Get a loud of those toe beans!!!! Pretty impressive, Xi!!!
Ah, sisterly love... 😋💕
Peaches and Delilah have been an absolute delight to hang out with this week while their humans are extra busy with work!!!
Is your dog stressed out with training? Working through fear, anxiety, or reactivity? Does your training plan include ways to blow off steam that directly addresses their problematic behavior AND fills their emotional cup so they have space to work through the hard feelings? ♥
Stress recovery is accomplished through intentional, skilled application of principles for observation. All that nerdy stuff is boooorrrrinnnggg when you are EXHAUSTED and just want to have sound solutions that get you on the right track. 🤓
Good news! We can, will, and do help people like you all the time: you got your dog to ENJOY HER, period. We're here to fill in those gaps and work with you closely to give you the space to breathe, play, and adventure through this gift that is life with your pup. 🥹
Want to have a pup that looks at you like THIS when you come home from a long day of work: fulfilled but not zonked out of their minds, happy to see you but not desperate for playtime, and tail wagging with glee? 🥰 Get them walked with people who know how to enrich them rather than exhaust them! Don't know anybody? Reach out to us- we may know a few! 😁
Hey hey hey, it’s our new buddy, Reggie! 👋
Reggie will be trialing our service options to find his perfect fit! He’s a recent rescue with a lot of energy starting to learn all about decompression outside his neighborhood with walks every other day. 🌲
Hike! Dig! Sniff! Roll! The secret to long-lasting, effective behavior change starts by letting dogs be dogs. ☺️
IT’S NATIONAL DOG DAY!
How are you celebrating your #1 best buddies today?! 😊
Miss Bella certainly paints a most beautiful picture - she's absolutely glowing! ☺️☀️
Is it time for Day Camp yet?!? We already can't wait to see this smile again next week!! 🤩
Zuko says have a sniff-tastic Tuesday, y'all!!! 👃
Now who is this adorable, happy gal? 😍
We had the privilege of watching sweetie pie Rona over this past weekend while her humans were away at their wedding! We couldn't have been more thrilled to spend so much time with such a special girl! 🥰
Cloud 9's aim is always to provide your pet with the best pet sitting care around, so that you can have absolute peace of mind during your time away from home-- whether that's just another long work day, or whether it's your BIG day!!
Hey, head's up: CATCH! 😄
Does your dog struggle to eat food? So do MANY of our clients in the beginning! Check out our stories for advice on how to help your pup become a more reliable eater. 🍪
When you're enjoying a nice nap and then somebody walks in and wakes you up:
(It's the worst until they break out the wet food...then never mind, it's just fine! 😆)
Nice to meet you, Poppy!!! This precious former mill-mom is working through separation anxiety under the guidance of a behavior consultant, and we're filling in that time for her through providing care while her mom runs to appointments. is not always convenient for our behavior plans, but having processes in place is what keeps them going.
This is hard work from committed parents, and we're more than thrilled to maintain and propel forward progress! 🥳
If you’re away from Kalamazoo, please be aware of an outage with Verizon carrier services!!!! Not to worry- our management team has everything situated to ensure staff are supported and, in turn, services continue with minimal interruption.
An email went out to clients with services scheduled through Monday with additional instructions and a notice. Clients with delayed arrivals received a personal message. 😊
Worry less when you’re away: we’ve got you covered! ✅
Hello there, Wrigley! We're having a blast having this spunky gal in day camp to experience a structured environment to BOTH meet her social needs and work on her typical teenager behaviors. She is a DOLL to spend time with and carefully integrating with appropriate play partners. 😇
Maeby has some opinions about her walk ending...don't worry, girlfriend: we will have more fun to come! 😘 Excellent opportunity to provide clarity in no-choice moments which ensures behaviors that occur work well for both ends of the leash! 😉
KITTEN. SEASON. Precious playful rambunctious kitts!!!!! 🥰😍 Shout out to all our local rescues working incredibly hard to foster, adopt, and care for cats in our community. ❤
A bow that is truly an invite to play! 😍Though bowing postures can mean numerous things, from "de-escalation" due to discomfort, to welcoming play, to a simple stretch, we LOVE seeing a nice yoga pose from a giddy pup ready to have some fun!
That there is one good sploot, Athena! Wishing everybody a Sunday as relaxing as this!
