One dog at a time by Brackett Park

Pet care experience

I said goodbye to my dog Tipper after 15 wonderful years in 2018. As a dog parent, I understand the difficulty of finding reliable dog care that provides a safe, comfortable and loving environment for vacations or overnight stays. I will provide a home-like environment for your little one that kennels and other boarding cannot. In addition I only take one dog at a time to ensure your dog gets all of the attention they deserve. I will consider up to two dogs from the same family as long as they are smaller breed. My neighborhood in south Minneapolis provides many outdoor spaces for exploring and discovery. Long walks provide plenty of opportunities to meet other pets in the neighborhood exercising both muscles and social skills that promote restful sleep. I will give your fur baby plenty of affection, lots of love and companionship while you need to be apart. As a full time receptionist with 30 plus years of experience, reliability and responsibility are my strengths. I have previous experience dog/house sitting for fellow coworkers and neighbors. I miss the unconditional love our pets give us and would love to help you.

Betsy has watched our dog several times and always goes above and beyond with her care!

Betsy was so kind and loving with Petey. She was ready to meet him when we did the meet and greet. She was very open with her plan for his care, and she was great about sending updates. I was also very impressed by how in making the arrangements, she really thought through Petey's needs ahead of time. She's truly fantastic!

Betsy did an incredible job with our dog Rossi! She sent daily updates, and we loved how she treated Rossi like family. She was extremely communicative and so understanding when we had to adjust our stay for an extra day due to a delayed flight. We would love to use Betsy again!

Betsy is absolutely amazing!!! She was extremely communicative about my dog's stay, she sent pics and eased my stress of letting me know how the stay was going with regular updates, it was my first time using Rover and I will definitely use it again! Thank you Betsy!

Information Betsy B. would like to know about your pet

I do require a meet and greet before I will book a request. I like to know your dog's schedule. What signals do they give when they need to go outside? What kind of food do they eat? Do they have any separation or anxiety issues and what can I do to best serve them when they are in my care? I am sorry but I can't accept large dogs. 40 pounds is my limit.

A typical day

I live a block from Brackett park and close to the west river parkway so there are plenty of areas to walk. I also live close to dog parks.

Important: I do work outside the home Monday through Friday so your dog will need to be ok alone when I'm at work for a full workday. I can give them two or more walks in the morning and plenty of walks after work and even more on the weekend. I also have a private fenced in backyard for games of fetch or just to be off leash.
