I'll care for your pup as my own!

Pet care experience

Hi there, And thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I'm in London for the third year now, and missing my furry best friend back home. I can only visit him a couple of times a year, and could really use a dog friend every once in a while. I've got tons of experience in taking care of dogs (and other animals), there's been a pupper in the family since I was born. I've also cared for bunnies, other small rodents and cats, as well as horses. I'm able to care for and walk dogs of all sizes, from tiny ones to giants. More than one dog at once is okay too. Although I do expect especially the larger dogs to be trained to a certain extent where they're relatively calm on walks and don't pull too much. I'm okay to do short and long walks, whatever your pet is used to, and assure to you their safety and well-being is being put first with me at all times. I cater to your pets needs, so I will be providing exactly the type of care they're used to. The goal here is to make your dog feel at home and that there's not too much difference to a regular day even though there's someone else to walk them and give them cuddles. The best times to catch me are currently in the weekends, that's when my schedule is more free, and I can be available any time of the day for walks or home visits (even overnight). I'm currently in the middle of my final year of studies for a Bachelor's degree in Music, and it can get quite hectic at times. That's why during the week I prefer to do mostly evenings (please feel free to enquire about any weekday though, my uni schedule changes weekly). I can't wait to look after your pup! x

Linda came to visit one Christmas. She was my son's girlfriend at the time. When she stayed ,, our 2 dog's just loved her. Tess ( a Black 10yr old Labrador, 9yr then. ) And Cookie( a 5yr old Lakeland terrier 4yrs then)both loved Linda. I think Tess reminded her more of her dog in Finland. But Linda would ask if she could take the dogs out for a walk, Yes , yes I would say as they don't get as much exercise as they used to since I had my stroke. Except when my daughter is off school and husbands not working. So of Linda would go for a couple of hrs at a time. The dogs would come back happy still wagging there tails after there fun and frolicks they had sometimes come back muddy if Linda had had them near the river or in the open fields but they had a brilliant time. They would have a drink. A bit of a treat tthen they would go and lie in front of the fire in the living room to get all warmed up, until Linda would walk in sit down and which ever one was still awake would go over and cuddle into Linda, in fact when Linda and my son went back to London both our dogs,were mopping about for about a month. I was lost on what to do, at least Cookie could go to work with my husband. But poor old Tess.. I had to keep taking her out into the garden and waking about on my crunches for as long as I could. So if I was asked if I would recommend Linda as a dog walker, I would have no hesitation in recommending her too anyone. Just that your dog will instantly fall in love with her. Linda is kind , trustworthy,honest, and.above all loves animals, but dog's Linda adores and they instantly like her. So yes I recommend Linda without a doubt. Yours truly Mrs D.M. Kincaid

Linda is a wonderful young woman, with a genuine love for dogs, She would be a great dog sitter and would do everything she could to make sure whoever’s dog she is taking care of would feel relaxed and comfortable while she is taking care of them.

Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Information Linda A. would like to know about your pet

I personally don't mind what breed your dog is, all of them are cute. What I consider more important is: -Is there any special things about the dogs character I should know of -Level of training; will the dog listen to simple commands -If they get along with other dogs -If there's any allergies or medical conditions I should know of (although I'm sure as an owner you would naturally inform of any dietary requirements and medication) -Your pups favourite games and activities!

A typical day

As I will be mainly operating on NW2 and NW6 areas, the nice places to go with a dog that I know of in the area are Gladstone Park, Kilburn Grange Park and Primrose Hill. If your dog gets along with others well, the parks are ideal for making new friends.
