“Adrianne and her family have been a safe haven for my dog, Shaggy! First of all, I appreciated Adrianne’s meet and greet where we got to know each other briefly, talked about the expectations. Adrianne went above and beyond to accommodate Shaggy. She made my day by sending his pictures from morning till night 2-3 times a day:) it felt like I stayed connected with my dog and ensured he was happy and cared. Because of an inconvenience I personally experienced, I had to extend Shaggy’s visit one more day. She was very kind and understanding about the situation. We were able to extend the stay one more day. So long story short, she was amazing! I hope I can meet people like Adrienne when I move to Minneapolis because she is a really caring and kind pet lover and very friendly and kind person!”
“Steve was an absolute wonderful sitter for my guide Dog Sean. He paid attention to all details and information that was given. He also gave information and feedback on walks and he provided pictures of what he was doing with Sean”
“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”
“Absolutely would book again. Had a last minute booking and John was very open and understanding. John kept us updated and sent some great pics of the pups. John made our dogs feel welcomed and at home while we were gone and I'd honestly give him 10 stars for this experience if I could.”
“Virginia met us at a local park so we could introduce our shepherd to her before her stay. We talked for almost an hour.... it was wonderful and Virginia is amazing with people as well as dogs. She sent us pictures of our Maggie while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I definitely would use Virginia again in the future and recommend her to anyone needing a loving caretaker for their pet when they are away.”
About: I come from a large, dog friendly family where we prioritize our furry family’s health and happiness. I have owned XXL dogs and XXS dogs and have rescued many in need! I have successfully potty trained multiple puppies and adult dogs. I am a stay at home mom so there will always be supervision! I have a 3 year old and a 12 year old who knows the importance of being gentle with your pets. My 12 year old also enjoys training pups with my help! I have a 6 foot fully fenced in yard and 2 rescue dogs to keep your pups company. I have space for a few crates for overnight stays. I also use non toxic cleaning supplies and I’m well educated on toxic foods and plants. We exercise full caution to keep your dogs safe!
“Finally found a great boarding place for Harley! Harley had a nice large space and outdoor run. In a quite county setting, which is just like home away from home. It was nice to be able to use a camera app to peek in on him from time to time. Harley was calm and happy during his boarding. This was a fantastic boarding experience for Harley, which takes the stress out of leaving him at boarding in the future.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner and foster parent my whole life. I’ve trained and owned all kinds of dogs from Jack Russels and Pomeranians to Great Danes and Golden Doodles. The relationships I build with dogs are enriching and rewarding. The innocence and desire to just be themselves is what I love about animals. I treat my new dog friends like family and I believe they prosper in a relationship that promotes their inner dog as well as setting boundaries that help the human/canine relationship prosper. I embrace the belief of calm assertive dominance and find it that dogs seem to find peace in me being in that role. I am a stay at home parent whose availability is an asset that I utilize for the sake of the animals I care for. I hope to one day befriend your best friend. I’m a stay at home father of 10 and 12 yr old boys. I raise 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 24 chickens. I have lots of flexibility to ensure the care needed for you pet. I love to spend time with animals in the environment they feel most comfortable. With my flexible schedule and the abundance of land on my property and in my locale, I know I can fit the needs of your furry friend.

My pets have a fenced yard, an in/out kennel that allows them the freedom to be in or outside all day long. They have heat in the winter in the kennel and fans/fresh air in the summer. They stay in our home when we are home.
