Caring, Safe Dog Advocate
Pet care experience
I have worked with Lynne Bengston and Safe Hand's Animal Rescue in Minneapolis since they opened (which I believe is 10 years now). I've done fundraising, fostering and adoption for them,, but mainly I've been a voice for the rescue group to get dogs fostered and adopted. I have fostered several dogs for them and often times a "foster failure" as I ended up keeping the babies. I currently have a lovely black lab mix named Millie and a senior hospice dog named Wally and we'd love to care for your baby too. I have to say though I work 40 hours a week and own a condo so your baby must be potty trained and fairly well mannered. I take my dogs out for walks twice a day, they are not just let out in the yard. I prefer weekend work but we can work out week days as well under the right circumstances. Also, I'm very focused on safety for all the dogs in my home (mine and the dog I'm caring for). I have the ability to section off my home into 3 areas if you'd prefer the dogs be in separate spaces when I'm not home. The only reason I say no dogs on the bed is because I allowed it all the way up until I woke up one morning with a wood tick bite and had to be put on antibiotics for a month. Yikes! But Millie still sneaks up at times ;-) Also, if you book a month or more in advance, I can likely request to work from home that whole week!
Reviews
Tris is the BEST!! Every time I drop Patterson off, she leaps out of the car to greet Tris and never looks back as they walk away together. I always feel so happy knowing that Patterson is being so well taken-care of -- she's a part of Tris' family!
Patterson came home happy, loved, and pleasantly tired as always! :)
Tris, Millie and Wally are the BEST! I always know Patterson is in good hands when she stays with Tris. She comes home tired from all the playing and happy from all the attention.
Prompt, reliable and truly loves dogs.

No biting allowed as I have two very sweet dogs who would not understand that. I would also make sure they are potty trained as I work during the week. I'd also like to make sure they are vaccinated. I'd prefer they are not big barkers as well, as I live in a condo until and have to think about others. I do have a kennel if they need to be kenneled and you can bring whatever you need for your dog.
A typical day
I personally walk my dog twice a day. They are not just let out in a yard because I own a condo. My dogs love couch time, walks, being fed, looking out the big picture window and eating the occasional rawhide bone. When I take one out for a walk, the other gets to play with the treat ball to keep them occupied
