Dogs are my loves!
Pet care experience
Dogs are my passion! I have not met a dog I don't love! I have three of my own (long hair chihuahua that looks more like a baby hyena, mini ausie and a bichon mix) and foster when I'm needed. I treat my dogs like my kids, true pack mentality. I have car seats for them and a jogger for when they get tired on walks...yup I'm that person! Crazy dog lady! I even have them all sleep with me. Mine like to shower with me road trips galore and they love to paddle board! I take my dogs everywhere! They love to have friends over so I figured dog sitting would be fun for my boys and me! Through my experiences with Rover I'm loving being able to fulfill my dog needs and have the opportunity to care for all types and kinds and I love it! I can't have more than three but I want ALL the dogs so this keeps me from being a hoarder.
Reviews
Mindy was very knowledgeable about dogs, was very respectful of Roxie as Roxie got to know Mindy. Mindy bathed Roxie, brushed her and brought a pool over for Roxie as it was so hot while we were away! We would definitely recommend Mindy to anyone needing dog care.
Mindy treats any and all animals as her own children. I would trust Mindy with dogs for the hour, day or month. Mindy has a love for dogs especially and I refer to her as the "dog whisperer". Dogs in her care would feel like they were on vacation:)
I can attest that Mindy is an avid dog lover. She has two of her own and is currently fostering one for an animal rescue group. She is very passionate about dogs and loves to spoil them rotten ?. I groom her dogs regularly and they are very well taken care of. She takes them on walks every night. They always have bones to chew on to keep them busy and get treats when they are good. She loves on them and even shares her bed with them at night. If you're lucky enough to have Mindy to take care of your dogs you can rest assured your dog is in good hands as she will treat them as one of her own.
Mindy and I met because of our mutual love of dogs, soon after we met Mindy and I started walking our dogs together almost every day. After being around Mindy and her dogs I would recommend her over anyone else to care for my dogs. She is very observant and patient working with the animals. She is the first to notice any changes in their behavior or mood. She seems to always sense when a dog is tired about five minutes before they actually start showing the signs of being wore out. She also will notice the little details about the dog’s behavior and if they are acting slightly different that day compared to others. She will try to find out the cause of the different behavior. Mindy is one of the kindest and caring people I’ve ever met. She will care for your pet, with all the care and patience that it needs. I’ve never seen her cause any harm to an animal. She once told me a story about how she was a horrible dog owner, because she picked up her little dog by the scruff when it got in a fight, and was concerned on how she had hurt him. I know that Mindy will always treat your animal with the same care as that. Mindy also will do her best to keep your dog out of harm’s way so it will return you safely. I have seen her get in between a hissing snake and a dog to make sure the dog would be fine. I can honestly say I don’t know if I would even do that for my own dog. Leaving your dog in Mindy’s care would be a great thing since she is so kind, patient, and caring towards animals.

I have fostered over 30 dogs and feel I'm equiped to read dogs well and foresee any issues while with an animal. I'm used to watching my fosters and noticing their needs and helping them recover fully and get adopted. Of course all dogs come with their own story and needs. I am very good at reading their body language and figuring out what they may need to feel comfortable and relaxed.
Information Mindy D. would like to know about your pet
Does the dog have any issues or ticks I need to know about? What is the dog afraid of? What does the dog enjoy doing most? Treats? Or is the dog on a special diet? Is the dog caught up on shots? Is the dog prone to getting heat exhaustion? Is the dog human or animal aggressive?
A typical day
I take my dogs on hikes, to the river, paddle boarding with life jackets of course and to the dog park. I would love the oppyto get to know you and your pup and take them on adventures too.
