About: I am currently retired from working at animal hospitals for 30 + years. I have had dogs since birth! My husband and I enjoy fostering dogs through The Bond Between in Minnetonka. I am retired and home most days and nights. I do occasionally go into the cities to visit family. I am happy to work around clients schedules. I have a fenced yard. All my foster dogs have been treated like family. I have 2 dogs of my own that love having visitors.

About: I've always loved dogs. I've spent three years working at a dog shelter as office manager, intake person which includes giving oral and injection medications, adoption coordinator, feeding and watering, cleaning, and socializing. I'm available during the week after 5:30pm. Weekends are open. I volunteer at the local dog shelter but need a little something more to fill my need to spend time with animals. I enjoy nature walks and stop as often as the dogs do to look at things. :) My schedule is flexible. When I am with dogs, it is sometimes hard to draw my attention away from them because they are so very loving and giving. I like to give that back to them.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. About 10 years ago I started watching animals for Family and Friends while they went on trips. I usually stay and watch the animals since I work from home I will be with the animals most of the time. I can also drop in and let animals out if needed. I’m very flexible. Working from home gives me that availability. I’m able to stop over and let animals out if needed as well. I can feed, walk, give meds etc. I care for the animals in their homes. I’m unable to take care of them at my house. A lot of my friends and family prefer that so the animals don’t have to change their environment.

I’m very free during the week, on weekends, and after school days. I’m willing to spend as much time with pets as needed and show them human compassion. Whether it is going on walks, getting belly rubs, or receiving treats for doing their best. I believe pets should be shown with the same love they show their humans.

I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything.

I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.
