Anyone looking for dog boarding in Cottage Grove has a wider option here, because the business accepts boarding dogs from anywhere in the Twin Cities metro. Owners in Woodbury or across the metro can use it too.

The approach is personal rather than kennel-style. Care is built around each pet's own routine. New clients start with a complimentary meet and greet consultation before booking.

What services does Christine's offer?

• Personalized pet sitting tailored to each pet's routine
• Dog walking and hiking excursions at regional and state parks

• Pet taxi and concierge transport, including pickup and drop-off

What makes it different from a typical kennel?

The hiking excursions stand out. Instead of laps around a run, dogs can get out on the trails at regional and state parks. The website has a warm, outdoorsy tone and talks about treating client pets like family.

Medication administration is also part of the service. That matters for owners of older dogs or dogs on a daily prescription.

Is the business insured and certified?

Yes. Christine's Professional Pet Care is fully insured and bonded through Pet Sitters International. It is an active member of Professional Pet Sitters of Minnesota and lists Pet CPR and First Aid certification.
