Paws Hoofs Claws is a locally owned business that will come to your home or farm, and provide basic care and exercise when you are away for a day, a weekend, or longer. The business is open every day of the year, including all holidays.
From our home base of Fertile, Minnesota, Paws Hoofs Claws visits companion animals and farm animals to provide a drop in service with visits of mostly 1 to 4 visits for each day of 30 minutes, an hour or more. Our care providers come to your home or farm, so the animals stay at home in a familiar, peaceful, and comfortable place. With our business, we do not take your animals from you.
The service area of Paws Hoofs Claws is: Fertile (home hub), Crookston/Fisher (west hub), Thief River Falls/Newfolden (north hub), Bemidji (east hub), Twin Valley (south hub). Like postal workers, we’ll come in nice or horrible weather on smooth or nasty roads with a 4X Silverado and a Honda Civic to help. We’ll work in the surrounding areas from each hub. If you are outside of this main service area, you can definitely discuss your situation with Paws Hoofs Claws to determine the possibility of service to you. Sometimes, if the providers have room in their schedules, we could drive and work outside the service area with plenty of help with gas.

With farm animals, Paws Hoofs Claws can handle your chores for any farm animal with training and specific instruction. The owner of the business grew up with a cat, a dog, and a horse, Suzie. Some of the most grateful clients are farm clients because most farmers don’t usually get to attend family events, like weddings or funerals. For regular and exotic farm animals, the business and its workers will look forward to the fun and the challenge of its new clients. Paws Hoofs Claws can help the farmers with: daily animal chores, seasonal help, like calving, and related animal chores, like haying.
Paws Hoofs Claws will complete the daily record for each visit and will provide a texted photo of the animals to the clients for each visit.
During our orientation/training, we’ll complete and discuss the paperwork: Work Order, Contract, Daily Record, and Receipt. The owner of the animals and the owner of the business will discuss the work order and the price of the visits. The complexity of the visits plays a role in the price of services plus the location of the work. Since the start of the business, each client has been a repeat client, which attests to our excellent service quality and reasonable pricing.
Paws Hoofs Claws is a visitor for companion animals and farm animals. We are not a sitter who stays. Depending on your needs, we can visit 1 to 4 times per day.
We’re a small, locally owned business. The owner and operator of Paws Hoofs Claws is a small town girl from Newfolden, MN so the business serves NW Minnesota from a home base of Fertile, MN. We bring the service to cities, small towns, and rural areas.
