Doggy Day Care in Star Prairie

“Karen and her family are absolutely wonderful! She gives us such piece of mind with her knowledge and experience with dogs. I’m an anxious dog mom and I have never once questioned the high quality of care she provides. Wonderful as always - she is our top choice of sitter!”

“Amanda watched my dog on a few hours notice for our wedding, and it was such a relief that he was in good care! She was so flexible and easygoing and our dog definitely had a blast!”

About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was a child. When married and had kids, we’ve always had dogs and have cared for our dogs in every aspect, walking, bathing, grooming, vet care, etc. Currently we don’t have a pet, but our house is a perfect set up to take care of yours. Currently we are retired. We would have plenty of time to go for walks, play and relax. Our dogs in the past have used our very convenient doggy door into a fenced area for potty breaks. Your dog will be treated like one of our own, getting lots of love and attention during the day and can sleep overnight in a doggy bed or crate whichever is preferred.

About: Orlando has had dogs for over 30 years. He used to train and show dogs in competitions in Costa Rica years ago. Throughout high school and college, he had fish and at one point a total of 10 fish tanks. Nicki grew up in the metro area and has always had dogs and cats in the house. It was important for both Nicki and Orlando to raise their children with pets around. Currenty, they have a dog named Willow, a turtle named Tito, and a fish named Bubbles. They love hosting and caring for pets, it's fun and rewarding! I own a business and have a flexible schedule. My wife works from home and is available to help. Our kids are 13 and 14 and they are in love with animals. We own a 1 year old trained Frenchton, her name is Willow. We have a 4 year old gold fish "Bubbles"and a 3 year old Red Eared Slider named Tito. We love reptiles! We live in the country on a 3 acre non fenced property and we have a spacious house. We will follow individual feeding and care guidelines. We like to let dogs enjoy playing outside, under supervision.

“Jessica and her family are amazing hosts. They were easy to coordinate with and took great care of our senior husky. We will be rebooking with them in the future if they’ll have Cricket!”

About: I’m a country gal raised with a passion for animals! I have horses of my own as well as boarders, a dog, cat and chickens. I’ve had my own tiny farm for the last 5+ years, but I’ve been caring for animals since long before that. My husband, kids & I will provide your dog with lots of love and attention while you are away! I work from home (all but 2 days per month), so I am happy to provide care any day of the week. Your dog would have free access of our dog room with a doggy door to our potty patch. If your dog needs to be crated we can discuss the frequency of potty breaks and work to accommodate your dogs needs. I have 28 acres for your dog to run and play on. I have my own dog and many other furry friends to entertain your dog for endless hours of fun! I can easily crate your dog, if needed.

About: We just lost our beloved Pitbull of 10 years in December. While not ready to own a new dog, I would love to be around them! I’m very active and would love to take your dog for a nice long walk and give them all the pets and snuggles needed! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have a lot of time during the day to hang with your pet! I am typically home all day. We live on 5 acres but do not have a fence. Our dog was trained to stay in the yard. We have a long tie out for dogs if they do not stay in the yard.

“Thank you, Alicia for taking good care of Bart. Would definitely book her again.”

“Sandy is the best person to care for your dog while you’re away. She takes the time to find out about your dog before she takes care of them. It’s obvious that she truly loves caring for dogs. I know my little guy will miss all of the love she gave him in my absence. Lisa L.”

“Great communication and my dog left happy!!”

About: I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups. I can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pet 😊 I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc. I have a yard with 3 friendly fur babies of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!

“Our dog Aggie had a great time with Julie! When we booked, she asked if Aggie would be ok having another dog around. We said Yes and the two Cockapoos had a wonderful day together. We appreciated Julie being willing to take on a second dog since we were asking last minute.”

“Rachel has been watching my 5 month old wheaten terrier puppy a few times a week and he LOVES her. He is so happy and excited to see her which is a clear indicator that he gets lots of love and attention when he’s with her! She is super communicative and always keeps me up to date with photos throughout the day, as well as with general status/progress notes [and without me having to ask, which has really alleviated any additional stress that might come with leaving your fur baby!]. I have an unpredictable schedule and she has also been very flexible and accommodating with last minute requests and changes. Highly recommend - so grateful I found her!

“This was my first time having to get my boys a sitter, but I was really glad to have found Michelle! They were immediately comfortable upon arrival and pick up and drop off were very easy. It was such wonderful being able to not have to stress about they’re comfort and safety while I was away. Thank you Michelle!”

Jenna O.

“She responded immediately to our last-minute request to take our dog for the day. She let us know what to expect and how she would feed Aggie. She was willing to keep her even longer than I requested, since we weren't sure when we would be back. She even offered to walk her out to the car under an umbrella during the storm! Aggie came back to us happy and tired out. I'm so glad we booked with Elizabeth W!”

About: I work from home and have the ability to let the dogs out regularly. We have a 4.5 acres property, a 40'x40'x6' play area "dogpark", and a large climate controlled pole barn to play in when it's too hot or cold, outside. We live in a quiet neighborhood for leashed walks. If you will be awau for several days and have cats, too, I'm not able to board kitties, but I am willing to visit them, feed, water, and clean their litter boxes, for an extra fee. I need to figure out how to list this in the River app. Working from home allows me to let the dogs out as needed. We have quiet times where pups can rest and I can get a few things done, then back outside to play. We love leisurely walks, playing tug, cooling off in the sprinkler, and playing fetch. When its too hot we have frozen engagement toys, and a cool pole barn for some play time. In winter months the pole barn is heated for more play time.

About: I have always had and adored dogs my whole life. I also have training experience from working with others dogs as well as my own. My latest training experience consisted of teaching my dog to come inside using a paw doorbell and going outside using the bell ringing system. Works every time! My husband and I work from home so we are always here and available to care for your pets. My two boys adore dogs as well and will help out, feed and love your dog. I have two dogs (chihuahua/terrier mix who is 12 and a 3 year old English Spaniel/husky mix) who are able to roam our 1,600 square foot house with a privacy fenced in yard. Water is always available in the kitchen. I will walk, talk and play with your dog to keep him/ her company.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

“Krista is SIMPLY THE BEST (yes, hear Tina Turner belting this out in your head 😄)! Our dog, Finn, loves her so much and has a great time with her three sweet dogs every time he goes to her place. Krista is incredibly kind and attentive, and we always appreciate the adorable photos of Finn she sends!”

About: I've been pet sitting since I was in middle school, and more recently I've been pet sitting for family, friends, and Rover clients. I've had cats my entire life and currently I have a 3 year old dog. I work from home for with a flexible schedule, so I am able to watch your pets in my home and give them the loving attention they deserve while you are away. I send updates and pictures as often as you would like. I have reliable transportation and I work from home during the week, so times are flexible. I have an unfenced yard and a dog of my own.
