Daycare for your playful pup

Pet care experience

I've been a Rover sitter for many years, took a break, and am now back offering daycare for smaller, playful dogs. I take only one or two dogs at a time to keep the playgroup small and allow me to focus on your dog. Dogs will play indoors with outdoor leashed walks and potty breaks, in order to ensure your dog's security and safety. Your dog will have a lively playmate in my dog Gus. As a Rover sitter, I received over a hundred only 5-star reviews and will take the best care of your dog. I am home all day and will never leave the dogs unattended. I can only accept dogs who do not mark or have house accidents. Dogs who will do best here will be smaller, playful, social dogs. Gus likes to play and he can be kind of annoying if your dog is sedate. We will also take lots of beach and forest walks, all on leash of course. I have two cats who are great with dogs, but your dog must be respectful of them and not harass them. Dogs are welcome to relax on all the sofas and chairs. My home is also air-conditioned. I do require a meet-and-greet to ensure we're a good fit for your pup. - be solidly housetrained - not have destructive chewing habits - have no marking behavior or history - have no submissive or excitement urination issues - get along with cats - get along with other dogs - be on a flea-prevention program - be up-to-date on vaccinations - not be a constant barker (out of respect for the neighbors)

Linda was great. My dog felt right at home from the first moment in her warm & friendly home. She was also very accomodating to my dog recovering from a long air freight taking extra care with food etc. Top notch. Can highly recommend😀 /Nic

Linda is very sweet. There was a big snow during that time, so she let our cat stay at her house. She prepared a nice bedroom just for our cat. She took care of our cat really well and sent updates all the time. Would definately recommend her to anyone who wants to find a pet helper.

I don’t know what I would do without Linda. She is absolutely amazing. I feel so comfortable and at ease when she is watching over our kitties. I have two cats both almost 12 years old, they are my babies!! She leaves me very detailed messages after each feeding and goes above and beyond each time! You will not regret having Linda watch over your fur baby’s, she truly is a gem!!

My property is not fully fenced, so dogs will be leashed when outside for walks and potty breaks. Dogs have run of the house inside so they must be fully housebroken.

Information Linda C. would like to know about your pet

I require a meet-and-greet before I accept daycare requests to ensure that my home is a good fit for your pup. I assess how your dog gets on with my playful dog Gus. They must also be rock-solidly housebroken with no marking behaviors. Otherwise, my little fur guy will frantically mark all over my house! I also require that your dog be up-to-date on vaccinations and on a flea-prevention program. I am happy to administer any medications your dog requires.

A typical day

Gus and I like to be active, so dogs will have lots of play time and walks. We also enjoy snuggle time of the sofa in between play sessions.
