Linda, Dog-Whisperer Extraordinaire

Pet care experience

As a pet sitter, I can guarantee the critters you love dearly will feel less lonesome in your home while you are away. I love going outside for that breath of fresh air and burst of energy just about as much as dogs so, you can rest easy knowing they will have fun on their long (weather permitting!) and fulfilling walks. I am a loving person and have always gotten along extremely well with animals. I easily understand our four-legged friends and the owner/pet relationship. I will treat your pets with true care ensuring each of their needs are met. Mainly, I want to help keep your pets happy and content while you are away so when you return it's as if you'd been there all along! :)

I’m so glad I found this app. And Linda was AWESOME! I’ve avoided extended travel in the past, but not anymore. I will definitely be asking Linda to take care of my two cats in the future.

Linda is trustworthy and responsible. She cared for my pets in my home while I was away for almost 3 weeks. I came home to a clean house, and my pets were well cared for. I would definitely recommend her.

Highly recommend Linda. She took care of my 10 week old puppy for a full day, sent lots of pictures, provided updates - plan to reach out again!

Safety, trust & environment

For /extremely/ special circumstances, i may be able to offer pet care in my home. please keep in mind, there are three large dogs here and one tiny alpha. they are all friendly (eventually) the big guys are less socialized than your dog so, meet n greets are a must and they will be high energy. from there forward, all interactions will always be diligently supervised to ensure everyone is safe. For pet care in your home, I will make sure to learn and offer the same love and attention you give. Basically, i’m going to do whatever it takes to help your dog feel secure! 🖤

Information Linda A. would like to know about your pet

Is there anything your pet is unable to do? Does your pet have any aggressive behaviors? How does your pet behave away from you and with a stranger/new person? No breed preference.

A typical day

If there is a trail nearby, I will most definitely find my way to it. same goes for parks, fields….you catch my drift (your pups will, of course, be checked over and cleaned up from any after effects). I love playing fetch and tug of war, with skills to match your pet's, thank you v much. I also love playing tag and if your dog likes to run, I am right there next to them. I'm always up for a sit, paw, down, roll-over but only if your dog enjoys such activities.
