  • Our pets are a very important part of the family. Unfortunately, when we travel on vacation they can’t always go with us. And besides, sometimes it is not practical to have your furry friend with you while on the road. Dog kennels are great, but some dogs get upset or are prone to catching “colds” at these places. They can also be very expensive. The other alternative is to have someone stay at your house and pet-sit while you are away, which is a nice option when you have a family member or friend on reserve. So how do you go about this when you don’t have anyone to turn to for such help?

    MiNeeds offers a place where you can post your needed services and alert all the local professionals that can provide them for you. Here a customer in Wedgewood was looking for a dog sitter while her and her husband went on vacation. All she had to do was post her need, and immediately all of the professionals providing pet care services were notified and given the opportunity to submit a quote on how much they would charge to perform the services. She received four proposals, giving her a good pool to make her selection from. Plus, since she used MiNeeds she was able to decide on her own terms, her own pace, from the comfort of her own home.

    You can enjoy the ease of using MiNeeds to find the right professional for your pet services, too. See what these Seattle pet care service providers offer, or simply post your need and immediately have professionals seeking you out.

  • Dogs, like their proud owners, always like to look their best. And as owners we do whatever we can to keep our furry friends looking nice and neat, clean and smelling as good as a dog can smell. So when we want our hair cut or styled, we don’t typically rely on our own hands to do it, we go to a salon. The same rings true for our pets. You wouldn’t want to take the scissors and a comb to your pooch’s coat in the fear that you could easily mess it up, so you rely on a groomer to do the job. The only hard part is trying to decide which one you want to go to.

    So what if there was a way to make that hard part a little bit easier?

  • Pets are like children, they need to be nurtured, fed, and taken care of on a daily basis. So when you are away from home for a long period of time, whether it be for business or pleasure, you have to have someone there to take care of your lovable creatures to ensure they stay healthy for your return. Some of you are fortunate to have a good friend or relative who will look after your pets for little or no money. Those of us who do not have this luxury are forced to shell out some money for a pet sitter. And rather than picking a name out of a hat or phone book, you would like a little reassurance that the person entering your house and caring for your beloved friends are not only affordable but trustworthy as well.

    That is the situation this Tukwila customer found them self in. They decided to look for a professional pet car provider on MiNeeds, a website that brings professional service providers to customers in need of these services. The customer posted their need for a cat feeder for a week that they were out of town.

The customer received four bids, ranging from $200 to $420 for a week’s worth of cat feeding and litter box scooping. This allowed the customer to selected a price they were looking to stick to. And not only did the customer have a chance to figure price into the equation, but were also able to click on each provider’s profile to consider such information as years of experience, licenses and certificates, and a listing of staff members to get a little more comfortable with who would be in their home while they were gone.
