Doggy Day Care in Pennington

“Our dogs were so excited to meet Carter and his family! They had a great time playing and getting out for walks while in his care. We would definitely contact Carter again when we're going to be in the area.”

About: Hi, I'm Rick and have been around dogs most of my life. Growing up, I always had at least one dog and most of the time some cats. I had a short petless period after the kids graduated from high school. However, it wasn't long until I got a young, exuberant black lab. I spent hours on the dock throwing sticks for her and watching her launch off the end of the dock. She was crazy for the water! Unfortunately she passed away from cancer. The grief was awful, and I told myself no more dogs. But in several months I realized I'm a dog person, and was lucky enough to get Banjo, a collie/lab/poodle mix (Colabradoodle). Banjo and I attended multiple obedience schools, therapy training and he and I are now a certified therapy team. He and I have volunteered at the hospital every Friday for almost 9 years, and we've been in almost every nursing home, assisted living facility and clinic in town. Banjo and I are also a certified BARC team (Bemidji Area Reading Canines) which brings us to most schools in Bemidji, as well as the library and Boys and Girls Club. The kids come to read to him....or I read....or we make up stories from the pictures....or we just talk and pet Banjo. He's also an AKC Good Citizen. He is a gentle, submissive gentleman who loves people, especially kids, and gets along well with other dogs. He's 10 1/2 years old. I'm an active retiree but am flexible so if I'm watching your dog he/she will be my priority. I have one dog, who gets along well with people and other dogs. When I care for your dog, he/she will be treated like family. I have a fenced yard for play and trails in my woods to take walks. I will not allow your dog to be unleashed in an area that is not fenced. We live in the country so it's quiet and peaceful.

“Wonderful experience! Beth and her husband saved the day!! Such a great team! Not only did they ensure our dog Nora was taken care of, they also went out of their way to help us get into our locked car in the cold. Super helpful and kind. Our dog Nora had a great time playing with their dogs. Thanks again😊”

“I don’t know where to begin to express how wonderful Amy has been to Daisi the past year and a half…Daisi has been so lovingly cared for on her weekly visits to Amy and her sweet Oakley. ♥️ Amy is the kind of person that I can trust completely to care for my busy Goldendoodle. I know when Daisi is with Amy she is a very happy dog‼️ I am so lucky to have found Amy who is always very accommodating with my various schedules and enjoy her kindness to both me and Daisi🐕🥰”

About: Hi, I’m John! I’m here to help fill the gap for you. I only allow one client in my home at a time to give your dog the attention they deserve. *Note* while typically I mainly do dog boarding, I am available to do drop in visits and dog walking until 6/21/26 If you would prefer a meet and greet before you bring them over for a long stay, let me know what time works best for! I offer pick up services for your pet if you don’t have time to drop them off as long as you are within a reasonable distance and it doesn’t conflict with my work schedule. Let me know how I can help! I work from home full-time during the week and my job allows me to give attention as needed. I typically give potty breaks every 2 hours We’re pet people, too. I allow pets on my furniture. I feed my dog in the morning but can do as many meals as you require and feed your pup separately if they’re good aggressive.
