Highlights
Pet care experience
Here for pets of all personalities!
Caring for pets has been a part of my life for a long time, through both pets of our own and foster pets! We’ve been fostering for the past decade and have cared for over 30 dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs with all kinds of personalities, including shy, anxious, and reactive. My favorite thing about animals is they all have their own personalities, and I love learning about who they are! My approach is to meet pets where they’re at and let them set the pace for our interactions, especially those who need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. Senior dogs have an especially big place in my heart, as we have two of our own, and I’m very comfortable with the extra patience and care older pups sometimes need. I’ve also fostered and spent time with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, including bully breeds which are always welcome!

Safety, trust & environment
I will treat your home as a guest in it; I’m tidy and will clean up after me and your pets! What is helpful for me to know is what your pet’s typical day looks like, if they have any favorite or important parts to their routine, and ways they like to get stimulation (walk, play, puzzles). Where do they sleep? As much information as you can tell me about your pet is better so I can keep things as normal for them as possible!
Ratings and reviews
Beth was fantastic watching our dog Jax in our home for a week while we were out of town. She sent a lot of updates and pictures and made us comfortable while we were away.
We will certainly use Beth again to watch our lil Bailey. Beth was great at communicating daily and sending updates and photos We felt 100% confident and comfortable with Beth caring for our lil guy and our home while we were away for a bit over a week. Beth has a very calm and confident energy and our lil guy warmed up to her right away. We could see that Beth has a natural love and care for animals !!!. We are the pet parents that have a hard time leaving our lil guy as I am sure most people do..and we have pretty high standards ha. We recommended Beth 100% and will be reaching out again. Thank you again Beth!!!
Beth will be staying and watching our Bailey boy for a week.. we did a meet and greet and a walk scheduled so far and we are very impressed with Beth. Her communication has been amazing and she has been on time and has been very attentive to our little guy. Like most who use rover services.. our animals are our best friends and mean so much to us.. so far we are very comfortable with leaving Bailey with him and we are lucky that we found her!
Beth was very dependable - she arrived on time and followed the info I provided about my dog’s care. She also sent me updates on how my dog was doing with his walks, bedtime, and what he ate. I appreciated Beth’s clear communication!
Beth is an animal lover through and through. In addition to caring for her own pets, she has been a dedicated foster of cats and dogs for many years. She has cared for animals with a variety of medical and behavioral needs, and she really puts in the time and effort to gain their trust and understand their needs. Beth has looked after my dog many times, and I always know that he’s getting walks, stimulation, and lots of snuggles. Beth will love your animals just like her own, and that’s a huge comfort to any pet parent.
I've known Beth since we went to undergrad together over 15 years ago. Our shared love for animals is among the many reasons we remain close friends. In addition to providing exceptional care to her own pets, Beth dedicates much of her free time to volunteering as a dog walker with Minneapolis Animal Care and Control and fostering for local rescues. This experience makes her confident when meeting new animals and competent to care for those with more complex behavior or medical needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll with plenty of stops and sniffs along the way, or a quick jog to burn off some puppy energy, she'll ensure your pet gets the most out of their time together. Beth is the friendly and reliable person you want looking after your pet while you're away.

Schedule
I work a hybrid schedule, and will spend most of my day with your pet. When I leave, it will generally be no longer than about 4 hours at a time, whether for work or to see my own pets and family. If I expect I’ll need to be gone longer than this at any point during the stay, I’ll let you know before booking!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsDogs over 1 year oldBeth can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- What is their daily routine? What commands do they know? What are their exercise needs and how often do they need potty breaks? If you have more than one pet, how do they interact with each other? Any quirks your pet has I should know about? I prefer to do meet and greets to meet your pet(s) in advance before we confirm so we can go through your pet’s needs and they can meet me!
