Get to Know Bittersweet

Owner, Sandra Stern-Krebs, created Bittersweet Pet Resorts nearly 30 years ago in 1996 in Niles, Michigan. Our Niles property, Bittersweet Farms, originated our unique name and the vision of Bittersweet Pet Resorts bloomed from there. Sandra is a licensed Veterinary Technician, a Certified Pet Groomer and has a degree in Animal Science. Her passion and love for pet care gave her the vision to create a place where pets feel right at home, while away from home!

Bittersweet Pet Resorts has now grown into a multi-facility, family-owned and operated business, that offers premier pet lodging, doggy daycare, basic obedience training and professional pet grooming. We have three locations in Niles, Michigan, near Kalamazoo, Michigan, and in Northwest Indiana. We have designed our pet care facilities with one mission: to provide the best pet care services in our local areas. Every pet enjoys the individualized care and love you’d expect from their home-away-from-home!