Pictured: us trying to keep up with regular social media updates -
Just know we love and appreciate all of you and want to share all of your incredibly unique and heartwarming stories all the time! We’re just hands-on hustling about to better ourselves all the time, so we “walk the walk” more than talk about it, but we DO want to talk about it more and look forward to sharing more stories with our town soon! 😍
The pleasure of catching up with old friends NEVER gets old! 😊
Henry enrolled in group classes with us in 2022, then reached out at the start of summer for assistance with private training for behavior modification needs in preparation for some life changes ahead!
It was SUCH a delight to work with them to give them the skills they need to work through Henry’s behavior. His humans committed to the process, asked questions, took notes, and got to WORK! And, we had plenty of fun and curiosity along the way. 😊
Lovely work: claps, snaps, and *click-treats* all around for this family!
Rambo is such a brave boy with his training! This guy has been attending day training sessions to work on building his confidence to prepare for a big move. He's a total sweetheart but feels shy and uncertain about many things in the world, so we're laying the foundation of skills to improve his clarity (meaning, knowing what situations are and are not a choice and how to handle them) and his confidence (meaning, developing a sense of security and ability to use other strategies for exploring the world with his nose or eating food to process what's going on around him). We've had a fabulous time so far over the past two weeks and look forward to more! 🤓
We are SO PROUD of Athena! After years of stranger feelings work through her humans' efforts, she accepted a provider with just a casual Meet & Greet!!! It is our PRIVILEGE to care for her while her human is away backpacking over the past week as her personality has shown through all week. Smooches!!! 😘
Watching new friendships blossom and grow between pups is one of the most rewarding parts of working in the pet care industry! Bella and Rosie have slowly become the fastest of friends over this summer’s Day Camp sessions, and we couldn’t love spending time with the two of them more!!! 🩶🐾🖤
I just love a sassy kitty that isn’t afraid to speak their mind—and Miss Sarita certainly fits the bill! 😸
We're lucky enough to spend a whole week with brothers, Cyrus and Benny!!! Lovely quality time with a standard package to keep them comfortably at home while their people are away: and plenty of play and love for us!!! 🥰
Holly starts the week out with a chauffer to and from her groom to be spick-and-span for this upcoming humidity! 💟
Just ~chicken~ in on everyone; hope you had a lovely weekend! 🐔
New Review Alert! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"We found Cloud 9 when our usual PetCare options were unavailable to us. And are we ever thrilled to have found them! We have two cats who are a bit skittish around strangers, so we are very particular about who they come in contact with. We were more than pleased with Cloud 9. They communicated with us twice daily with updates and pictures of our pets that did much to alleviate our concerns about them. Our pets were very content when we arrived home and were clearly very well cared for. We will be using Cloud 9 PetCare for the foreseeable future. I highly recommend them!"
Always a DELIGHT to meet new friends—they never stay shy with us forever! 🥰🐈

Melanie and her human enjoying walks again with a loose leash and trained attention away from people! 🎉 Melanie needed assistance walking without pulling, barking and growling at people and dogs, and would get hyper-fixated on scents to relieve stress from her big feelings. She would pull and stand on her hind legs on the end of the leash to frantically attempt to climb up people. All behaviors that make life difficult in a busy neighborhood, and Melanie’s person believes small dogs should have the same level of training as larger ones to have the fullest life possible! 🏡 Her human put in the work to get CONSISTENT with Melanie, meaning giving her clear criteria. Dogs aren’t humans—they don’t understand “rules” and what they “should” do in our world. Showing a dog what is available and eliminating unnecessary stressors in outside life got this pair where they need to be—they even went to an event at church, greeted everyone politely, and sat in the pews hanging out! Their next stop will be a summer trip out to South Haven. 🥰 Giving a dog clear communication requires skillful observation and application of proper progressions to get to the next step. While it’s reinforcing to us to “reduce” behavior, what dogs actually need is MORE options on behaviors to fulfill their purposes in order to thrive. Your trainer needs to have put in the mileage and have a cabinet of experienced and skilled peers to efficiently and effectively analyze your dog. ✅ Needing support? We offer training assistance to give you everything you need to be a clear communicator with your dog, and we have various connections in and out of state of professional-quality trainers with appropriate oversight, certifications, and experience to help link ya with someone else if need be! 😊
Our gentle friend, Cybele, enjoying a swim!!!! This girl took to the pool like a fish: we implemented careful grading of her introduction to swims to give her as much agency over the progression of her experience as possible, with mindful use of positioning from Jordan in the water to work with her sensitivity to spatial pressure so she stayed comfortable while simultaneously receiving clear direction on how and when to safely return herself to the ramp to maximize her independence while exercising. After all the walks over the years, it was our pleasure to get to splash with you, Cyb!
