Doggy Day Care in Fuller Tangletown, Minneapolis

“We were able to book Alyson 3-4 hours before our drop off time and we are so grateful she was able to accommodate our last minute request so we could have a little date night and not worry about our babe being anxious and alone at home for 5 hours. Alyson was friendly and seemed to be really comfortable with having dogs in her home. Percy made himself comfortable almost immediately (lol) and we could tell he had a great time at Alyson’s at pick up time. We cannot wait to use her services again.”

“If you want your family member loved and secure, you must select Howie. Tootie loved him! That is so important to me when I travel with my dog.”

“Having recently moved to MN with a dog who has a challenging past and anxiety, I was initially worried for my dog, Benji. But thankfully, Benji is at complete ease thanks to Grace and Luke’s experience, care, and attention. In fact, he has so much fun and even cuddles with them! It’s clear to me that Grace and Luke go above and beyond for all the dogs who come under their care and I can’t recommend them enough. They are also just great communicators, listeners, and lovely people. Thank you so much, Grace and Luke!”

“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”

“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.”

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 :)

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

“Evie seemed to have a great time during daycare! Liz provided pictures and an update mid-day, which I really appreciated. Evie is exhausted and enjoyed playing with Poppy. We will be back!”

“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!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Ivy loves going to Krista and the boys! She gets super excited every time and comes home all tuckered out. Krista is great at communicating and asking questions when needed.”

“Fantastic! Courtney takes such good care of our shy pup, who is coming out of his shell daily thanks to her care. And Kramer too. We are so lucky to have found them.”

“I felt very comfortable leaving Maui with Kelly. She was able to give me updates and took my dog for a walk and to the park. She was also very nice!”

“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!”

“We received good updates with photos and they took great care of our little guy! So rest assured yours will be in great hands with this couple! We will definitely use their services again when we're next in town!”

“Adam is a great communicator and kind sitter. My pup and his had a blast in a great fenced yard. Happy to have found Adam and wiould certainly recommend.”

About: We have a large, fully fenced in back yard. Live close to the park. Take 2-3 walks per day. 2 kids age 9 and 12 and a Mini Berna-Doodle age 1 year who would love a playmate. I love taking walks, which works out nicely for my dog and yours. I work mostly from home and within walking distance to my office, allowing me to check in and snuggle my pup throughout the day. I have a large fenced in yard and take 2-3 walks per day. My 1 year old pup would love a playmate. I do require that your pup be crate trained as they would spend 1-2 hours in their crate for "nap time" each day and for overnight sleeping as well.

“Malaney P. is a wonderful pet sitter who really cares about the animals she is caring for. She has cared for my pets many times and they are always happy to see her.”

About: Bachelors in Animal Science (BS), Master's of Veterinay Medicine (MS), and soon to be DVM student class of 2028. Experience in emergency companion animal medicine, general practice medicine, and exotics (reptiles and pocket pets). Academic Experience: Bachelors of Science - Animal Science Pre-Vet Track - University of Minnesota - 2021 Masters of Science - Veterinary Sciences - - University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine- 2024 Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine - University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine - anticipated class of 2028 I completed my Bachelor's degree in Animal Science at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and then pursued postgraduate studies at the University's College of Veterinary Medicine. I will earn a Master's degree in Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Research in the spring of 2024. I will then begin a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine (DVM, clinical veterinarian) program with the University of Minnesota's College of Veterinary Medicine. Work Experience: Companion Animal General Veterinary Practice - Veterinary Assistant Companion Animal Emergency Veterinary Practice - Veterinary and Triage Assistant Equine Veterinary Medicine - Hospital Staff I've gained valuable experience in hands-on roles in both general practice and emergency small animal settings. As a veterinary and triage assistant, I've had the privilege of contributing to the well-being of beloved pets and applying my knowledge and empathy daily. In my work in emergency medicine, I've seen pet-sitters bring in their clients' pets in critical condition multiple times. Through my academic and work experiences, I've learned to recognize medical emergencies when symptoms are mild, as opposed to waiting until the pet is in critical condition. Additionally, I take utmost care to ensure your pet's safety and health at all times. This is why I don't allow bookings from separate households to overlap, avoid dog parks, and carefully select the toys and items for your pet. Being overly cautious when looking after a pet that isn't your own is my standard. With a strong academic background and practical experience, I'm dedicated to providing the best possible care for animals and ensuring their health and happiness. PM if you are interested or have questions on the many hazards and emergencies that pet-sitters could get wrangled into. Presently, the majority of my academic commitments are conducted in an online format, with the limited in-person classes necessitating a mere 2 to 3 hours of absence at most. Given this flexibility, the seamless incorporation of animal care responsibilities into any segment of my schedule would be possible. NOTE: *** Your pet must be able to do a flight of stairs on their own, as I live on the second floor of a duplex **** Ensuring your pet receives the best care possible is my top priority. This includes following your instructions for feeding and watering, making sure your pet stays mentally and physically active, and always respecting their comfort zones. In terms of what daily life would look like for your pet, they would enjoy one to two walks a day, each lasting from a half hour to an hour. Of course, the length and frequency of these walks would depend on your dog's ability to move around and their behavior. Inside, they'd have access to the upstairs area of our home (your pet must be able to do stairs on their own) which includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and three spacious living areas. These spaces are equipped with heating and air conditioning to keep your pet comfortable in any weather. Playtime and affection would be in abundance to keep your pet happy. It's important to note that I won't be taking them to off-leash dog parks, as these places can be risky and lead to injuries. Your pet's safety is my main concern.
