Mother and Son Dog Care Team
Pet care experience
I'm a single mother to a 6 year old boy & we absolutely love having dogs in home woth us! We currently have no dogs of our own, since losing our pitbull in 2018. Losing her was difficult, as she was with us through the most trying times- after my son's father passed away suddenly. She helped care for us, & I'm looking for some furry little loves to share our home and time with to help fill her absence, as well as those fur parents who need loving sitters! I'm currently working part-time, and would love to have a couple fur babies to spend time with at home with my son in our down time. We are home literally every night, and I have a flexible schedule. I have one older kitty who lives in my room. He's completely closed off from all dogs and has never had any altercations, as his presence typically goes undetected. We have many dogs who are our regulars, who are not cat friendly & have never seen him, as we keep my bedroom door closed. He also sleeps behind closed closet doors every night, so the there is no night mischief. We try to take two walks a day when dogs are with us, weather permitting! We live in a townhouse that has a fenced back yard that we share with two other rentals; we're a triplex. There is only one other dog in the community that is dog/human/kid friendly, although my neighbors and I typically peek out before letting the dogs loose so they have the yard to themselves. My back yard faces an open field on the edge of town, providing an incredibly safe, tucked away, and quiet neighborhood. My son is a loving child who displays love and sympathy for dogs. He loves to help play, feed, give treats, and help walk them when the dog & him are appropriately matched. We've been operating for 3 years now and take care of homes, bunnies, chickens, dogs, goats, cats, and are willing to help with other house sitting duties such as picking up packages, mail, and watering gardens & plants. Thanks for considering us! *Please be aware of personal cancelation policy. If you do not confirm the booking on Rover due to more time needed, but you have been placed in my calendar awaiting confirmation, you will recieve a cancelation fee request, as other dogs could have been booked in your place. If you realize your confirmation has expired, write me to cancel or rebook. Thank you.*
Reviews
It certainly appeared that our precious fur baby was very well cared for by Mindy. We received daily photos of smiling faces that we truly appreciated. When we picked up our dog, we were greeted by a happy, healthy animal who missed us. We will definitely call upon Mindy in the future.
As a dog mom I was anxious about leaving my baby for the first time with someone I didn't know for a while and Mindy was amazing. She cared for my baby so well and when I picked him up he was so happy and I could tell that he had a great day with her and her son. She sent me pictures and videos of him throughout the day which helped me to remain calm I know that he was having a good day and she was keeping me updated on his day throughout the day. Which was so awesome to have that giving me more peace of mind. I would totally recommend Mindy to anybody that needs their fur baby to be watched over.
This worked out really great with Mindy! She sent a lot of pictures and was really accommodating to my two dogs. She even helped out after one of them got scared by giving him a weighted blanket. She was excellent and I highly recommend!
Mindy was amazing! We needed a last minute sitter for a few hours to attend a funeral and weren’t from the area. Mindy was very responsive and took excellent care of our French bulldog, Zorro! She had multiple other dogs that day and managed all of them with excellence so all could enjoy the day with multiple dog personalities. Highly recommend!

We'd like to know dietary restrictions, and if you prefer whether the have human food treats,& are allowed on furniture! We allow them up, but we follow all owners rules so your dog comes home as sweet as before!

My schedule is flexible and I'm around a lot. I walk with the dogs alone a lot to get out, & then usually once more after I pick my son up from school.
