Loving Care When You Can't Be There

I've been a dog owner my entire life, often caring for multiple dogs simultaneously. This experience has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs, and I've successfully trained all my dogs in basic obedience commands. Beyond personal pet ownership, I have pet-sitting experience, including caring for both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable with various services, from quick drop-in visits to overnight stays, and I'm prepared to handle any situation, including pet emergencies. As a trustworthy and dependable individual, you can count on me to provide responsible and loving care for your pets. My experience includes handling and walking dogs of all sizes and breeds, including pit bulls, so I'm confident in my ability to manage even the most energetic pups.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for your pet in your home, my priority is creating a comfortable and loving environment that mirrors their usual routine as closely as possible. I'll follow your specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any medications your pet requires. Beyond the basics, I believe in providing plenty of attention, whether that's through playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship. I'm happy to engage in activities your pet enjoys, such as walks, fetch, or toys. I'll also keep a close eye on their overall well-being, noting any changes in behavior or appetite, and will immediately communicate any concerns to you. Ultimately, my goal is to provide your pet with the same love and care they receive from you, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved in your absence.

Mindy was amazing with our pups. I was so impressed by her attention to detail and dedication. She was able to keep up with our potty training schedule and my dogs felt at home with her. I highly recommend her services and will definitely rebook in the future!!

THE best sitter ever! Seriously. Kind, attentive and great communicater. She sat for our 16.5 yr old doxie and we came home to a happy pup. At 16.5 he does have a couple special needs for caring and walking. She will for ever be our sitter. Without a doubt. She even left US a thank you note. She, herself, is absolutely a lovely person.

Mindy did an excellent job caring for my two black kitties while I was away. I would highly recommend Mindy’s services to others.

We are so thankful for Mindy. Rosco and Buster are getting older and they need a little extra care for feeding and meds. Mindy is patient and caring and I always feel that my buddies are in the best hands.

I can’t say enough good things about Mindy!!! She was the absolute best watching my pup when I was away in every way possible. If you’re reading this, don’t hesitate just reach out to her now! If I could keep her all to myself I would but everyone deserves to see how trustworthy and kind she is with your dog! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Hulky :)

Schedule

My work-from-home status provides me with a flexible schedule, allowing me to easily accommodate pet-sitting requests. While I can often arrange in-home visits with a couple of days' notice (pending any pre-existing commitments), booking in advance is always appreciated to ensure availability. This flexibility allows me to tailor my schedule to best meet your pet's needs.

Mindy can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
To ensure the best care for your pet, please share their daily routine, including feeding times, walk schedules, and preferred play activities. Any specific dietary needs, medical conditions, or medications are crucial to know. I also need to understand their temperament: are they shy, energetic, or anxious? Knowing their favorite toys, any triggers, and how they interact with other animals or people will help us provide a safe and comfortable environment. Finally, please inform me of any unique habits or quirks that make your pet special!
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.
