CHANGES EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 1, 2024
There is a $20 fee per dog if you pick your dog(s) up past 24 hours from drop off. This is going from the drop off day to the day of pick-up only meaning the first and last day of their stay. Example: Drop them off at noon and pick them up by or before noon no fee. Please ask if you have questions.
Our pick up and drop off hours are 7:00 a.m. through 6:00 p.m. If you pick your dogs up past 6:00 p.m. there is $40 fee per dog.
We offer overnight boarding every day of the year except when we take vacation. We will post the dates of our vacation several months before we take time off.
We offer day care Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. No longer Saturdays or Sundays.
Our business phones are land lines. We do not have an option to receive or send texts from our telephones.
Thank you for working with us. We appreciate you and enjoy working with both you and your dogs.
In order to reduce the risk of spreading community diseases from dog to dog we would like to make the following suggestions. When you know your dog is going to stay with us for daycare or overnight boarding when possible avoid other dogs, veterinarian visits, groomer appointments, and dog parks 15 days prior to their stay.
Open 365 Days per year including all holidays. 24 hours per day.
Gift Certificates Available
We have updated a policy in order to better serve all of our clients. When you reserve dates to board your dog, we need the exact dates to secure your reservation. If you return early you will be responsible to pay for the dates of your reservation.
WHO are we? A husband and a wife, who love animals. We created Friendly Paws Pet Care because we have lived and worked with animals our entire lives. Our decision to work with cats and dogs grew from following our hearts and doing what we love. Roger and I, Susan feel grateful and honored to do this work because animals bring more joy to our hearts then words alone can describe.
WHAT have we gained from working with our beloved pets? They have been our most profound teachers by mirroring to us our most valuable life lessons. They taught us how to laugh more often, how to relax and how to stop taking ourselves so seriously and how to always offer love, especially when it is not offered to us. They never judge us if we fall backward on our journey. They love us unconditionally.
WHERE is Friendly Paws Pet Care Center? It is within our home north of La Crescent, MN. For more than 13 years our home has been a safe haven for rescued animals to heal. When they are healthy we find homes for them through adoption.
WHEN is Friendly Paws Pet Care available? We offer Day Care, and Overnight Boarding 365 days a year. Arrivals and Departures 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
WHY choose to work with Friendly Paws Pet Care? Peace of mind. Your beloved pets will live with us within our home so when they are displaying a desire for affection or they are set to go outside to relieve themselves they don't have to wait, we can address their needs as they arise. They will sleep near us as well.
If you email us and do not get a response within 24 hours please give us a call at (507) 643-5167
Our intention is to offer your beloved family member(s) the same comfort, love, nurturing, respect and well-being that you offer them.
Roger and Susan Thicke
