Providing loving care to your pets
Pet care experience
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 9-year-old Australian Shepherd, an 8-year-old orange Tabby, and a 2-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.
Reviews
We absolutely love having Mindy watch our pets! She does such an amazing job, she’s attentive, very easy to communicate with, and super reliable. We never worry when our pets are with her, even when we’re thousands of miles away for extended periods of time. Highly, highly recommend her!
Mindy did an excellent job of taking care of our two busy dogs while we were away. I appreciated the communication and pictures she sent. Based on our experience, I would definitely recommend her for house sitting.
Mindy was such a great sitter! She always responded quickly and my girls loved her. I will definitely be asking Mindy to sit for me again!
Mindy was great! We left out of state for 5 days and not once did I worry about our fur babes. She was very prompt and responsive, she also was great about keeping us updated.

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.
Information Mindy L. would like to know about your pet
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.
A typical day
I will provide all the love and cuddles your pet deserves. My dog, Harley, would subjectively say I give the best tummy rubs. We will go into the back yard for a game of chase or fetch, or go for a run around the neighborhood. I can also bring some toys for both dogs and cats, if so desired.

My husband and I moved to Twin Falls in April 2023 because he accepted a job as a microbiologist for Glanbia. I have taken a service position with Ampact/AmeriCorps as a reading tutor for K-3rd Grade at one of the local elementary schools. During the day, I will be tutoring at the school from 8:00am-3:30pm. Additionally, I have personal training at the gym Monday-Thursday from 4:00pm-5:00pm. Rest assured, though, I will be staying with your pet overnight, as well as full-time on the weekends. Please make sure you and your pets are good with my work schedule and being alone during the weekdays from 8:00am-5:00pm. 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.
