This was a terribly difficult job because our home is under renovation and we needed to keep out kitties in an area behind a plastic, zippered curtain. As long as Lake Minnetonka Pet Sitters has availability, we will never board again. 5 stars isn't enough. P.S. licensed and insured. This is a real business.

We have been to many different dog daycares and boarding facilities and my husband used to work at…read moreone so we tend to be pretty picky about where to send our dogs. Many are really made to optimize profit often at the expense of the dog and their well-being. This absolutely is not the case with fusion pet retreat. We were completely pleased with how our Daycare trial went for our two dogs. We got a great tour of the facility. It was very clean and notably. It was one of the few places where when you go into the back, the dogs in their kennels are not barking and crying or showing any signs of distress . Most of them were sleeping soundly in their respective areas. The manager was great. Answered all the questions and gave us a very thorough rundown of what to expect. Sion is very unique and that they do many different things to accommodate the specific personality of the dog. And it was very obvious that the people who work here understand dogs and enjoy them. It is an open play experience, but they do not have the dogs play all day every day, which is actually very good for them! They have them take breaks so they do not get over stimulated-which is unique to Fusion and highlights their knowledge of dogs. The place is huge and not at all crowded. They have several different areas for the dogs to play so that they can easily group them by play style. My one dog it's only eight months old and newer to this environment so he was a little timid. We got many videos and photos of him playing with other More timid dogs, and several staff members who slowly introduced him to the bigger area and he was very happy. We will use this place again it again without hesitation !

Our puppy trainer recommended Fusion and we've been taking our dogs there for more than a year…read more They are WONDERFUL. Our trainer recommended them because the staff here are all very knowledgeable about dog behavior and best practices for managing dog behavior. So I know the work I'm doing with them at home will be continued at daycare. They do a nice job of giving the dogs play time and break time -- on hot days the pool comes out, on rainy days, they can play inside. The facility itself is nice, modern and clean. Everyone who works here is friendly and extremely competent managing dogs. I get a great report card every day my dogs are at daycare (extra charge) so I can see what their day was like. We've also participated in the training program, which Fusion has recently expanded. We put our puppy through Basic Manners and our older dog through "reactive behavior" training. Both classes were excellent. The instructors are great and really focus on answering your questions and helping you/your dog. I really love their training programs and they are really pretty reasonable price-wise for what you get. We've used the grooming services, which is just an extra bonus because we can get that taken care of while they are at daycare. I have never boarded them overnight here, but otherwise can recommend just about any and all services from Fusion.

Forget MY opinion; my 3 dogs adore Pets Are Inn!…read more This place is a like a hostel for animals. Instead of boarding them someplace where they'll be in crates most of the time except for an occasional walk (which you'll probably pay for), Pets Are Inn contracts with pet lovers who take your animals into their home while you away and treat them just like members of the family! We've used them 4 times now and have been lucky enough to get the same family each time (families develop relationships with the animals). The service will pick your animals up for you and drop them off (a great convenience when you're getting ready for a trip). My dogs practically jump out of their skins when the van pulls up because they are so excited to go stay with their "second family!" Upon return, we've always received a little note from the host family with an update about how the dogs did, etc. (They always got to sleep in the beds with the folks, etc.). And the best part? The price is comparable to that of a kennel, not crazy expensive as you might expect. We'll never board our dogs again. Thanks, Pets Are Inn!

Our family and dog are very traumatized by our dog's shaved grooming. I only want to let you know…read moreso they don't do this again to another client's dog. This is a Coton de Tulear, not a dog that is shaved.  This is a long hair dog, She is now not protected by her coat for sun etc.  This was her first grooming as she is still a puppy of 8 months old. I have brushed her daily and she only had a few areas under her paws that had problems  with matts.  Which they asked if it was OK to cut those out and I said yes, but not to shaving her WHOLE body. When i gave Riley to the groomer , I said this was her first grooming and I just wanted a trim for a Coton! if they had researched my dog, no Coton I have ever seen has been shaved. They should of called me and asked if it was OK to shave her. I feel they took the easy and fast way out to just shave her instead of bathing her, and brushing her and doing a cut.  I have been taking really good care of her and her coat. This was a really big mistake that we have to live with for a very long time. I hope it doesn't happen to your DOG!!!

Tabatha answered all my questions and was very happy to take the time to make sure everything was taken care of. Cheryl was our cat's caregiver and I could not be more pleased with her services.

Thank you for the excellent care of Cosmo, it was really a weight off my mind knowing that he was in your capable hands.

We recently had Tabatha from Rock Star Dog Walking & Pet Sitting over at our house for some daytime…read moredog visits because I had to travel for work. I can't say enough wonderful things about her service! Tabatha emailed us a note plus photos of our dogs each day she was at our house for pet visits. She also leaves you handwritten progress notes at your house on how your dog(s) did the day she was there. It was nice to be on the road for work yet be able to see that my dogs were such well-taken care of. Tabatha treats your pets like she would her own animals. I recommend Tabatha so highly that my dog groomer is actually going to pass out Rock Star Dog Walking & Pet Sitting business cards to her customers. As a registered nurse, I highly recommend Rock Star Dog Walking and Pet Sitting to anyone needing pet caretaker services.

Daycare here is one of my pups favorite things!…read more My pup went here for YEARS! We have since moved out of the area which is why he doesn't go now. There's an indoor and outdoor area which is nice so the facility can be flexible based on weather where the dogs play. This is not the frills, nap time required kind of vibe. It's an unassuming, barebones facility full of employees who just love dogs and dogs who love dogs. This was what worked for my pup- he doesn't care if it looks pretty to humans- he cares (and I care) how he's treated. And he was treated very well and would be jumping around in the parking lot as we would walk up because he was so excited. And the staff would be excited to see him as well. The cost is in line with other daycares in the area - buying a package will help the per day cost. For my pup - totally worth it.

I do not understand how there are so many good reviews for this place. I've been to other doggy…read moredaycare places (Stone Mountain), but Ruff Love was closer and more convenient, so I thought I'd give it a try. I went in today for an orientation and a walk through at about 10AM. IMO, there were way too many dogs in each area. The dog rooms are small and dimly lit, and all connected, so the atmosphere is very loud. I was shocked at how many large dogs were in such a small area. As we walked through with the staff, a fight broke out between two dogs. Others joined in because there was no where to go. One staff in the room for about 20-25 large dogs. No wonder. There is simply not enough room for the number and size of dogs in that space. I would never leave my dog there.
