Doggy Day Care West 7th

“Takenya is so sweet with our girl. Lilah has never stayed without a family member or trusted friend before so we were nervous. Lilah had so much fun. We got such cute videos of her time there. Our dog came home & happy & tired. She took a big nap. We already booked Takenya again!”

About: Hi, I'm Rosie :) I'm a fairly new MN resident from Boston pursuing law school! As a Shih Tzu owner myself, I understand just how special the bond between pets and their families truly is! Here are some things about me: - 5+ years of experience bathing and helping train younger dogs - Comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and conditions - I work from home full-time, so your pet will definitely receive plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day - I like to keep a close and communicative relationship with owners to ensure you and your pup can trust me <3 - Because I work from home full-time, I have the bandwidth to take regular breaks for walks and playtime. I have to walk my puppy about 5x/day, so your pet will definitely have playtime and plenty of walks. - Due to my work environment, I'm open to same-day bookings! - I have a spacious living room, large couch, and secured balcony. I maintain a clean environment, giving your best friend a comfy home to be in - My environment is best suited for smaller/medium dogs, but I'm open to dogs of all ages (puppies to seniors) - I love and am happy to send photos and messages throughout the day! - Dogs are allowed on the bed and furniture - My goal is always to make your pets feel safe and at home while you're away <3

Low stress, quiet home, play/exercise, and lots of affection. Nothing but the best for Fluffy! Recently retired and ready to provide overnight boarding for small to medium-sized dogs. I have the time and desire to provide excellent care for your dog. Fluffy will receive lots of attention and affection. Your dog will be in a safe and quiet home environment. Access to small grass yard (no pesticides) under my supervision. Special care requests, feeding schedules, etc. can be accommodated. I have been caring for animals (pets) my entire life.

About: I have had my own dogs (and cats, chickens, bunnies, etc!) my whole life. I have also been relied on by friends, family, and neighbors for years to care for their fur babies while traveling. My husband and I also foster dogs through various local rescues! I work from home and my partner has a flexible schedule. Usually, we are both home and able to provide 24/7 care for the animals we board! I have a very large fenced yard with two dog pools for hot summer days. Our chickens stay in a separate enclosed area. My home offers multiple rooms and, due to the fact that we often foster, we have several kennels and other “safe space” areas if your fur baby feels safer hanging out or sleeping separately from the rest of the pack. Although, we are a household that encourages pets to curl up on the furniture! We have 3 dogs- a collie/Aussie mix, yellow lab, and husky. All are friendly, up to date on vaccines, and love other dogs! Lastly, we are a cat friendly home but do have separate spaces available if separation from them is best.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals and having them around has always been a normal part of my day-to-day life. I’m comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and way of feeling comfortable. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attention throughout the day, keep up with regular walks and feeding schedules, and spend time with pets rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or would rather relax nearby while I work, I’m happy to adapt to what they’re used to at home. I offer both boarding in my home and house sitting, and my priority is making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll follow your normal routines and instructions closely and provide regular updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home throughout most of the day and can provide regular walks, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and plenty of attention. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I want pets to feel safe and comfortable while they’re in my care, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and household routines, and I’m happy to accommodate crates or other routines your pet is used to. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

“Xan was a lifesaver. My wife had surgery in Ashland and I was able to get Rocky in with her on 2 days notice. She was great with him and would I definitely recommend and use her again. Thank you.”

I am experienced giving medications and taking care of fur babies with special needs or requests. I love taking bigger, more energetic dogs for runs, playing fetch, and getting their energy out through active play times. I also love smaller, older or less active dogs, I have an 12 year old puggle, Fritzie, who I have had since he was a puppy, playing tug, going for walks and short play times is all in our daily routine. I would be happy to spend time with your furry companion giving them lots of love, attention and meetings all of their needs! I am currently back to work. I work 8am-4pm Monday-Friday, therefore, your pup would need to be comfortable relaxing at home during the day on the week days and have open availability on the weekends for all the play, adventures and snuggles. I am available to stay at your place to maintain your pups regular routine as much as possible. Due to recently relocating I am unable to board pets at my current home, but at looking forward to being able to do so very soon! I am available to come to your home for in home boarding, doggie daycare or daily exercise. I am an outdoor enthusiast who loves having a four legged running partner, exploring near by dog parks or strolling around the neighborhood on a daily walk and playtime.

“I can't speak highly enough of Kristine! I took a chance on a day care near my work and sent a request to her the night before needing her. Upon meeting her the next morning, all my apprehensions left! She was genuinely welcoming to me, but more importantly, to my pup, Bella. You know how you kinda wish your pet would look back and wonder why you're leaving them especially at a brand new place? Bella pranced right up to Kristine's house and was ready for the day's adventure. Clearly, I was more nervous than Bella. Kristine sent me an update within the first hour to let me know Bella was doing fine. It was even more exciting to hear that my little Bella was playing well with Kristine's bigger dog, Gio. What a twosome they were! Thank you, Kristine, for making this work emergency of mine doable and caring for Bella so lovingly.”

About: As a teacher, I know each dog is unique and individual. I’m a cautious and observant pet sitter who strives to do what’s best for your pet. I prefer written directions as I know each dog has unique needs and do my best to follow them. I’ve been lucky to grow up with a cairn terrier, to have been a pet sitter for my sister’s pets for five years before I joined Rover, and I’m the mama of an adorable Labrador Husky. Looking forward to meeting your pack! I’m an online teacher (home full time) who teaches part time summer school as well. I have time during my prep time, after classes and on the weekends to play with your dog and give walks. If your dog allows, I will walk them when I walk my dog, which is 3x a day. I will check on the safety and well being of your pet. I will replenish food and water is always available. If they need some play time, I will also do that. Want them to feel safe.

“Susie did an amazing job with our pup Quinn! She was very communicative and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend Susie for your pets care!”

About: 🐶 Over the years, my wife Diane and I have cared for many pups—ours, family’s, and friends’. We both melt at nearly every dog we meet. We raised two beloved Miniature Schnauzers who became diabetic and blind in their senior years, so we’re very familiar with special needs, administering medications, and tailoring care to individual temperaments. We've also socialized young rescue pups, many with special needs, and are always attentive to a dog's unique comfort zone. Whether it’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, giving meds, or just making a pup feel safe, we handle it with care and compassion. We also love capturing moments—expect plenty of photos and videos to keep you in the loop while you’re away. 👋 We’re a dog-loving couple who treat every pup like extended family. Diane is semi-retired and the primary caregiver during the day, which gives us a lot of flexibility. I work full-time, but I’m involved mornings, evenings, and weekends, so we share the care based on what each dog needs. When we commit to a pup, we coordinate as a team to make sure their routine is consistent and they’re getting all the love, play, and attention they need. Whether it’s a walk-heavy schedule or a snuggle-on-the-couch situation, we adjust with ease. 🏡 We live in a first-floor, multi-level condo in St. Paul’s historic Hill District, complete with a fenced-in backyard for safe and easy outside time. Indoors, it’s calm and cozy—ideal for dogs who like a peaceful home base. We've kennel-trained our own dogs and usually set up a small kennel under the bedside table, offering a quiet den-like space many pups naturally gravitate to. Whether your dog is staying with us or we’re caring for them in your home, our focus is always on keeping them safe, comfortable, and stress-free. We do our best to maintain their routine and bring them comfort while you’re away.
