We left over Christmas 2022, with a flight on Southwest. For those not in the know, Southwest famously cancelled thousands of flights - including us. Thankfully we had Chelsea. She was super responsive, and - luckily for us - able to adjust the dates of our stay due to unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, she was great with our cat and our reactive, grumpy, old lady dog. She was patient and worked at our dog’s pace which, really, really helped. Chelsea made sure to check all the boxes for our girls’ care. We were able to fully relax on our vacation knowing our critters were in good hands. 10/10 would book again!

About: I've had lots of experience with a wide variety of dogs from family pets to working with Wag! I have a 8 month old German Shepard/Lab, Opal, so I am comfortable with puppies and high energy breeds. I also have experience caring for senior animals. I am currently a stay-at-home mom. I am mostly available for weekend care but can do walks & check ins during the week if I bring my youngest with me. I am open to boarding and other care during the weekends. I have a fenced in yard for lots of fetch & play time. We love walks & hiking so lots of opportunities for exercise, fun & bonding with the dogs. I also have experience with crating if that is necessary.

About: I grew up with all kinds of dogs on a ranch growing up. I raised them from puppies all the way to their senior years. Every life stage has its experiences. I can provide medication, other special needs care, and special food with proper instructions as every dog is different. I will make sure to spend time with every dog with play time, attention which could be petting or just sitting with them. Their happiness matters the most if their family isn't home! I can help train basic things with puppies like at meal times I've been good with making sure they don't come crashing into the food before I have time to set it down. Or in general with simple people interactions. Nothing complex. Every dog is important! I currently have a flexible schedule as I'm currently in between jobs. This allows me to give every pet the proper attention and care they need with no time constraints. I will be respectful to the home I enter and all the pets inside the home. I will make sure the house is left perfect as I found it. I will make sure the pets are happier then I found them! My motto is "treat the home like how I'd want mine treated for both pets and the house."

About: I've taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I can help with basic training and manners, as well as lots of "walkies" and couch time! Whatever your fur baby prefers, they will be loved by my family and I. I currently work from home, so I am available to your babies 'round the clock. If they need to be let out at specific times or take timely medications, I am available for that as well! I have a fenced yard with a very friendly male, beagle mix to keep your dogs company. I can also crate or separate easily if necessary! I can come to take them for a walk or let them out, no matter the Minnesota weather! I can provide pictures/videos, and updates as often as you'd like. They will be loved by family and I, and treated like one of our pack!

They looked to have been well fed and happy when I got home. I always appreciate your willingness to communicate essentials so that important detail doesn’t get missed and that you were not put off by the snow. I am sure they loved your stories and I am grateful that someone they know and trust attends to them. Maturity and experience mean everything.
