✨✨Meet Jones✨✨

Jones is the cutest little pug who requires specialized care due to having a stroke. He needs to be carried up/down stairs and requires a special diet of soft food with water added, as he isn’t able to drink water regularly.

He’s a feisty little guy who knows when it’s mealtime (gets fed 3x/ day), and he will yell at you to let you know he’s hungry and if you’re taking too long preparing his food🤭. He’s the biggest cuddle bug and loves his pets and snuggling with his humans. His sister Lucy also loves having company over and getting loved on 🥰

Have a medically complex pet and rather have someone experienced and trustworthy stay with them at your home while you’re out of town? I can help! Feel free to message me!

**house sitting is still on a limited basis, for now **

Hi neighbors,

Effective immediately, I’m not accepting any new boarding or daycare requests while I navigate Shakopee’s updated regulations for boarding/daycare within residential areas.

I am still available for in-home pet sitting (client’s home) and drop-in visits. I hope to offer boarding and daycare services again in the near future.

Thank you for your understanding!
– Ally ♥️

I got a text this morning from my sweet client that one of my favorite kitties, Romeo, suddenly and unexpectedly passed away last night. I am so heartbroken. He was an absolute sweetheart and so young too (only 5yrs old). I had just been over there last week to visit and got to cuddle and love on him one last time 🥹

Rest peacefully, Romeo. You were such a special boy and will be greatly missed ♥️

The sweetest little boy 🐈! I had the pleasure of doing drop-ins for Django while his family was on vacation, and he is the most cuddly and snuggly little guy 🥰

As I gain more clients, my schedule is starting to fill up quicker. If you’re interested in having me care for your pet while you’re away, please let me know as soon as you know 😉

One year ago, I took a leap and turned a dream into reality by opening my own pet sitting business 🐾

Hi, I’m Ally! I’m a mom to 3 amazing humans and 2 spoiled fur babies. I’m a failed veterinarian turned underwriter, but my heart has always belonged to animals (honestly, probably a little more than my husband. Haha jk-ish! 😅). I believe in kindness, equality, and that no human or animal is better than the other. That belief carries into everything I do, especially how I care for your pets.

Over this past year, so many of my clients’ pets have become like family to me, and I’m beyond grateful for the trust placed in me. Watching your pets feel safe, loved, and happy in your absence is truly the best part of what I do. If you’re looking for a loving, knowledgeable, and experienced sitter, I’d love to help! Here’s to year one and many more tail wags ahead!

Astro decided my husband’s lap is the official headquarters for today’s meeting… and the agenda is snoring at maximum volume. I’m just here documenting the important work being done. 🎥💤

10/10 dedication to the nap life

I am officially booked for boarding Spring Break week (March 26-April 5th) but I have availability for drop-in visits for one client during this time. I am also filling up for April and have began booking into May, so secure your spot today if you are needing pet care!

Sprout says if you want your pet to be loved on like this, she encourages you to message me 😉

Dearest Gentle Readers,

It has been observed that three most distinguished members of society took their post at the grand window this morning, carefully surveying their snow-dusted kingdom. Not a squirrel may scamper, nor a delivery carriage arrive, without their immediate notice. Such vigilance. Such devotion. Such impeccable posture.

While their humans attend to pressing matters beyond the estate, these noble companions remain under the finest care, complete with attentive service, enrichment, and belly rubs most befitting their rank.

Should your own noble companion require supervision whilst you journey afar, know that accommodations are now being reserved.

After all, dear reader…a well-cared-for pup is the greatest status symbol of them all.

Yours devotedly,
Lady Barkington (Ally) 😉
