About Melinda
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello families and furbabies. My name is Mindy and I am a natural born animal lover with experience in being a vet tech for some time. I have rescued many of my own pets and showed them how much love, kindness and gentleness they deserve. I like to think of my house as home away from home for your fur baby. I will ensure that your loved one is safe, comfortable, engaged and extremely happy as I care for them. I will provide trail walks, neighborhood walks, playtime, cuddles and snuggle time plus visits to the dog park per your permission and of course we ll end our fun-filled day with a puppachino. I have excellent references and have over 35 years of experience in caring for animals and dog and cat sitting. Please reach out to me if you think I would be a good match for you and your fur baby. I'm excited to meet you! Thank you for your time.

Mindy is absolutely wonderful! My dog, Buddy, is a sensitive senior and my constant companion, so I am incredibly selective about who looks after him. Mindy is so attentive, caring and patient with all his needs. I feel comfortable leaving him in her hands, which gives me immense peace of mind. Thank you, Mindy!
