a Golden Retriever and a Chihuahua Terrier mix that are my two best friends. Being away from them means I need to find my puppy fix else where which is why I would love to walk your dog! I have lots of experience with all types of dogs and love getting outside and know how important it is that a dog gets their walk!

“A walker, a runner, and a great fetch player.”
I started dog walking/sitting when I was 16. I have worked with newfoundlands to chihuahuas and everything in between. I have stayed with animals overnight, and my overnight duties included feeding, walking, giving medicine, and making sure the dogs were happy. I love working with animals and being outside.

Hello! My name is Erin. I love dogs, but our current situation does not allow for us to responsibly own a dog. Because of this, I would love to be able to spend time with your fur child! I enjoy taking walks on trails, sidewalks, near rives, around my building, literally about anywhere. I have grown up with dogs, and always enjoyed the peace and exercise that came from taking them out for walking adventures! I have walked both large and small dogs and enjoy the experience both can bring.

I have always been an animal lover, growing up with all sorts of animals. I've grown attached to dogs as I've met so many on my walks/ dog sittings. Wag has allowed me to meet all different breeds of dogs and I'm so grateful! In my free time I walk dogs, do drop in visits, dog sit at pet parents homes, and occasionally pet sit at my home. I hope to interact and spend time with many more pups along the way. ❤

Dog Boarding in Holland
Holland, Michigan is celebrated for its charming downtown and sandy white beaches along the shores of Lake Michigan. For animals in need of humane care and placement into homes in Holland and the surrounding county of Ottawa, the Harbor Humane Society provides a range of services.
The Harbor Humane Society was founded in 1956 as Ottawa Shores Humane Society. Harbor Humane Society’s mission is "to provide a safe harbor for animals entrusted to our care as we strive to secure their future through out outreach and educational programs".
This non-profit organization has a successful 100% placement rate for the animals who pass through their program. In 2016, they took in 549 stray dogs, 80 dogs from owner surrender, 32 transferred animals, and 56 other intakes. Of these homeless hounds, 336 found fur-ever homes, 280 were reunited with their owners, 21 were transferred and there were 61 euthanized. The only animals who are euthanized are those who are gravely ill or of such aggressive temperament they cannot be placed in homes.
The Harbor Humane Society offers a spay and neuter clinic. They provide a range of educational opportunities to teach about animal care and management. The program relies heavily on volunteers, who receive orientation and specialized training to work with the animals. Happy hounds in this harbor area of Ottawa County ought-ta-wag-a tail of happiness for the love and care they can find through this organization.
