Dog Boarding in Courtland

“I am so glad I have Teralyn near me. My RuthAnne was tail wagging excited when I dropped her off. Can’t get better review then a big ole tail wag.”

“Joy took wonderful care of our dog. She sent pictures and was very communicative. Our dog seemed very happy while in her home. I would definitely recommend Joy to others, and we plan on using her again.”

“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”

“AylaJean is wonderful! I had such a great vacation because I didn't have to worry about my kitties' care while we were away. She sent regular updates until we got back and my kittens were happy and healthy when we returned. We'll definitely be hiring this family again for future trips. Thank you so much!”

Ashley M.

“Maisie was such an amazing help to us! She was very attentive to our newly rescued dachshund and was extremely communicative with us during the sit. She really cares about the pets she sits and we had a great experience with her helping sit Sophie while we were away for Thanksgiving. We will absolutely be booking her again, thank you! 🩵”

“Sage had a great time with Lynn and Lynn kept me updated on how Sage was doing through out the whole time I was away. Would definitely have Lynn watch Sage again.”

Kyle B.

“Heidi is one of the best dog sitters we have ever had! She and her son took amazing care of Vinny. She sent me pictures every day (and I mean each day) of her son snuggling, playing, and reading stories with Vinny. She was nice enough to drop Vinny off at our house so that he would be there when we got home since we had a late flight. We are already about to message Heidi to watch Vinny again!”

Nofiya D.

“My dogs love Mimi and Nicole! I will always bring them to their house whenever I need a sitter. I know I can trust them and they even send me pictures frequently letting me know how they are doing.”

Kaylee S.

“Beth and family were awesome to my fur baby. My GoodleDoodle enjoyed all the attention and play time and came home tired out which was great for me to relax to. Will definitely use again!”

About: I started taking care of colleague's pets in 2006 and regularly cared for 4 households' pets including, a German Shepherd, black lab, poodle, and multiple cats. I also volunteered at the Humane Society in AZ for a few years with the adoptable cats at PetSmart, cleaning their cubbies, litterboxes, and helping with socialization. I continued petsitting after finding an ad on Craigslist for a family in my area and watched their home while they traveled over the summer (for 3 years), taking care of their plants, mail, and two dogs - a husky and a greyhound. I would walk them and feed them twice a day, shop for chicken legs at the owner's request, and administered multiple medications in pill form to the husky. They introduced me to their neighbors and I watched their home when they would travel and fed and cleaned up after their English Bulldog and Yorkie at least two times a day. I also watched a friend's senior dachshund regularly when they went out of town. In Phoenix I housesat for a colleague and her partner on multiple occasions and they had 4 dogs and 2 cats. I would stay the night there to feed and care for the animals and keep an eye on the house. I simply left for work and then went there immediately after. I moved back to MN in 2020. In the fall of 2020, I helped my sister care for a family friend's hobby farm which had goats, sheep, donkeys, cats, dogs, ducks, and chickens. We mucked out the barn every day and hosed out the stable area, let the chickens out in the morning and locked them in the coop at night, fed all of the animals, moved a fence most days for the donkeys and some of the larger animals to roam outside of the regular fenced-in area. I also traveled to Champlin to watch a German shepherd and stayed there while the family went on vacation a few times. Over the Christmas holiday in 2022, I watched a friend's Vizsla/Lab mix who is 11 and took care of things around her house. I fed the pup twice a day and visited midday to take her out and spend time there from anywhere between 30 minutes to a few hours. She would then spend the night with me at my home. I took care of the mail, ran water so the pipes wouldn't freeze, cleaned up after the dog, etc. Watching an animal made me realize how much I missed pet sitting and wanted to start doing it again, so I started helping out whenever I could. Most recently, I have watched a Bernese Mtn Dog, Akita Inu, and 4 cats at one residence and regularly housesit at another when the owner is gone for work on the weekends. I also stayed up in Duluth for a week to watch a friend's home, large lab, and cat. I work in St Peter during the week and am done at noon on Mondays. The rest of the week, I work anywhere between 7:30 am to 5:30 pm. I am able to take long lunches to feed or let animals out midday and my weekends are free. I grew up with cats and now have 2 pets of my own, a Belgian Malinois/Corgi mix puppy, named Marty, and a 4-year-old munchkin cat named Elliot. My soul dog (pug) Bo crossed the rainbow bridge in June 2025. I am available overnights, before and after work. My schedule is 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, with some flexibility. My weekends are wide open for any pet care or home needs. I have a fenced backyard and large home. I would prefer watching animals in your home and caring for them there as they are typically more comfortable but we do have the space if necessary in my home. Walking, feeding, administering medication, assisting with household duties, etc., are all within reason and things I'd be happy to assist with. I have done these things for multiple families and households in my area.

“Murphy loves being at Collette's place. She always goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care if dogs. She gave my dog shower twice because he went out and rolled in the mud first time. My dog is always happy at collette's place😊”

About: I grew up caring for my two dogs and two cats, giving me extensive experience with both species from an early age. I currently help care for my friend's dog with walks and potty breaks when she is away, and I frequently snuggle and bond with my roommate's cat. What sets me apart is my constant supervision from my remote job and my genuine appreciation for each pet's unique personality. I am comfortable handling animals in various environments, and I have personal experience going on adventures and hikes with my friends' pets. I love directing my attention and extra love toward their individual characteristics. Since I work a remote, part-time job, my schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy taking myself on walks and would love to add a furry companion to the mix, ensuring they get multiple, long walks and frequent outdoor breaks. While I don't have a fenced yard, I am available to provide frequent, potty breaks and am committed to walking your dog multiple times daily for exercise and enrichment. Safety is my top priority, and I am careful to secure all doors and follow all of your instructions.

“Gave updates about every other day throughout the stay, was very responsive, and I felt my pup was well taken care of 😊”

About: I have had pets my whole life that have lived in the house. We have dogs, cats, and even a lizard I have taken care of! I was home alone a lot so taking care of my animals is first priority and a habit. I am a college student and working a seasonal job so there is times to for me to show your pet some love and taken care of! I have no pets at our apartment but we do live close to some parks and our backyard has plenty grass to play in! There is room if your pet has to be crated as well!

About: I have 3 animals myself. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I have done my own training with my animals. I will do anything for the animals I take care for. They are a best friend to their owners so they should be treated like a person I have a set schedule with my full time job and I’m able to work around my schedule and I’m able to do walks after my job. I will make sure the dogs are able to have a clean living space and make sure they have food and water. Give them loves while their owners are out of the house.

About: Hello! I am a HUGE dog lover and I would love to hang out with your fur babies! Long walks, beachin, park dates, fetch, and cuddles are some of my favorite things, if this sounds like your pup I think we will become the best of friends! I have many years of dog walking and sitting experience and we always have the best time and I look forward to seeing my little friends again soon. I have no preferences on breeds and any size. I do have a Puggle (pug and beagle) at home and he gets along well with all dogs. If you have any specific questions, I’d love to connect with you and answer any question you may have. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! ~Ciara
