I am a dog owner and professional dog trainer in Traverse City, Michigan. A well-trained dog makes a great traveling companion!

Fabulous service and food, just off the beach!

A hidden gem on the East side. The servers are super friendly and on a hot day they are even likely to bring your dog a bowl of water!
This is a nice paved trail with benches for hanging out. If you park at the Carter road trailhead, there is even a caboose photo opp!

Susan is a very conscientious caregiver and is an excellent choice to care for your pets while you are away!

Think outside the dog park! Check out the paved and unpaved trails with your dog. There is a little lake tucked away with a bench that is perfect for sitting with your dog.
I found this trail quieter than the TART in town. There is a caboose for a photo op.

It is always interesting to walk through the marina and out on the pier.

I love this park. It is relatively quiet early in the day and there is a lot of room to walk on the beach!

I always find something new when I visit here.
We always enjoy a walk on the TART!
