Dog Boarding in Minnetrista, MN

“This is the second time we've used Emily and she is wonderful! Our dog Diego loves being there and playing with their dog Maggie. She sends the cutest photos and Diego is always exhausted when he comes home. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own over the years and have raised them from puppies, so I’m very familiar with all stages of a dog’s life from training and high-energy puppy behavior to the needs of adult and senior dogs. I’ve also personally fostered two daschund dogs for several years while a friend went through a difficult transition, caring for them full-time until she was able to find pet-friendly housing. That experience really deepened my understanding of long-term, committed pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds from larger dogs like Boxers to small breeds like Boston Terriers, Dachshunds, and Yorkies. I truly love them all and adjust my care based on each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I focus on making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me flexibility for walks, feedings, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My availability is open, and I’m also available most weekends. At my home, I provide a safe, family-friendly environment where pets are cared for like part of the family. I have a 10-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, so I always ensure interactions are supervised and safe for both the pets and children. I follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.

“I want to express myself clearly so I am going to continue in Spanish. Do not worry, the comments super positive. Brittany fue un angelito bajado del cielo pues nos ayudó con Lucky, no importando el no haberlo conocido con anticipación y sólo tuvo cariño y buenos cuidados para mí bebé perruno. Me mantuvo al tanto de Lucky y nos hizo sentir súper bien y tranquilos. Al recojer a Lucky, me dió detalles de todo lo que él hizo y definitivamente la recomiendo. Thank you Brittany for everything.??? Happy New Year 2023 God Bless You ???”

“Kj showed a great deal of patience and kindness in caring for my very anxious little pup. I am impressed with her positive energy and perseverance in building a trusting relationship. I will book with her again and have already reserved an extended stay during an upcoming family vacation.”

“Jana provided a loving and caring home for my dog while I was away. I appreciated her updates and photos. It was great for my dog to have so much affection and attention, not to mention a large fenced in yard to run around in. I highly recommend Jana!”

“What a blessing Trace is! Her place couldn't be better suited for dog care. A huge fenced in yard front pirch & dog run. She also has 4 Basset hounds!! Lily took immediate attention to Teddy. Such a wonderful time she had.She is so kind, knowledgeable and detailed oriented. My 3 mo Great Pyrenees...Lily Lu felt right @ home. Didn't even look back at me to say goodbye! I have her on speed dial and looking forward to many outings to her home for Lily Lu! She's the best!! So is her grandson, Evan!”

“Kay and family was definitely a godsend in my last minute attempt to find care for my dog, Henry. Daily updates with pictures and videos and great communication helped me relax knowing he was in good hands. My dog has special needs in the center where he has attachment issues and there was always somebody home at Kay‘s house to be with Henry and her family is just as calming and sweet as what you would picture from her description and photos. Not only a great dog sitter but an amazing human being in life! Can’t thank you all enough!”

“Amy and Jason took great care of our puppy! We got great updates throughout the weekend and our girl came home tuckered out! We’ll definitely be using them again.”

Krista L.

“Kristen and family cared for our Golden Retriever, Rookie so well while we were away! It was comforting knowing that he was in good hands the whole time. Rookie was nice and tired when he got home too so I know that he had fun with some impromptu dog playing of which he loves. Every time we got a picture sent to us, we all raced to see what he was doing and he always looked happy. We have already rebooked for when we will be gone again in the future. Thank you Kristen and Fam!”

“Logan is knowledgeable and caring about all things animals. She initiated a Meet & Greet before the first time caring for our pups and it was important to her to get familiar with our family. During their first stay, she provided updates, sent pics and followed all of our care instructions. When my flight was delayed, she kindly agreed to a later pick-up.”

Vanessa H.

“Alicia & Simon were terrific. My Boomer was clearly happy hanging out there, and they were very thoughtful about his care while visiting. Thanks!”

Mary E.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! William took such amazing care of our pup—he slept soundly, got plenty of walks, and was treated like family. William was incredibly thoughtful, even sending him home with a sweet gift bag, a magnet with his picture, and a heartfelt card. We felt so at ease knowing our dog was in such loving and attentive hands. Highly recommend William to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own. Thank you so much!”

“Regina is by far the best dog boarder I have ever had the pleasure of using. She makes being away from your dog so much less stressful. Daily updates and pics. I won't go to anyone else. She's simply the best”

“My pup was so happy during her stay with Mary and her family! I received lots of updates with photos so I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about my little baby🐶”

“Kiersa did a great job. Boodles was a bit anxious when we left but she was able to settle her down. When it was time for Bed, Boodles didn't want to leave sight of the front door and so Kiersa snuggled in and slept with Boodles on the couch. We will use her again, she’s very sweet”
