Pet care experience

Reliable and experienced petsitter

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.

Lina was wonderful -- prompt, communicative, and precise in her questions about my cat's routines and preferences. Each day I got a full update that left me at ease. I couldn't ask for a better catsitter

Lina was fantastic! My timid cat instantly loved her, and Lina was so attentive with her medication and care routine. She sent frequent photo updates and communicated brilliantly throughout the booking. I had complete peace of mind and will definitely be using her services again!

Lina was fantastic! We appreciated her through reports from each visit. She was so patient and kind with our cats, giving both of them the space and attention they desired. She was extra attentive to the environment and ensured the litter was clean, the space was comfortable, and the cats had extra water as needed. On top of all this, Lina is so sweet and smart! Don’t pass up the chance to have her sit for you.

It was such a positive experience with Lina! I knew my cat was in great hands right from the start as Lina asked lots of questions to make sure she would meet my cat’s needs. A very attentive and patient sitter, she made my hesitant and shy cat feel at ease in no time! Her frequent updates and pictures were very much appreciated. Thank you for taking care of my Nana as if she was your own!

Schedule

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.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a child-free apartment in the Plateau with 3 calm, responsible, and pet-loving young professionals. 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.

A typical day

We can explore new enrichment activities, go for neighborhood walks, play games, play with their favorite toys, have cuddle time, and do brushing and grooming :)

Cats
Takes only 1 client at a time
Lina can host up to 1 pet per night
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/pooping outside the litterbox, 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?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 cat, including a booking fee of 11%.
