Doggy Day Care Cooper

About: I've cared for over 15 different dog breeds since I was 10 years old, from high energy hunting dogs to cozy lap snugglers. Friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets for years. With 8 years in animal welfare, I understand behavior and emotions, including noise fears, nervousness with new people, leash reactivity, shy/timid, resource guarding, seniors, puppies, and special needs pets. I also care for cats of all personalities independent explorers, playful toy lovers, and devoted snugglers. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, stress free home where they feel truly cared for while you're away. Each dog in my care receives personalized attention and love. For daycare and boarding, I limit to two dogs at a time to ensure quality care while they are in a new environment. When house sitting in your home, I can happily care for up to four dogs, keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I’m happy to provide photo updates, and our home is fully prepared for play, rest, and supervision. I’m home during the day, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and enrichment. Every pet in my care enjoys a healthy balance of play, mental stimulation, walks, and quiet time to rest and recharge. Evenings are cozy and relaxed, filled with gentle supervision and snuggles, so pets feel safe, happy, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced yard with secure gate locks to keep pets safe, and I’m happy to make adjustments using leads or harnesses for curious or adventurous pups. I also maintain an up-to-date list of urgent care and emergency veterinary clinics throughout the metro area for added peace of mind. Potential clients are always welcome to schedule a video home tour to see the setup and environment their pet would be in. My home allows for kenneling if needed, and I can provide large and extra large crates. I also offer separate spaces for feeding time and am located near several nearby parks for walks. For cats, I can provide a quiet, separate space if they need time to decompress. In addition to care in my home, I also offer house sitting so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routines. I’m located about 15 minutes from MSP Airport, which many traveling pet parents find convenient for drop-off and pick-up. Street parking is available in the area, and rideshares to the airport are typically around $20.

“Lucy, our 1yo lab/shepherd mix loved staying with Lydia! Lydia sent photos and updates, so we felt like we knew how things were going. We appreciate that she was well cared for while we were unavailable.”

She sent tons of pictures of him while I was at work and said he played all day -- which was perfect! I'm definitely going to be rebooking in the future. :-) Walter was pooped once we got home.”

About: Hi! We're lifelong dog lovers with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. We have two friendly dogs of our own who are part of the family, so we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Our home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a safe and secure space to play, explore, and burn off energy. Over the years, we've cared for many dogs through pet sitting and have also fostered dogs, giving us experience with different temperaments, routines, and special needs. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax and get plenty of cuddles, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. We treat every dog as if they were our own and are committed to providing reliable, attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. We can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! We are a loving family of 2 adults and 2 dogs. One of us works from home full time and the other works not too far away from home so your pets will be well loved. We have a fenced yard to keep your doggies safe and 2 dogs of our own that love having "friends" over. We have done foster care for dogs and have also dog sat dogs.

About: We have a double lot that is fenced in with lots of squirrels in the tree for your dog to keep track of. There is also a small but fun little dog that loves to play and run around. When your dog gets tired, there are ample laps available for hanging out indoors. Experienced dog sitters looking to help out the dogs who don’t want to be home alone all day, or help you get out for a trip. We both have very flexible work schedules, and boarding and daycare can include walks, yard hangs, and precise food schedules. Walks are already built into a daily routine. I have a fully fenced in yard that is tall enough to keep most dogs from jumping. Depending on the dogs needs, I am happy to limit outside time to walks or supervised yard play.

“Lizzy & her husband took GiGi for a fun hour long walk in the snow. They gave her a lot of attention and cuddles. They will be great caregivers for your pet.”

“Michelle was super friendly and scheduled a meet and greet to ensure my dogs got along with her sweet Stewie. She was communicative and accommodated my lab’s food allergies taking precautions to keep Mr. Counter Surfer from getting into things. The dogs came home wiped from their fun day and I will definitely be scheduling another play date with Michelle and Stewie in the near future!”
