“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”

“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”

“This was the first time Mochi and I had ever been apart, and I was honestly more anxious than he was. Ben and Jennifer made it so much easier. They sent photos and videos throughout the stay, which was exactly what I needed, being able to see him playing and relaxed took a huge weight off. He got along wonderfully with their dog and came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. They were also quick to respond and flexible when I asked about pickup timing. If you're nervous about leaving your dog for the first time, these are the people to book with. Thank you both!”

Dodge Center, MN, 55927

About: I have been around dogs and cats for many years, and some farm animals. I currently have two adult cats and one young dog. We live on 5.5 acres that are fenced-ish, but the yard is certainly not escape proof. My dog Scribble loves to play, especially with new dog buddies. He never gets tired. We have loop trails through meadow and woods all year round on the homestead but will also explore all of Dodge Center with pups on leash walks. I will also try obstacle courses and other games depending on what your dog is up for. I have yet to meet a cat I could not draw out at least a little. For dogs, we will have to try a temperament test with Scribble, who always wants to play more. I can offer boarding on weekends only because I am at my day job for long days Monday through Friday. I can offer pet drop in visits or dog walks in the evening year-round as long as your dog will share a walk with Scribble. A quick cat visit is easy any evening. Your pup's weekend will involve play sessions, games, leash walks and possibly unleashed walks and play, and exploring with exercise. Until I know your dog can be trusted off-leash and we explore the full property a few times, we will do leash walks only on our loop trails (about 20 minutes casual pace to walk them all). Our field is great for playing and offers lots of space to run around. There is always plenty to sniff and explore, with a trail around a pond, and many rabbits, squirrels, birds and deer about. Scribble never gets tired of exploring, and neither will your pet, even if we stay on leash. For cats, I can set up a private spare room and time to explore chaperoned. A private room will have a human bed, cat beds, catnip mats, and at least one climbing tower. Your cat will need to be okay with my guys hissing under the door initially and Scribble coming around to say hi with his tail wagging.

“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”

These boys received absolutely THE best care. WE could tell through the pics and video we received. Katelynn was thorough, confident, loving and definitely trustworthy. We could not be happier! Oscar, Rain, and Jasper had a great time with Katelynn, I could tell! Do yourself a favor and book your pups in a beautiful home with lots of doggie love! Thanks again to Katelynn and her husband for making our vacation a relaxing one!”

“From the moment we entered the location on our initial meet and greet before actual booking, I got the sense that Mercy would fit in and feel at home. That was absolutely true! I definitely plan on booking Holly again in the future. Holly provided a space where Mercy was able to be herself at that first meeting. She had a kennel available for her, but I doubt she even used it. They stated "if she wants to sleep on our bed, that's where she'll sleep!" That warmed my heart and made me feel incredibly comfortable leaving Mercy with her family. However, they were happy to honor my suggestion of kenneling Mercy if there was no one at home since that is what we provide for Mercy at home. I have no doubt Mercy will willingly and joyfully return to Holly again!”

About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and have experience caring for family members’ cats while they were away. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, providing playtime and companionship, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I’m happy to adapt to their needs—whether they love attention and play or prefer a calmer, quieter approach. My goal is to give both you and your cat peace of mind while you’re apart.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have always had a special place in my heart for dogs. Growing up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and goats. From feeding and providing daily care to making sure each animal was safe, comfortable, and well cared for, animals have always been an important part of my life. I have also provided dog-sitting and pet care for family members and friends over the years. These experiences have taught me the importance of being dependable, attentive, and patient while caring for someone else’s pets. I am currently working as a nanny part time with days varying by week. I am available all weeknights after 4:30pm and most weekends Thursday-Sunday! I provide care in the owners’ homes, allowing pets to remain in a familiar environment with their usual routines, belongings, and comforts. I take safety seriously and will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, access to the home, and emergency contacts. I will also keep your home secure, provide regular updates, and treat your space and pets with respect.

When I get him he is always a happy puppy and I can tell he is well taken care of. He comes home and he likes to take naps afterward, poor puppy having so much fun with her dogs and her cute youn son. Nice open space for Spike to walk on leash and not worry about his safety. Definitely booking again (already have the reservations). It’s nice to know that my 11week puppy has a loving and caring place that takes care of him while I am at work.”

They treated her like their own and kept me updated with videos and pictures. It made a stressful day so much easier knowing she was in such good hands. She had so much fun and made new friends! I felt 100% comfortable leaving her in their hands. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve been trusted to care for pets while their owners are away, making sure they’re fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can truly trust. I pay close attention to each dog’s normal routine and personality so they can feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing outside, cuddling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the kind of care they’re used to. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure you feel comfortable too. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see how your pup is doing while they’re with me! 🐾 I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for your pup! I also have a Golden Retriever of my own, so walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention are already a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention and companionship without them being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to adjust to their normal feeding, walking, and potty schedule so they can feel as comfortable as possible. Having another furry friend around would be a welcome addition to our day! 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are extremely important to me. We live on just over 5 acres with plenty of space to explore and our own walking trails throughout the property, which are perfect for getting outside, going on walks, and getting some energy out! Since I already have a Golden Retriever of my own, our home is very dog-friendly and we naturally have plenty of dog toys, supplies, and space for pups to feel comfortable. Our property is not fenced, so dogs will never be allowed to roam outside unsupervised. I’m more than happy to use a secure in-ground tie-out for dogs who are comfortable with one, or keep them leashed whenever we’re outside. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, so I’ll always follow your instructions and do my best to make your pup feel safe, loved, and at home while they’re in my care. Before their stay, I’d love for you to tell me a little about your pup—their personality, daily routine, favorite things, any quirks or tendencies they may have, and anything else you think I should know. The more I know about them, the better I can make their time with me feel comfortable and familiar! 🐾

About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.

