Doggy Day Care in Backus

“Nancy was amazing for my Sadie! And what an angel of a human, went above and beyond for not only my dog but myself. Very early in the morning pushed my car out when I got stuck, and still let us come back 😅 Sadie was nice and tired each day when she came home which is exactly what I hope for! Would absolutely recommend Nancy for your pups.”

“I was incredibly relieved to find it’s not male dogs my dog has issues with, it’s the dog. Her black lab is incredibly sweet and docile. My dog actually whined with excitement as we got close, the second day. She was super flexible with drop off times”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 4. I’ve had dogs, cats, and other small creatures. I do well with grooming, bathing, walks, and car rides. I’m currently doing online college. So I’m home all day! I have a fenced in yard for your fur babies. Hope to hear from you soon! I have a fenced in yard, leashes, to keep your fur baby safe. Plenty of access to walk and shade, and beds! Big or small

“Jeannette and Zachary took great care of our little puppy! So thankful for such a loving dog sitter!”

“Buddy really enjoyed his time at Diane's-- She did an excellent job with him across the 4 days. She was communicative, sent photos and flexible with drop-off and pickup times. A perfect option for a few dog free days while visiting the Crosslake area. Will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and now have a german shepherd and blue heeler of my own that keeps life exciting with play and training. I am currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for others pets and am available most days for care such as dog walking, pop-ins, or all day care! I have my own fur babies, a gentle giant german shepherd and a blue heeler and do training with them daily. We have 40 acres so they get plenty of exercise and play time. I keep many different toys and treats in the home for rewards! I am a animal lover and treat my pets like my kids!

About: I am a huge animal lover! I have 3 cats, 2 are 9 years old and 1 is 8 years old, all boys, and I also have a 6 year old black lab. I take my cats outside, take them for walks in there stroller, play with there toys, make frozen tuna snacks, and love them with everything I have they are currently in the cities with my mom. My dog is very active we got for walks everyday, play with all his toys, LOVES to swim/bathtime and he’s a huge water baby. I also make homemade dog treats and ice cream! Anything my pets want they get and would do that for anyone’s pets because they all deserve the best life possible! I treat any animal with love and compassion and can’t wait for your pets to spend time with us! Currently my cats are staying in the cities with my mom and it’s just me my boyfriend and our dog! It fits in my daily schedule from the moment I wake up and until I go to sleep! Breakfast, a few snacks through the day, potty breaks, and supper time. Make sure they are taken care of, feed, potty breaks and play time. I also have a 6 year old black lab at home with me and your fur baby will have someone to keep company as well other than me.

“Grace is amazing! She helped me out in short notice to a situation I had and took great care of my dog. She made the whole process so easy and stress free. So helpful!”

About: I've had a dog since I was five. We got her from a cabin up North who was not a breeder. From the moment we got her to the moment she passed, she was my puppy. I taught her all the tricks she knew, I walked her, I did everything with her. She was 15 years old when she passed two falls ago. My family now just got a puppy during Covid. Again, when I am living at home (not at school), she's my dog. My fiancé and I moved to Pequot Lakes in April 2023. We now have a Springer Spaniel puppy named Maverick, who will be 2 in April. I work in Crosby, but I am out the door early in the morning and typically back by 3:30 pm. I could do a really early morning visit, but the afternoon/evenings would fit my schedule better during the week. Otherwise, I work from home on Fridays and the weekends my schedule is more open. When I go for walks, I ALWAYS make sure I have poop bags with me as I hate when people don't pick up after their dogs. I'm not afraid to pick up after dogs!

About: I have cared for all kinds of animals since I could remember, from raccoons, rats, horses, and Guinea pigs to your more normal cats and dogs and lizards. I currently have a pup so I do pet care every day all day. She is a part of my family so she is never lacking when it comes to her care and exercise. I currently live in a townhouse and I don’t have a yard so we go for long walks on the edge of town multiple times a day as well as car rides. In my clients home I use the resources they have available (big yard either fenced or not) or we will just go for walks throughout the day. I make the care of the client the priority.
