Downtown Dogs - Dog Grooming and Daycare - Minneapolis, MN

Member since May 2019

Welcome to my full-service pet care facility, where your furry friends are treated like family! With a focus on dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and training, I have proudly served the pet community since May 2019. My credentials include being a certified dog trainer through the Animal Behavior College (ABCDT) and a certified pet groomer (ABCPG). I’m also certified in Pet First Aid and CPR by the American Red Cross, ensuring your pets are in safe hands. Whether you have a small pup weighing under 20 lbs or a larger dog upwards of 80 lbs, I am equipped to provide the best care for all breeds and sizes.

At my facility, I offer competitive rates that cater to your pet’s needs. Dog daycare is available at just $5/hour (plus tax) for up to six hours, with a flat rate of $31/day (plus tax) after that. For overnight stays, boarding prices range from $34 to $45/night (plus tax) depending on the type of boarding you choose. My grooming services are tailored to each pet’s specific requirements, with prices determined by breed and coat type. I provide a range of grooming options, including pet bathing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and even fluff drying, ensuring your pets leave looking and feeling their best!

I understand that convenience is key for pet parents, which is why I offer flexible cancellation policies and personalized attention to each pet. While I do not offer mobile services, my facility is designed to provide a safe and loving environment for your pets to thrive. Ready to give your furry friend the care they deserve? Book me through Petworks today and let's create a tail-wagging experience for your beloved pet!
