Your dog will be kept safe and happy while away.

Pet care experience

I live in a townhouse with lots of grass to walk on and explore. I am a dog behavioral therapist and trainer, First Aid Certified, and would love to give you the assurance that your dog will be in good hands. I work with rescue groups on adoptions and give training tips to help with the transition from shelter to forever homes. Our dogs are a great source of love and companionship.

Tucker had a great time staying with Linda and Milo. I would highly recommend using linda, she is very loving with the dogs. It was also nice getting regular updates and pictures while we were away.

Star, my dog, had so much fun playing with Linda's dog, Milo. She also sent me daily reports (which you can opt out if you don't want) so I could make sure my fur baby was ok while I was away. Great sitter!

Was so good to see Marley was so comfortable when I dropped her off. Linda sent daily updates and pictures.

Linda was a great sitter for Mia over the past weekend. She was very attentive, made sure to send plenty of updates and pictures of how my dog was over the weekend and was very flexible about drop-off and pick-up times. Thank you so much for sitting Mia over the weekend Linda!
