“Wow! I have never felt so comfortable with my companions staying with another family before. Peter went above and beyond taking care of our kittens. We got so many pictures and videos that made being away from them so much easier. Thank you Peter for giving a safe place for Dahlia and Churro to stay while we explored the beauty of Duluth”
“This family took my puppy at the last min for over 24 hrs they made sure they kept me updated with pictures. Daisy seemed well taking care of and wore out from playing. I will definitely be booking with them again often.”
“Nathan, Laura, and family were absolutely wonderful with our high energy puppy! We received lots of updates and pictures and it was very clear our dog had an incredible time. We were able to feel at ease knowing our dog was in great hands!”
“I was happy to leave my dogs with Patty. She has a very nice, large fenced yard, has a great demeanor and a is obviously a dog lover. My dogs weren't sad to see me go, lol. I'll definitely be bringing them back to "visit" Patty. I'm sure the dogs will love staying there again.”
“Anja had a wonderful time and it was great to receive pictures throughout her stay. Christina was very professional and easy to work with to coordinate drop off and pick up times. Would highly recommend as your next dog sitter.”
“Zane was great. Very accommodating and flexible with drop off and pickup, and provided a picture during the stay to show my pup was doing great. Great communication throughout. Would use again if I'm in the area.”
“Samantha (and her husband) were both amazing! I can't recommend them enough! She was quick to set up a meet and greet and my pup was at ease with her as soon as I dropped him off for his stay. She sent pictures and updates every day. They will forever be the first sitters I ask anytime I need to board in the future.”
“Esther was great with my dog (Taz). Taz was well-taken care of and treated like one of their own. He had fun with the family, and I was updated regularly on Taz's progress and activities. Esther's home is now the second home for Taz. Thanks again, Esther.”
“I had the absolute pleasure of having Heather take care of my dog, Opal, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Heather went above and beyond to make sure Opal felt comfortable and loved. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind and showed how well Opal was being cared for. Not only did she take Opal on multiple walks, but she also gave her a bath, leaving her looking and feeling fresh. The love and attention Opal received were beyond what I could have hoped for, and I will definitely be using Heather again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“was my first time leaving my puppy Loki. The family was so nice and accommodating. They sent pictures and gave me feedback did with other dog, children, and behavior. It was nice to hear. Thank you very much for taking care of my puppy. We will be back!”
“Carley and Ferris took great care of my dog Fawn over a holiday weekend. They have a great setup and treated her like one of their own. Carley was very responsive and kept me up to date. I would definitely recommend them!”
“Jamie was above and beyond an excellent sitter for our Heidi while we were on vacation! While our dog is a very sweet girl, she has some things going on as a puppy that can make her a handful - Jamie cared for her with grace and ease! Great communication and easy to book with. The only downside: we can’t bring her back to Rochester with us to use as our regular sitter!!”
“Rachel and her family were amazing 😍. Our large puppers love being on the farm, and soaked up all the love and attention! We already have recommended her to our family. Rachel will be our first call when we need boarding again!”
About: There’s no cats, kids or other dogs in the home, meaning your pup (s) can have a relaxing and snuggle filled time all by themselves! I raised my Great Dane from 8 weeks-10 years old and she recently passed away. She was a reactive dog that didn’t like people, cats, kids or other dogs. I’m well versed and comfortable with shy, reactive or nervous dogs and puppies. I’m a social worker during the day, CNA a few hours a week and rarely have plans outside of that especially in fall/winter. I’m a home body whenever humanly possible. I am flexible with notice! Definitely ask if I can make a schedule work if it’s similar to my availability. I have a ground level apartment, a large couch for snuggling, a good size backyard with a tie out that is fenced on 2 sides with the opening facing an alleyway and only a walkway on the otherside.
“Steff did a great job with my sweet girl. She shared pictures throughout her stay and that was really comforting and fun to see. Ravyn must have had a really fun time because she slept for hours after getting home!”
“Emily was wonderful throughout the whole experience. She invited us to her home to see how my dog would be before booking the stay. Throughout my dog's stay she sent pictures and updates on how he was doing. She was also very understanding of my flight issues I had and was very flexible. I'd recommend her to everyone.”
