Core Pet Zone

"Old school. Basic, safe, friendly. Parking lot is a bit small, but manageable. My pups seem to love going there and the staff seem happy to host them. Small family run business."

"We have been taking our pup to core pet zone for 10 years, Vicki and her family are like her second family. She gets so excited to go play with her dog and human friends! When we need to board her we know she’s having a little vacation of her own staying at core pet zone. When we got married they even staged a doggie wedding between our dog and another one of her dog friends, it was adorable!"

"The only place I’ve found with cage-free overnights - my puppy loves to sleep on the bed with the overnight staff and I appreciate knowing that someone is always in the room with them. She always comes home exhausted from daycare, and gets extremely excited when we pull up. We’ve tried a number of places in the twin cities and Core Pet is by far the best. Plus, they sell her food and treats so we never run out, and costs are much lower than some cities daycares."

"I cannot recommend Core Pet Zone enough. We started bringing our dog there when we adopted her 2.5 years ago and it has become her second home. Vicki and her family are incredibly genuine, caring, flexible, and knowledgeable. They have always gone above and beyond to help us out - often boarding our dog for us last minute when we’ve had to go out of town suddenly. I can’t count how many times I have said aloud, “Thank God for Core Pet Zone!” This is a small, family-owned business and it is run as such. Things are not as streamlined as they may be at a big business dog boarding facility. However, my dog absolutely loves this place and I trust them more than anyone. I can’t say enough how awesome this place is. Love, love, love!"

"I never thought I would ever use doggie daycare but, after we met Vicki it seemed to be just what we needed. She and the staff are so compassionate and caring towards the dogs. You can tell they truly love what they do. It is so comforting to know that our pup is safe and having fun, all while getting the care/attention that he deserves. They are flexible and will work with you and your schedule. I don't know what we would do without them!"
