Pet care experience

Basset & overall animal lover

I am currently a stay at home mom of 2 amazing kids! I, my husband and my kids love dogs, dog snuggles and the joy they bring to our lives! I am home most week days other than to run errands or to attend short appointments. My husband works from home so he is there when I am not. We have a chain link fence around our entire yard and lots of shade, with some nice sunny spots as well. I am reliable and would love to care for your special friend! I had a basset hound named Bella who was more than just a pet, she was a part of my family, as many pets are to their people. I cared for her from her puppy days into her senior days when she was sadly laid to rest. I dog sit for friends and family and am trusted by them to care for their Four legged furry friends! We also now have another basset hound named Coconut who is just over 2 years old. She loves to play with other dogs and will run and wrestle them all day long if they let her!

Doggy Day Care • Apr 24, 2026

Their family is so caring! They send great pics! Their daughter might read to your dog. They’ve taken my dog on a walk to the bus stop, during one visit. They have a fenced yard. I appreciate that they make sure that your dog goes out to the bathroom before your pick up time. I appreciate their care!

Thanks for being so accommodating with GiGi. She loves your yard and cuddles. Thanks for understanding dogs, how to help them relate with eachother the best & when to separate them for a break. I KNOW that she is in caring hands when she is with you, your husband, kids & dog! Thanks for saying, GiGi is such a sweet dog!

Kayla and her family welcomed Henry with open arms, and we couldn’t have been more at ease leaving him in their care. Their communication was great - lots of photos too! Thanks so much for taking him!

A typical day

Running around the back yard! We have lots of space! Tons of dog toys and many balls to throw. We love to go for walks around our neighborhood in White Bear Lake! Playing with the kids in the yard! My parents have land in Mahtomedi with two golden retrievers if your dog loves to socialize and go for car rides that is an option for your pet too if you wish!