She did not need instructions for courtesies like wiping off paws when coming inside on a wet day, she just did it as the standard. I highly recommend Emily for dog walking, in house visits, or other services.”

About: I've always loved dogs. I've spent five years working at a dog shelter as office manager, intake person which includes giving oral and injection medications, adoption coordinator, feeding and watering, cleaning, and socializing. I'm available during the week before 9am and after 1pm. Weekends are open. I work at the humane society but don't get to interact with the furry friends. I miss them! Also, I enjoy nature walks and stop as often as the dogs do to look at things. :) My schedule is flexible. When I am with dogs, it is sometimes hard to draw my attention away from them because they are so very loving and giving. I like to give that back to them.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have always had a special place in my heart for dogs. Growing up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and goats. From feeding and providing daily care to making sure each animal was safe, comfortable, and well cared for, animals have always been an important part of my life. I have also provided dog-sitting and pet care for family members and friends over the years. These experiences have taught me the importance of being dependable, attentive, and patient while caring for someone else’s pets. I am currently working as a nanny part time with days varying by week. I am available all weeknights after 4:30pm and most weekends Thursday-Sunday! I provide care in the owners’ homes, allowing pets to remain in a familiar environment with their usual routines, belongings, and comforts. I take safety seriously and will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, access to the home, and emergency contacts. I will also keep your home secure, provide regular updates, and treat your space and pets with respect.

I’m very free during the week, on weekends, and after school days. I’m willing to spend as much time with pets as needed and show them human compassion. Whether it is going on walks, getting belly rubs, or receiving treats for doing their best. I believe pets should be shown with the same love they show their humans.

I am very flexible with my time. I do have a cat allergy but that won’t stop me from that either! I’m always here to help you’re best friend 😊 Im very flexible with my schedule for a couple months! I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣

“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”

“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”

I didn’t worry about him in the slightest while we were away, just missed him! Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️”

About: I have been around dogs and cats for many years, and some farm animals. I currently have two adult cats and one young dog. We live on 5.5 acres that are fenced-ish, but the yard is certainly not escape proof. My dog Scribble loves to play, especially with new dog buddies. He never gets tired. We have loop trails through meadow and woods all year round on the homestead but will also explore all of Dodge Center with pups on leash walks. I will also try obstacle courses and other games depending on what your dog is up for. I have yet to meet a cat I could not draw out at least a little. For dogs, we will have to try a temperament test with Scribble, who always wants to play more. I can offer boarding on weekends only because I am at my day job for long days Monday through Friday. I can offer pet drop in visits or dog walks in the evening year-round as long as your dog will share a walk with Scribble. A quick cat visit is easy any evening. Your pup's weekend will involve play sessions, games, leash walks and possibly unleashed walks and play, and exploring with exercise. Until I know your dog can be trusted off-leash and we explore the full property a few times, we will do leash walks only on our loop trails (about 20 minutes casual pace to walk them all). Our field is great for playing and offers lots of space to run around. There is always plenty to sniff and explore, with a trail around a pond, and many rabbits, squirrels, birds and deer about. Scribble never gets tired of exploring, and neither will your pet, even if we stay on leash. For cats, I can set up a private spare room and time to explore chaperoned. A private room will have a human bed, cat beds, catnip mats, and at least one climbing tower. Your cat will need to be okay with my guys hissing under the door initially and Scribble coming around to say hi with his tail wagging.

“Drew was awesome. Communicated thoroughly and took time to send pictures of my dog. He was flexible with both drop off and pick up, which was a huge lifesaver due to change in travel plans (out of my control). I am super grateful- my dog came home clean, happy and healthy. Highly recommend!”

“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”

“10 STARS !!!!!! Our sitter canceled at the last minute and Katelynn was able to take all three dogs. We were leaving for a 10 day cruise trip and so appreciate her taking them in. These boys received absolutely THE best care. WE could tell through the pics and video we received. Katelynn was thorough, confident, loving and definitely trustworthy. We could not be happier! Oscar, Rain, and Jasper had a great time with Katelynn, I could tell! Do yourself a favor and book your pups in a beautiful home with lots of doggie love! Thanks again to Katelynn and her husband for making our vacation a relaxing one!”

“From the moment we entered the location on our initial meet and greet before actual booking, I got the sense that Mercy would fit in and feel at home. That was absolutely true! I definitely plan on booking Holly again in the future. Holly provided a space where Mercy was able to be herself at that first meeting. She had a kennel available for her, but I doubt she even used it. They stated "if she wants to sleep on our bed, that's where she'll sleep!" That warmed my heart and made me feel incredibly comfortable leaving Mercy with her family. However, they were happy to honor my suggestion of kenneling Mercy if there was no one at home since that is what we provide for Mercy at home. I have no doubt Mercy will willingly and joyfully return to Holly again!”
