Availability
I have open availability and highly flexible hours to care for your pets. I work from home the majority of the time, but I currently have some part-time obligations outside of the home as well. I am typically home the majority of the day and am very happy to spend plenty of cuddle, play, and walk time with your pets.

About Lina Z.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a child-free apartment in the Plateau with one calm, responsible, and pet-loving roommate. I currently have no pets of my own, so your furry friends would have the space to themselves! I live close to many parks for pups to enjoy on walks (Jeanne Mance, La Fontaine, and smaller local parks). I am always attentive to my surroundings when on walks, keeping an eye out for other animals and environmental factors and accommodating the needs of reactive dogs.

Information Lina Z. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special behaviors or needs that I should be aware of, including (but not limited to) the following: - Do they have any notable behaviors (e.g. resource guarding) and/or reactivities (to people, other dogs/cats, squirrels, etc.)? - Do they have any destructive tendencies? (destroying furniture, chewing on household objects, peeing inside, digging through trash, etc.) - How do they behave when left alone (barking, whining, separation anxiety, etc.)? How long can they typically be left alone for? - Do they have any health issues?

Pet care experience
I’ve had the honor of caring for animals for most of my life. Growing up surrounded by cats and dogs from the age of 6 allowed me to develop close and loving relationships with them while also learning the ins-and-outs of pet care and how to be attuned to their needs and wants. From 4-week-old kittens to cats with chronic illnesses and hearing-impaired senior dogs, I have extensive experience with accommodating their diverse dietary needs, administering medications to sick and elderly cats and dogs, and caring for pets with anxiety and trauma. Some of my daily responsibilities included longer dog walks multiple times daily (+short potty breaks), coordinating mealtimes of up to 7 pets, and ensuring every pet in the household received high-quality cuddle and playtime. I provide a safe, comfortable, and peaceful home and personalized care for your furry friends - their happiness and well-being are my top priority! **For boarding services, I am currently only accepting cat clients! I’m still available for drop-ins and walks for dog clients.

Reviews
This was our first time leaving our cat, Nelly, with a pet sitter, and Lina exceeded all our expectations. From the start, her professionalism stood out. She asked many thoughtful questions about Nelly's routine, personality, health, and needs, which immediately showed her extensive experience and deep knowledge of animals. She was also very attentive whenever we had questions and always responded quickly. When we arrived, her home was clean, welcoming, and pet-friendly. Lina quickly made Nelly feel comfortable, and it was obvious he settled in as if he were at home. Throughout the weekend, she sent us regular photos and updates, giving us complete peace of mind. Overall, the experience was flawless. We were so impressed that we have already booked another 20-day stay with her in a few months. Thank you, Lina, for your dedication and exceptional care. What you do is truly appreciated! Luc & Joanna
Lina was really great with our cat! She kept us updated every day and sent us lots of pictures, which was really reassuring during our time away from home :)
I couldn't be happier with the service provided by Lina when I had my cat (Rosie) staying at her place for almost a week. It was the first time I had Rosie staying somewhere else when I travelled, and so, I thought she might be stressed and not adapt to a different environment. Lina made sure Rosie felt at home from the very start, by meeting me before to understand my cat's behaviour and needs and, how she could receive her in the best way possible. During my trip Lina made sure to keep me updated daily on how Rosie was doing, playing with her and giving her lots of attention. I will definitely contact Lina again🐈
Lina is awesome and you shouldn't hesitate to hire her to look after your pets. From the very first interaction she was professional, kind, conscientious, calm and thorough. I have cats that can be quite timid around new people, and Lina did everything she could to make them feel comfortable. She used her experience to find the right ways to engage with them, and after just three visits they seemed excited to play with her. Lina was also flexible and open to special instructions for the cats, which was really reassuring. She asked loads of questions before the first visit to cover every possible problem, requirement, preference and context. And her notes about the visits (and the photos) were top-notch. I felt like I was there with the cats! I'll 100% be hoping Lina is available the next time I'm out of town.
