“Lisa is a gem. She made herself available with short notice and was kind and patient with me as a new puppy parent to the rover app. Most importantly I was able to enjoy a day off without feeling guilty and worrying about leaving my puppy’s home for an extended time.”
About: I've had dogs and cats since I was born. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to take care of their animals. It makes me happy making other animals happy! I work full time, but can attend to any animal after 530p.m. On weekends, I am available for anytime, or an as needed basis for clients. My dog isn't crated. I'm willing to crate if the client prefers while they're alone in the house. I do have a fence in my backyard.
About: Since I was little I've always had no issue pet sitting. I tend to be on time for appointments. Currently I am an animator who graduated from the University of the Arts who also works as a teacher. I am free for large portions of each day of the week. Which we can discuss later. I currently live in a house which is quite spacious for the care of any pet for several hours or even several days as I offer boarding service. Looking forward to meeting many clients and their pets over the next few weeks. ^^ I always make time for pets in my schedule. They get the proper care and attention so that their stay is as comfortable as possible. I have a fenced yard for outside play, and I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood that’s ideal for walks and play time.

“Lynn was amazing. She came for a “meet and greet” well in advance. At the meeting I was impressed by her level of experience and passion for dogs. I booked three walks because i was going away for the night and my dog is used to walking three times a day. She was extremely communicative and gave great updates. It was even raining the whole night and she did her best to walk my dog and keep him as comfortable as possible. My dog hates the rain. Lynn is an amazing dog sitter/walker on this app. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.”

I am so grateful to have found Lex! She is incredibly reliable, friendly, and has such a great connection with my pup, Sadie: I can always count on her to show up on time and ensure my dog is well-cared for during her walk. It’s clear that Lex loves animals and treats Sadie like she is her own. I love receiving updates and cute photos of my pup when I’m at work. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands. I highly recommend Lex to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Five stars all the way!!
