Three years ago, we traveled from Oregon to California so I could take my 79-year-old mom to the Jelly Belly Factory. I was so nervous because I had never used Rover before, and I had never left Roshi with anyone other than family. He’s lived a very sheltered life, so trusting someone new with him was a big step for me. That’s when we met Linda. She was so kind, patient, and reassuring that she immediately put my mind at ease. Roshi came home healthy, happy, and relaxed, and I knew I had found someone truly special. When another last-minute California trip came up, there was no question who I wanted to call. I was so relieved that Linda was available again. I do want to mention that I was the one running late for drop-off. Being punctual is important to me, and Linda couldn’t have been more gracious and understanding. I only wish Linda lived in Oregon because she would be Roshi’s regular sitter. Since she doesn’t, we’ll happily book with her every time we’re in California. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely loves the dogs she cares for, I can’t recommend Linda highly enough.
