Doggy Day Care Saint Bonifacius

“When our normal sitter for our 18 year old dog was unavailable we selected Dayjah to fill in. As our dog is old, we are very protective with him. We spike with Dayjah on the phone first. It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”

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.

“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”

“Regina is a second "mom" to our fur-child, and we trust Rocket to her care so much so that we shape our travel plans around HER availability. She's that good!”

“Britt is absolutely amazing!! Texted a few times with updates and took my dog in like it was her own. I would absolutely recommend and plan to use her again!!!”

About: I’ve been my neighborhoods designated dog sitter since I was 12 years old! I’m a lifelong dog lover and currently have two large, energetic rescue dogs of my own. I have hands-on experience with bully breeds, large and strong dogs, puppies, multi-dog households, crate training, leash manners, enrichment, basic grooming, and administering routine medications and supplements. I’m especially comfortable with active dogs and dogs with big personalities! I understand that every dog has different needs, boundaries, routines, and ways of communicating, and I’m happy to follow the training and structure you already use at home. I love walks, hiking, enrichment activities, playtime, and plenty of couch cuddles. I’m also comfortable with basic bathing and grooming, including dogs who need a little extra patience with baths. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention to dog body language, introduce dogs carefully, separate dogs for meals and high-value treats when appropriate, and never assume that what works for one dog will work for another. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re with me. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs in my care. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, as well as daycare and boarding for dog-friendly dogs in my home. I have two dogs of my own, so caring for dogs, getting outside, and fitting plenty of play and enrichment into my day is already part of my normal routine! Safety and comfort are always my priority. I have two friendly, social dogs of my own, and I require a meet-and-greet before boarding or daycare to make sure everyone is comfortable together. I carefully supervise introductions and play, and I separate dogs for meals, chews, and other high-value items when needed. I have a large yard with an invisible fence that my own dogs use, but visiting dogs will always be physically secured outside with a leash or long line. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, crate schedule, feeding instructions, medications, and house rules. Dogs are always welcome on my furniture and beds unless you prefer otherwise!

“Ryker loved his day staycation with Kate, John and Cash. He was a tired, happy pup that evening. He will stay for a long weekend coming up soon. I am sure he is going to have a great time.”

Carole R.

“Our dogs had a wonderful time with Emily and her family. Emily was a great communicator all the way through and our boys were very well cared for and loved. We will definitely be using her again!”

Angela M.

“They are so amazing with my bulldog, Georgia. She is always so happy to see them! They also send lots of cute pics. Thanks for taking such good care of our girl!”

About: With 30 years of dog‑care experience, I’ve done it all—groomer’s apprentice, breeder house‑sitter, and professional treat‑dispenser. Your pup gets a work‑from‑home buddy, a fenced yard for maximum zoomies, and all the cuddles they can handle. Special needs? Meds? Extra attention? I’ve got it covered. Basically, your dog’s about to live their best life. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I work from home, so I’m able to give dogs consistent attention from morning to night. With 30 years of experience—including working as a groomer’s apprentice and house‑sitting for dog breeders—caring for pups is part of my everyday rhythm. I take regular breaks for potty trips, playtime, and zoomies in the fenced yard, and I offer both daycare and boarding, depending on what your pup needs. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a secure home environment, a safely enclosed yard for outdoor fun, and plenty of cozy indoor spaces for rest and snuggles. I’m experienced with medications, special‑needs care, and senior pups, and I treat every dog like my own—patient, calm, and attentive. You can trust that your pup will receive reliable, loving care and a true home‑away‑from‑home experience.

“Took good care of both my babies, and sent me updates on them before I could ask lol very grateful🥹. And was sent home with a goodie bag for them❤️”

About: My home with fenced in backyard is located on the Dakota Trail by Crystal Bay, Lake Mntka. I'm home full time and guarantee two 30-40 minute walks a day (if your pup is up for it, if not I will accommodate). I have been a dog lover my entire life! I have many years of experience from taking care of my own furbaby (Pug named Bagels!) to caring for others cherished pups. Your dog will love staying in my home! We spend time playing, relaxing & snuggling. Your dog will have an amazing stay with lots of love and care and is welcome all over my home. Your pup will enjoy my fenced in backyard and outdoor patio so when the weather is nice your pup can lounge in the sun. Your pup will always be on a leash when on walks and watched very closely. I generally board one dog at a time so that I can offer high quality care. Your pup will be spoiled with loving attention! Be prepared for lots of photos of your dog relaxing in my cozy home or getting fresh air on the trail! I look forward to meeting you and your furbaby. I enjoy caring for pups very much however I do require the following: Dogs must be current on shots, heartworm & flea & tick treatments. I generally care for one dog at a time but make exceptions for families with multiple dogs. I don't watch dogs with any history of aggression. Only house trained pups please. I’m home full-time so I’m flexible with my hours. Drop off and Pick up can be arranged to fit your schedule. No problem when changes occur with your travel at last minute. I do not require a cancellation or change fee because LIFE happens! Safety is one of my top priorities. I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly Pug for your dog to play with. Your dog will always be leashed when walking on the Dakota trail.

“Kiera’s took very good care of my dogs for the day. Would book again!”

“We just wrapped up our first day of doggy daycare with Jen, and we are so happy to have found such a wonderful family closeby with a fenced yard!!! Jen provided photos and updates throughout the day, which put me at ease. I love that her kids got to play with my dog as well. And I can tell my pup had a great time. We will be repeat customers for sure!!!”

Lindsay S.

“Kristen and her family welcomed Oreo as if he was their own dog. I felt confident that he was getting all the attention he needed. He got some love and exercise and a much welcomed break from his new little fur brother for the day. He is a fast eater, so still eats a lunch and that wasn't an issue at all for them. I know he would be happy to go back for a visit and some playtime with the kids anytime. Thanks for taking such great care of our big boy!”

Sue M.

“Kara is absolutely amazing! Not only is she top notch! Her family is out of this world as well! I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for Leo to spend his days while I am at work.”

Dina H.

“Sonja and Adam were both very nice and their dogs too. I received a cute video of my dog playing with one of their dog during the day. They always answered my message quickly. They took care of Lola very well.”

Elodie P.

“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”

Robin R.

“We initially did a Meet & Greet with K.J. and then it was all systems go for a play date! Our doggo was embraced as part of the family and had a fantastic day! We hope to book again with her sooner rather than later. ❤️”

About: Hi! I’m Megan, and I’ve spent years working hands-on with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have a strong background in pet care, including working as a dog trainer for both group classes and private clients, as well as experience in dog daycare, boarding, and veterinary settings. I’ve cared for dogs in many environments and I’m comfortable handling everything from basic care to more behavior-focused needs. I have experience reading dog body language and helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve been extensively involved in rescue work as a foster home and running a shelter behavior group of volunteers so I’m especially patient with reactive, anxious, or higher-needs dogs. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and tailoring care to what works best for them. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care—just like I would for my own. I’m currently a stay at home mom and so I am able to be flexible in most cases. Evenings and weekends will be my most available times! I have two dogs of my own who are very used to new animals coming and going. I don’t have a fenced backyard, but do have tie outs or can leash walk any pets at my home. Every animal has different needs, so I will do my best to figure out what sleeping arrangements make them the most comfortable during their stay (I have kennels of every size so people do not need to bring theirs back and forth unless they prefer to). I’m well versed in methods of calming for pets that might be nervous. I do have a 6 month old infant at home who is very used to dogs, but any pets coming in to my home would need to be safe and comfortable around her.
