Mindy's Doggy Daycare
Pet care experience
"Dogs are my favorite people" I live in a medium sized home ,completely fenced yard even my escape artist husky can't get out.The fence has vinyl poultry netting around it for small dog safety. I am easy going and this is a very dog oriented home.My adult son helps with walking and playing. I am home most of the time unless helping out my mom and occasional outings.I have one regular doggy client everyday during thr school year and a few fogs nearby while their parents go on trips.I like to do a one- two hour intro.before dogs are left with me to make sure they feel comfortable.I do photo text updates while dog(s) are in my care Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life.my first dog was a Scottish terrier named Bonny.Evolved from there. My dog Chiquita was my soul mate .a combo Boston terrier and dachshund.independent ,smart , adorable .Died when she was 16,2011 still grieving.Charlie dachshund Chihuahua mix, feisty funny adopted when he was 5 , He died in 2012''''heartbroken.Adopted my Kita in 2012,she was one. I take care of my sister's husky, Lina...she is six...very fluffy and cuddly...not as chatty as Kita.Very good girl. About my yard I have a large yard in a very dog-friendly neighborhood.Completely fenced 7 ft high, cast iron.reinforced 3 ft.high.around entire yard with heavy poultry vinyl fencing,for small dogs and safety issues..front enters right into house with no stairs..accessible for all dogs, open except at night.huge ficus trees around property very shady and usually cool. Totally dog oriented yard and house. My experience administering medication Completely comfortable. I have administered many types of meds...from vitamins to Prozac. No problem.

I have asked Mindy to take care of my dog for 6nights. I have got him back today and he was acting funny. Mindy already mentioned that he suffers itchiness and there are red spots on his body during my vacation. When I saw him, he was acting funny and crying. I took a look at home (when I got him was at midnight, so i couldn't see him), his whole body was in red and saw a lot of fleas. I just gave him fleas medicine and it never happened before. His eyes are red. I believe he was not able to sleep for few days due to the itchiness. I had to shampoo him twice to take all of the fleas. I saw 35-40 of them came out from his body... Mindy said that my dog was at house most of the time. I believe there are fleas in her house everywhere.My dog suffers the severe itchiness, redness scabs from the scratching for a week. I do not recommend her to take care of your dogs.
Mindy is an awesome sitter. She truly loves dogs and is so caring. Our doxie was cut really badly on her head a couple of days before our weeklong trip and we were worried about scrambling to find someone to care for her stitches, provide medication, etc. Not only did Mindy willinglly take on that care, but when the wound became infected, she took our dog twice a day to our vet to have the wound flushed and cleaned. Mindy was instrumental in not only saving our vacation, but also making our dog feel as comfortable as possible in our absence. Mindy is definitely our go-to sitter and we highly recommend her!
Pretty sure our puppies had fun. They were exhausted when we got them. Thanks for taking care of them Mindy and Kieran. It was our first time using it but so far good experience.
Mindy took such good care of our Holly while we were on our family vacation. We really enjoyed ourselves knowing that Holly was in such good hands!
