Doggy Day Care in Apple Valley

“Nala was very nervous at first for me to leave her, this was her first time sitting, but Monique did a great job introducing her to all the other pups, and by the end of the week Nala was outside playing with everyone all day!”

“Jax's first stay with Leanna went great! She took lots of pictures of his stay and even sent us home with a gift - she made us an absolutely adorable ornament with Jax's paw print! I would definitely choose her again to care for our baby!”

“Walter had a great day with Jie. Appreciated the pics and photos to ease my first day nerves. I can feel the love and kindness that went toward Walter. Looking forward to more days with Jie!”

“Steve and Diane watched Harvest for the first time recently. He had a blast and will definitely be contacting them for additional days. Thanks for taking such good care of my boy!”

“Aish and family are amazingly friendly people who really care about what they do and truly love dogs! I immediately got pictures and videos of them and they were so happy! We will definitely use them again!!!! 🐾💕🐶🫶🏻🐾”

“I am new to the area, and Chelsie was very close by. She responded promptly and communicated clearly. I brought Riley over, and Chelsie kindly met me at the car. I was having some difficulty with the long lead, and Riley immediately went up to her as if they had known each other for a long time. When Riley heard the dogs barking inside the house, she led Chelsie to the door, which was quite charming. I realized I forgot to mention something to Chelsie, but she responded right away. On my way back to pick up Riley, I got caught in traffic, so Chelsie graciously brought Riley out to me, and Riley happily got into the car without any issues. After we returned home, I noticed that Riley's card was filled out, and there was a detailed note, along with photos of Riley's day, showing that she had gone for a walk and played with her dogs. Overall, I would rate the experience as excellent, and Riley will definitely be visiting again.”

About: I am a new empty nester with plenty of space for your pet! I work from home, so plenty of time to give your pet my love and attention! I work from home, so plenty of time to give your pet my love and attention. I can let them out or walk them with a moments notice! I have empty rooms downstairs for your pet to call theirs! I also have a large pen for play time. I own two big dogs but they are kept upstairs with an invisible fence. I also have a large fenced in back yard!

“This is the second time our dog has gone to Amanda, and it has been a positive experience both times. She does some nice long walks and our boy loves that! He comes home good and tired! She’s a very nice person who seems to care for our pup the way she would care for her own. Definitely recommend and will be back again!”

“Don did a great job watching my puppy. He was able to take him on a couple walks, even with some cold weather, and sent updates with pictures and videos. My puppy was really excited to be back the second day that Don watched him. I’d highly recommend Don.”

“I can't speak highly enough about how well Sheryl cared for my dog during a weeklong stay. She kept me updated on how Kira was settling into a full schedule of walks and treats. Sheryl's love of animals is obvious and taking good care of Kira felt more like a priority than a pasttime for her. I will definitely seek out her services in the future.”

“Rachel was so kind and patient with Ava! She did great with Mauer and made sure Ava didn't overheat in the hot ? weather! Rachel sent updates and photos throughout the day, which we appreciated!”

“I would give 10 stars!!!! 5 is not enough!! Mary is a true dog lover!!! Struck gold here, kind of want to keep it a secret to myself, don’t want to share her! Mary is so genuine and I truly felt like I was leaving our sweet pupper with family!!! Above and beyond, plenty of photos and updates kept my mind at ease! Goodie bag to go with homemade doggie treats and cute toys for Valentines!!! ☮️💜 - Sara & Ruby”

“Our two Papillons had their first Doggy Day Care appointment with Alecia and Todd on Sept. 3rd. After I picked them up and arrived back home, I sat them both down and asked them to rate their Day Care visit. Together, they rated their stay with Alecia and Todd '2' paws up which is the the highest rating that Papillons are known to give for events such as this. Afterward, they asked that I book another visit with Alecia and Todd as soon as possible which I was only to happy to do ...”

“Jadyn C. is the most dedicated and loving pet caregiver you can find. I had to take a trip out of the state of Minnesota for 1 week and Jadyn openly reached out offering to take care of my dog (feather). When I came back in town and picked feather up she didn’t want to leave Jadyn’s care because of how much fun they had. Feather could now roll over as I hadn’t taught her that yet due to feather only being about 9 months, but Jadyn taught her how to do it! Jadyn carpenter is amazing and the right fit for this job!”

“Great place to bring your dog!”

“We were very happy with the care our 10-pound Havanese received at Marine's house. She was there for six hours or so, and we would book again. Thank you, Marine!”

About: 🐶 **Your Dog’s New Best Friend Awaits!** 🐶 There’s a reason "dog" is "god" spelled backward—these incredible creatures deserve devotion, and that's exactly what I bring to every dog I meet! For over 20 years, I’ve been living, loving, and learning alongside dogs. Whether it’s a quick glance at a pup on the sidewalk (yes, I’m the one excitedly yelling “Puppy!”) or fostering over 50 dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I’ve dedicated my life to giving dogs the best care possible. Beyond my deep love for dogs, I’ve spent two years professionally training them using positive reinforcement with a healthy dose of affection. In my home, your dog will find everything they need: - A variety of treats and toys tailored to their preferences - Elevated bowls for larger pups & puzzle feeders for quick eaters - Cozy blankets, a spacious 48” kennel, and a snuffle mat for enrichment - A ramp for senior dogs or those with weak joints - Agility equipment for energetic, strong-jointed pups And the best part? My own dog, who would love to meet yours! With all this experience, I don’t just offer dog sitting—I provide a second home, a familiar face, and a loving companion for your furry friend. **Hiring me means entrusting your dog to someone who understands, respects, and cherishes them as much as you do.** I’d love to make your pup feel right at home. Reach out today! Dogs are walked at least 3 times a day, more if the weather permits. They are fed at the same times every day. Of course, I make plenty of time for snuggles and belly rubs! When dog-sitting, I create a welcoming environment, with many toys and blankets to snuggle on. I have potty pads, treats, a fireplace, everything a doggo needs to be comfortable. I have also used music to help soothe a dog. When the dog arrives, it is free to roam around the house, gathering all the smells, finding the toys and treats. I want your dog to be comfortable as quickly as possible.

“Lori was awesome! Will definitely plan on using her again. The location was perfect. And she was very warm and inviting 🤗 was super nice that she sent me a picture and let me know how Buzz was doing! 😍”

“Amazing family that took care of Koda wonderfully! Your pup will be loved and in great hands here 10/10 :)”

“Riley had a blast playing with her new friends. This was a last minute ask and they responded right away with a yes! Couldn't ask for anything better. will definitely be back.”
