Pet care experience

Hi Everyone! My name is Lina. I relocated to Lillington from another state about two years ago and now I live in a country home on beautiful 0.7 acres. For three years I have been a veterinarian Assistant and have had a big passion for animals since I was a child, including a variety of pets since I was young. I currently own two small dogs (Sonic & Vlada) and a cat( Evie). They are very friendly and enjoy meeting other friendly four-legged friends. As a Vet Assistant I have developed a variety of important skills working with animals. It has been a rewarding career, but I am switching to my own business as a pet sitter and boarder at my wonderful home. I understand some pets are anxious going to new places, so I can also provide service at your home to keep them comfortable. In addition to pet sitting and boarding, I perform basic nail trims if pet tolerates it, bathing and grooming (though not a professional groomer), medicating (including IV fluids), anal glands (requires another person to hold the pet) and injections if needed. If your pet comes to my home, I cannot accommodate aggressive dogs since I have my personal dogs at home, and a cat. I will only accept small to medium size dogs that are well behaved, as well as crate trained and potty trained (unless it’s a puppy). Spayed/neutered pets are preferred. They must be vaccinated for Rabies, DAPP and Bordetella, while proof will be required for protection of my pets. If I come to your place, I am happy to watch small to large breed dogs, as long as they are nice and not aggressive in any way. They do not have to be crate trained but that would be a plus. Your pet must be vaccinated for Rabies; other vaccines are optional. I also offer pet sitting for kitties but only at their home to ensure their comfort level. Before I pet sit your fur baby, I require an initial meet and greet time. It will help me to learn more about you and your pet to make sure we are a good match for each other. I treat all animals like they are my own. I will probably spoil them and overload them with lots of love. I want to make sure your pet has a great experience and is well taken care of. I also offer updates on your pet while you are away to let you know how everything is going. Areas I service are: Lillington, Erwin, Angier, Dunn, Willow Springs, Benson, Fuquay Varina Sanford and Linden.

Lina is an excellent sitter for my Australian Cattle Dog, Rodeo. Lina is very kind, trustworthy, patient,responsible, reliable, and professional. She goes out of her way, caring for Rodeo as if she is a dog of her own. Lina sends photos and videos of Rodeo throughout the day, so I feel more comfortable being away from her. Lina is very flexible working around my schedule when I need her. I am so grateful for having pure confidence in Lina, knowing she provides the best care possible for my dog. I will never call another pet sitter to watch my dog!

I have had the privilege of knowing Lina for the past 10 years. During this time, she has administered a variety of care for my pets. It’s no surprise that I have been very pleased because she has been trustworthy, reliable, very accommodating, and technically competent with my dog and cat. Lina is also a veterinarian technician with a 3-year history, which gives her a lot of technical and practical experience. She is a current owner of 2 dogs and a cat, which gives her daily experience in animal care. I’ll conclude by saying that Lina’s sense of professionalism and work ethic is first-class. Combined with her being extremely dependable and patient with pets’ and owners’ needs makes her an elite care professional. You will be sure and safe with Lina caring for your valued pets.

Lina is an amazing pet sitter. She’s well rounded and experienced for many years in animal care. She was my neighbor and she was my pet sitter for several years for my dog and cat. She did a great job and is kindhearted, responsible, and understands pets a lot…and loves them! I would recommend Lina for your company hands down.

Hello Rover and thank you for your request. I have known Lina for 12 years. She had a pet sitting/care business for a few years and was very successful at it. She has also been a veterinarian technician for 6 years and is extremely knowledgeable about animal care and compassion to both pets and owners. Since I’ve known Lina, she has had a love for animals at large, even owning several of her own. Her life is devoted to animal care and expertise in the field. I give my highest recommendations to Lina for your organization and the clients it services. Best regards, Tim Gnazale

Safety, trust & environment

If your pet stays at my place I have a fenced yard and two sweet little pups to keep your fur baby company. I will crate your pet if I step away for a little bit to make sure your pet stays safe. I can provide a small pet crate for little dogs, but for medium to larger dogs you must bring a pet crate in case of unforeseen behavior. If I stay at your home, I am flexible & I am happy to do their usual routine to keep them more comfortable.

Information Lina T. would like to know about your pet

What is their daily routine, where they sleep, what to feed them and when. Do they have a schedule to go potty or have special needs? is your pet friendly and good with other pets? What medications they are on and instructions. What is their current health status and how do they react when you are away? Also feel free to discuss anything that is important about your cherished pet(s) to ensure their safety and comfort.

A typical day

If your pet is staying at my place I will play with your fur baby (play fetch, pool time and other fun activities they enjoy doing) If I am staying at your place and you have a yard I am happy to do any fun activities they like doing when they are with you, go on walks or go to nearest park.

I currently still work for a Clinic full time and I really would like to make a switch to work more from home instead. I am very excited and eager to transition to Pet sitting business and walking. My current schedule varies every week, but I am always available on Sundays, and every other Saturday I am also available, I also have days during the week that can be open. If you are interested I would be happy to go over some days I am available. I do ask if you can please give me 1-2 weeks notice for pet/ house sitting and for walking I do need couple days notice or at least one day in advance.
