1. Uponor  

Most months in Minnesota are cold and that means walking around our houses with socks and slippers. No more! On top of providing fire safety and plumbing systems, Uponor also designs and makes radiant floor heating. Heat is moved evenly throughout the floors where people stand the most. The innovative flooring saves on energy costs and is great for allergy sufferers.

2. Alpha Dog Care 

Planning on going away for a short weekend and don’t want to take your pets with you, yet don’t want to put them in a kennel either? Try Alpha Dog Care, which will visit your home to pet. The business also offers dog walking and schedules doggy sleepovers, where you can drop your pet off to play with other pets for the day.

3. Wings Financial

Wings Financial in Apple Valley is the first financial institution built upon a dedication to men and women in the aviation industry (though it now serves community members in the Minneapolis-St. Paul and Seattle areas, as well). The company is now a full-serviced financial institution with over $2 billion in assets.

4. Andy’s Market

People may see Andy’s Market from the outside and think, gas station. But the market inside so much more than a typical gas station convenience store. Inside is a variety of cheeses, deli meats and cold salad options. You can also make your own pizza. Located at 14113 Galaxie Avenue. (It’s also rumored to be haunted.)
