Let us become your pet's family!

Pet care experience

My name is Vanessa and I operate Rock Creek Critter Care (follow us on facebook). We live on 4 acres with a fully fenced large yard. We are located in Rock Creek Minnesota, just 2 miles off of I-35. We have 1 cat, 1 horse, and 1 goat. I have a 5 yr old son and a 11 yr son, who are both avid animal lovers. We would love to watch your furry (or feathered) family members for as little or as long as you need in our home. We also offer daily walks or check-ins at your home. Contact us and let us know your needs and we will do everything we can to accommodate you and your pets. Thanks for considering us! Vanessa and Family I currently work part time away from the home. I am gone for roughly 5 hrs in the first part of the day. I can accommodate early morning drop offs or drop offs after 1pm. We have a large fenced hard, split into 2 sections so that I can care for dogs from 2 households at a time. If crate trained, your pet will be crated as you wish vs left free in our home. We followed your feeding instructions based on your instructions.

Rosie had a great time at Vanessa's and we were very comfortable leaving her there for the week we were out of town. Thank you, Vanessa! Tom, Kathy and Rosie

Information Vanessa S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any and all info that you can give me about your dog and their likes or dislikes. It is nice to know how they feel about kids/cats/other dogs. Also, knowing their potty signals, if they chew, do they have a tendency to try and eat nonfood items.

A typical day

Weekends - your pet gets as much outside time as they like with toys/pool/interactions with us. Weekdays- We are up by 6am and your dog will have breakfast and time to play or run around outside or in the house until 7:30 when they will get crated (if crate trained) and I leave for work. Most dogs (especially on their first stay with us), if not crated will be kept in our entryway (12x25 ft), while we are gone. I do use cameras to live stream to my phone what your pets are up to while i am away. I return home by 12:30/1.
