Pet care experience
I've had dogs and cats all of my life. I have three dogs: Daisy, a 2-year-old lab/pit mix, Coco, a 13-year-old choc lab, and Terra, a 14-yearwork full-time at The City Hot Springs Animal Services.-old border collie (Coco and Terra are on twice daily medications). They are all rescues, spayed, and microchipped, and all three sleep with me. I work for The City of Hot Springs Animal Services (M/F 8-5). I'm on the board of LeeAnn's Rescue. I worked as an animal handler at the Pasadena Humane Society in CA. I care for my friends and neighbors' animals (including goats and chickens) while they are away. I am easily able to give medications when needed. I always ensure they have food and clean water, are safe and comfortable, and get lots of love and attention. I'm available seven days a week and on short notice. Need to leave for an emergency? No problem. I've got your kid(s) taken care of as if they are my own.

Reviews
If you want piece of mind that your furbabies are being taken care of and loved, contact Linda. She was always punctual, stayed in contact with me and consistently sent pictures. Linda is easy to talk to and listens to the pet owners. I will definitely ask for her help in the future.
Outstanding. Thank you for taking such good care of the fur kids.
We love Ms Linda!!
Outstanding. Linda does an awesome job taking care of the fur kids.

Safety, trust & environment
I keep my dogs safe with the PetSafe wireless fence. This allows me to control the distance from the house they can go and has worked well for 19 years. They have a dog door to use at will. If your yard is not fenced, I will take them outside on a leash to do their business. They will be fed according to their normal schedule, have clean water, and be safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away.
Information Linda B. would like to know about your pet
Please, let me know everything about your pet so I can make them as comfortable and happy as possible. Temperament (shy/timid, separation anxiety, loves everyone, exuberant, food/toy aggression). Feeding schedule (is their food bowl kept full, or do they eat at specific times). Potty schedule (doggy door, puppy pads, how often they need to be let outside). Medications (type/frequency). Dietary restrictions, general likes and dislikes. Favorite toys and treats.
A typical day
Let me know what your pet loves to do, and I'll do it. I have one who loves to watch TV. She bounces around and barks based on what's showing on the TV. Some want to sit quietly and be loved on. I'll play fetch, even if I end up fetching more than the animal. I text photos of your pets and our activities.

Availability
I work full-time for The City of Hot Springs Animals Services (Mon-Fri 8-5). Weekday drop-in visits are available after 5 pm, weekend drop-in visits are flexible. As a house-sitter, I will give your pet(s) plenty of time and attention. I will reduce the daily rate if you don't require me to stay in your home overnight. I will provide the same time and care they receive from you (you work, go shopping, do activities, etc where your pet is left alone). I will gather your mail and packages and put your trash out on collection day.
