Doggy Day Care Diamond Lake

“McKenzie was amazing with my fearful chihuahua. She listed to his needs and more than delivered. We were visiting out of town and requested last minute. She was very responsive, kind, and accommodating. It gave us the ability to go see the museum and other things with the comfort in knowing his needs were met!”

“Everything with Lisa worked out great! She was flexible with drop off and pick up timing. My dog had lots of outdoor time in the fenced in backyard to run and play with Lumi and Lisa. We also received updates, photos, videos throughout the day.”

“Jessica was amazing - sent lots of updates & pictures, & my pup had the best time!”

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.

“Dana is fantastic, she takes great care in making sure your little one acclimates to their new surroundings and mingles well with her pups. She is super responsive with communication and responses, and has been very flexible with changes in scheduling! She has been watching our little Ricky on a consistent basis multiple times a week, he can be a bit anxious but has taken to liking her quite quickly, we feel super comfortable leaving him in her care and would highly recommend!”

Todd & Debbie R.

“Deanna is so welcoming to both me and my pet! I have been delighted with her care and communication. It makes all the difference in the world to leave my pet with a kind, caring, fun person and home and that's Deanna! My dog, Foxy, runs right up to her and comes back with a smile and signs of a fun day! Thanks, Deanna!!”

“My dog, Cassi, has stayed at River's home for daycare and soon, will be there overnight. She has a large fenced backyard and a large german shepherd Luther. The dogs alternate between play outside and relaxing inside. She seems very competent at managing different dog's energies and needs. It isn't just a free for all playgroup. RIver makes sure dogs are a good match and supervises closely.”

“Grace &Luke were the absolute BEST with Simba. My pup doesn’t love everyone, he was not treated the best at daycares in the past, I can see Grace and Luke matched the energy right away! Simba was crying wanting to go back to her house after we picked him up, that’s how we know he had the best day! We are so relieved to have someone to trust with Simba now❤️”

Mariana & Ivan A.

“We needed help watching our dog during the day while moving and Sally was great! I got multiple very cute updates of him each day and it seemed like he had a great time playing and running in the backyard. She was also very flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

“First doggie sitter for our Harper and did we score big time!! Alyson is amazing. Harper came home happy and tired. It must have been a great time!! Thanks Alyson.”

Rosemary W.

“Jessie took great care of our senior dog! She was very responsive and easy to get in touch with. She sent detailed updates throughout the day and lots of cute photos!”

Mara K.

“I picked George up right after they'd come back from a walk - he obviously had a great time and burned some energy because he got home and went straight for a nap!! I appreciated how responsive Enrique was and flexible with my schedule, I look forward to booking with him again soon!”

Melissa Marie T.

“So, i was pretty nervous to leave my precious, sick, 4-month-old furbaby with an internet stranger. But we had good conversations beforehand and he had lots of good reviews. Well, the reviews are well deserved! Puppy had a fine time. Howie (and his wife) clearly took great care of her! Would definitely book again. I just need to figure my schedule out.”

Kristy K.

“Susie did an amazing job with our pup Quinn! She was very communicative and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend Susie for your pets care!”

Sydney S.

“Amanda and Adam were so amazing with Winnie! Our dog is 1.5 years and has so much energy and they were able to tire her out! They gave frequent updates and photos! Winnie also had an upset tummy and they even made her rice ❤️ this has been our best rover experience yet!”

Olivia H.

“Kira and Alejandro were awesome with my pup. Walks and pics and when I got back, he didn’t want to leave. ??‍♀️ They have 2 pups and I could tell mine really liked them. It was a relief to know my pup had such a good day.”

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.

“Stasia is honestly the best. I can’t sing her praises enough. My dog loves her. Stasia is great at personalized care for our dog and has outdoor space for her to play in too!”

Jessica & Matthew R.

“Emilie was so good to my dog, Walter. I felt really comfortable leaving her with him for the whole day. 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.”

Kit M.

“Nicole is absolutely amazing! My little guy is almost 15 weeks and loves to be outside. I greatly appreciated her taking him out for walks, making sure he was happy, taking him out for a multitude of potty breaks (sometimes 2 times in an hour if needed) and keeping me updated throughout the day. I highly recommend Nicole, especially if you want your dog to be well cared for!!”
