Doggy Day Care in Ericsson, Minneapolis

“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.”

“Thank you so much for watching Pancho!”

“Absolutely incredible experience. Celia was easy to communicate with and sent me pics of my pup throughout the day. I would love to book again - highly recommmend”

“Lydia was so great with our dog. We had updates twice a day. Our dog was clearly happy and well cared for. I will use her next time we travel for sure.”

“We would highly recommend Brianna! She sent us several pictures and updates of how Odin was doing and he obviously enjoyed his day with her. We will certainly use her for daycare again.”

“Ellen is great! She goes out of her way to ensure my anxious pup is happy and comfortable. Great communication: She keeps me posted on how he is doing and doesn't hesitate to ask questions about his little quirks. After only one day with Ellen, he hops in the house with tail wagging! Thanks Ellen!”

“Kim was great! Very helpful as this was my first time using Rover. I look forward to bringing Gus to see her and Shadow more in the future!”

“Johanna and her family took great care of our dog. We appreciate the extra exercise and attention our dog got throughout the day, as well as the sweet photo updates.”

“Summit was very comfortable! Loved the pics Jackson sent. Will use again!”

About: Adventurous and active millennial who enjoys going for runs or cuddling up to a good movie! I love hanging out with my three dogs, Lola (7 year old female Golden Retriever, 50 lbs), Levi (5 year old male Golden Retriever, 50 lbs) who currently live with me and Marvin (11 year old male Border Collie Blue Heeler, 45 lbs) who currently lives with my parents but visits often. We spend most of our free time outside in our yard and at the nearby lakes and trails. We do love to relax at home as well and binge our favorite series! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! Skills: Cared for dogs for 10+ years (2 of my own) Worked as a Kennel Assistant - very familiar with dog behavior and training I am currently transitioning to hybrid work and will be at my home full-time during the week along with available weekends. Most of my professional career prior to this has been caring for many different animal species! I have a decent sized fenced in yard with multiple dogs to hang with your pup. Every dog gets a "safe space" set up where they can eat, sleep and relax. Each area is in its own room equipped with blankets and food and water bowls. I also have a dog camera that I like to set up if I need to leave your pooch for a few hours. I try my best to never leave your pup for more than a few hours. We are also walking minutes away from a lake where we can enjoy afternoon strolls and swims as well! I am conveniently located less than 10 minutes from the MSP Airport for anyone hopping on a flight! There is plenty of street parking if clients would like to leave their vehicle when they drop off their pet and uber/lyft to the airport from here..ride shares usually range from $10-$40 from this location depending on time of day etc… I do offer rides when ride share is unavailable :)

“Michelle is an excellent Dog Mom. She has made her home open to temporary foster, found strays, and Life-long doggos of diverse breeds and sizes. She is a dog whisperer. She understands how to make an animal feel comfortable in a new environment or task. The caregiving she provides is a huge benefit to the dog. Her ability to train good habits in the animals turns out consistently amazing results. She has dedicated attention and time to ensuring that a pet leaves more loved and well-behaved than when she receives them, resulting in better and quicker foster placement.”

“Seth was patient, flexible, and communicative while he provided doggy day care for my pup. He is clearly passionate about dogs. We had a great experience!”

“Herman LOVES hanging out at Samantha's! So wonderful to have a place where he feels comfortable and gets as much love and care as he does at home!”

“Short version: Tammy and her basset hounds are excellent hosts. I would return my two dogs to her care anytime and also recommend the same to others. Long version: My dogs Jack and Oliver stayed with Tammy and her two basset hounds Charlie and Phoebe. I am from Oregon and I communicated with Tammy using dogvacay. Everything was setup in Minneapolis before I left Oregon. When I arrived at her house Tammy greeted us in the yard and the dogs got to meet/greet in a great way. After a little while to see how they did, I left them for about six hours. The four played and socialized all day and were having a fabulous time when I came to pick them up. Pawsome!”

“Irving is the best! Nothing better than coming home after a long weekend to a clean house and tired puppies. Irving has been my dogsitter for the last 2 years and he has been nothing but amazing. I have 2 crazy puppies and they both love him AND Paco! I can't thank you enough for all you have done!”

“Stacy was fantastic! She took Benji on our moving day and took so much stress off our plates. She coordinated a meet and greet to help alleviate any anxiety between our dog and hers, and was incredible flexible throughout.”

“Clay had a great day! Susie is clearly a dog lover with lots of experience. She responds quickly and really takes time to get to know your pup!”

“Poppy had an amazing day with Sarah and Lexi! She was absolutely exhausted and happy when she got home. I was sent frequent updates throughout the day. I will for sure be using Sarah and Lexi in the future!”

“This was the first time I have brought my dog to a sitter and I am so impressed with Leela. She sent me updates and pictures of how Maui was doing and I felt confident that he was safe. Leela’s dog Blue is very sweet and welcomed us in so was the other pup she was taking care of. I will definitely have to book with Leela again.”

“Phoebe had a great time staying with Nadine and Paul. You could tell she was having a blast from the photos they sent. Will absolutely use them again in the future!”
