I will come to your home, and nothing will change for your pets. Their care routine will be exactly the same as if you were home! From playing to snuggling, going for walks and having adventures, your pets are always cared for with the love and attention they deserve!
I offer an option where at no point will I leave your home during my stay. Your pets can be professionally supervised 24/7. This is great for new pups, those pets with extra health needs, or anxiety concerns. Just reach out for more information.
There are no feeding restrictions, we adhere to any existing diet. I am also trained to administer any medications. We can add on any additional services like a bath or nail care if you like. I also offer whole home cleaning with this option at an additional charge. See Home Cleaning for additional information.
Arrival is after 3pm and departure is by 11am. Any early arrivals or late departures are booked as an additional day unless otherwise discussed. Please reach out for special requests and accommodations.
First 2 pets: $105/ day, each additional pet: $5/day

I have 1 dog in my home and I will never have anyone else's pet in my home for the duration of your pet's stay. I will not leave my home for the entire time your pet is here, they will be monitored 24/7! This service includes all the fun they can imagine: Long walks, 1 on 1 play time, 1 on 1 quiet time, and making them feel like they're part of our family! Plus, twice daily picture and video updates for their humans.

*For the safety of all parties, we do not offer this service to any dog with current or past aggressive behaviors. This includes, but is not limited to: Same Sex Aggression, Fear Aggression, Human Aggression, Dog Aggression, Food or Toy Aggression or Resource Guarding. If your pet(s) struggle with these behaviors, we can work with you in the setting of your own home.*
When your pet is enjoying their vacation, maybe you'll want a nail trim to help making coming home a breeze! I offer this option in a low-stress environment, allowing your pup to decide how long each foot takes. I will use traditional nail clipper or a nail Dremel, whichever they're most comfortable with.
This option can be added onto any of the other services.
*I will only trim nails as short as the natural nail will allow, I WILL NOT cut their quicks to make them appear shorter!*
$20 per pet.
When your pet is in my care, we have our own vacation! We take lots of walks, we play, and we have fun! Sometimes all of those adventures mean dirt!
They will be bathed and dried right before the end of their vacation, that way to get to enjoy a fresh cuddle with your best friend!
We only use hypoallergenic handmade soap from Young Living's Animal Scents line. Formulated specifically for their health, so there's no worry about allergies for you or your pet! If you prefer to use your own soaps, that can be arranged. A pet blow dryer or towel dry are available, depending on what your pet is comfortable with.
This option can be added onto any of the other services.
$30 per pet.

This is not only for services that I provide but can be used for vet appointments, dog sporting events, shows, puppy transport, flight nannies, etc.
Ground Transport: $3/ mile, round-trip, and travel accommodations as necessary.
Flight Nanny: Prices vary depending on duration and requirements. Please reach out for a Flight Nanny consultation.
I am happy to offer a variety of cleaning package options for when I come and stay with your pets. It can be as simple as cleaning the floors and vacuuming the carpets, or as detailed as deep cleaning all surfaces, interior windows, cleaning your fridge, cleaning your bathroom, etc.
Prices vary depending on service and job size. Reach out for more information, and to customize your service!
These are all made to order with a variety of sizes, colors and patterns available! These mats are great boredom busters for cats, dogs, ferrets and pigs! Use your favorite dry food or treat and let your pet "snuffle" to find it using their noses!

This option is great if you get stuck at work, have an emergency situation where you can't be home, or if you just work long days and don't want your pet home all alone.
I come over and take care of whatever is required. We can go for a walk, play fetch, Mental stimulation games, clean the litter box, feed a meal, administer medication, etc.
$30 per stop by for a 30 minute duration.

Now offering 2 options: Group Walks or a Solo Walk.
For a pup to be able to go on Group walks, they must be dog friendly, well mannered and have good leash manners. If your pup does not fall in that category, Solo walks are available for some special one-on-one time!
Types of walks: Group or Solo.
Group: $15/ 30 minutes
Solo: $25/ 30 minutes

Here at Life's Golden, we come to you. Anywhere, any time. There is a travel fee for any client outside of a 10 mile radius of Winsted, MN. This is a round-trip charge per mile that you are agreeing to when you book your services.
Mileage charge: $1/ mile, round-trip.
For my out of state clients, airfare may be more cost effective than the mileage charge. Clients are responsible for booking flights that correlate with their boarding or farm care dates.
Any extended dates or last minute changes/ cancelations made by the client are at the responsibility of the client.
The client of any out of state booking is responsible for any lodging and per diem extras for the service provider as result of last minute changes or cancelations by the client.
Here at Life's Golden, we love all animals!
I wanted to face the lack of one-on-one boarding options. So many places only offer multi-family environments. I prefer to be able to focus ALL of my attention on your pet(s) and their needs, not just multitasking with a group. I also wanted to see a safe and comfortable option that included every living creature, giving their humans a peace of mind.
Here we're more than just cats and dogs, we cater to all! Reptiles, small mammals, marsupials, livestock, birds, etc. You have it, we love it!
Owned and operated by a woman that's done it all, you can rest assured that no matter the walk of life, they're going to be cared for the way they're supposed to!
We cater to all special requests. Whether it's medications, special dietary concerns, supplementation, daily soaks, baths, specific UV requirements or physical limitations- No need is too big or small!
We specialize in: holistically raised, naturally reared, intact management, and biologically appropriate diets. Titers are gladly accepted and heavily encouraged!
Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions!
