“Was very communicative and nice, sent frequent updates and showed flexibility around pick off and drop off time. Our dog was very happy there and came back in a great mood. Would book again 😊”


“Joe was amazing! My dog, Chocolate Chip, loved him and his sweet dog Henry. Joe gave me so many great tips as a first-time dog owner and was incredibly accommodating with my work schedule. I felt completely at ease knowing Chip was in such good hands. We will definitely be booking with Joe again soon!”


“Can't say enough about how grateful I am for Amy. My guy clearly enjoys his time with her based on the pictures she sends - I can tell he is happy and feels safe. I would definitely recommend Amy - 5 stars all the way!”


“Alyson is wonderful! Our pup stayed with her while we were visiting town and I'm so so glad we found her. Alyson was super responsive and easy to communicate with and really flexible. Plus my pup was zonked out after we picked him up, so he must have played a lot and had a great time.”



“We booked day boarding with Lydia to accommodate holiday visits with family in the Twin Cities at Christmas. Illness changed our plans but we did use Lydia for fewer days and found her responsive, happy to work with our sweet, shy beagle, and her house and yard were perfect.”


“Karen was super friendly and took great care of Rue! She had so much fun playing with the pup that Karen watches on a regular basis. Just reached out to book again!”


“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.”


About: Pets are like family to me. I will make sure that your pet is safe, loved, and has fun while you are away. They may even learn a new trick or two! I love cats and will provide a discounted rate for anyone who needs to board their cat with me! I currently work from home so I can spend all day with your fur baby. Since I do work from home, I can give your pet lots of walks and play time but they must be able to handle being alone when I am in a meeting. I can accept boardings for cats and dogs between 9am and 6pm. Same day bookings are only available for previous clients. I have a dog park within 3 minutes of my home. Your dog will enjoy playing there everyday. I also have a cat that loves other animals! I have lots of entertainment for a cat as well so they won’t be bored!
