Pet care experience

Providing loving care to your pets

Hello to all! I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10-years-old. Growing up, my family had 3 dogs and 3 cats, all raised from since they were puppies and kittens. I would also help my friends and family out by taking care of their pets while they were out of town. Currently, I have a 10-year-old Australian Shepherd, a 10-year-old orange Tabby, and a 4-year-old Domestic Short-haired cat. I am comfortable staying on site at your home or just popping in during the day for some dog walking or a potty break. Additionally, I am experienced with dogs that have been diagnosed with Diabetes and the care (medications, shots, etc.) that it entails. I can also take care of your small animals as well, such as rabbits, gerbils, guinea pigs, rats, hedgehogs, etc. One requirement I have is to meet you and your fur babies a week prior to care. This is to make sure that your pet is comfortable with me, particularly if I am to house sit while you are out of town. This will also allow for you to let me know feeding schedules, special needs, and just the overall routine of your pet and household, as everyone is different in how they care for their pets. I am experienced in caring for diabetic dogs, and am comfortable giving insulin shots and providing the strict food requirements. I am also experienced in caring for puppies and kittens.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Obviously, I will stay the night at your residence, which is very beneficial to the comfort of your pet, as they will be more comfortable in an environment that they are familiar. I will make sure they are fed, given the medications they need if needed, and, of course, given the love and attention they deserve and need. I can also provide short walks around the neighborhood or make sure they get some good exercise with play in the backyard to get that positive stimulation.

Mindy always takes such great care of Barkley. It is so nice to not have to worry about him while we are away because we know he is being well cared for.

Mindy helped us out over the holiday and took care of our babies, we’re grateful for her and keeping an eye on them in the bad weather we had too! Our house looked great when we got home and the dogs were happy.

Mindy has done a great job caring for Shyera and Ekko. The pups and the house look great when I return.

Schedule

My husband and I moved to Twin Falls in April 2023 because he accepted a job as a microbiologist for Glanbia. I will be starting a new job as a Clinical Specialist working with disabled individuals. My schedule is primarily 8:00am-5:00pm, with the occasional on-call situations outside of hours. Rest assured, though, I will be staying with your pet overnight, as well as full-time on the weekends. I will also be checking up on them during my lunch breaks, as required. Please make sure you and your pets are good with my work schedule prior to booking. Additionally, as this has come up a couple of times recently, please pay attention to the rates of service on the profile page. Make sure to click on the "See Additional Services and Rates" to see any additional rates to consider before requesting a booking, especially if you have multiple pets as each additional pet is an additional fee per night. I just do not want anyone to be blindsided by additional rates, as Rover only highlights the standard rate per night on the main profile page.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Mindy can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, such as medical needs or food restrictions. For instance, I grew up with a dog that had diabetes and needed to be given shots twice a day and had special food. Also, let me know if there are any physical restrictions, or if your pet does not like certain things or actions. Remember, I want your pet to be comfortable, relax, and have fun, and as such, I want to cater each experience to what they need.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
