I am a retired nurse, so I have lots of time to spend and care for your sweet little Fur babies no matter what kind, and honestly would love every minute of it. That's when I am the happiest. *Overnight Stay Notes: •I may have regular drop-in/walk clients scheduled and my mom to check on, so during overnight stays I may be away for 2-3 hours at a time. Thank you for your understanding.🙏

Linda is great with our pets and always does so much to help us out when we’re out of town. She sends photos of our pets and does a great job communicating with us. We’ve never had as good of a pet sitter as Linda! We’d recommend her to everyone. Thank you, Linda for all of your help.

Linda is incredible! This was our first experience using Rover and having Linda stay at our house to watch our three dogs for a week. Linda is kind and responsible. I felt at ease after meeting her. She communicated and sent pictures daily. We came home to a very clean home and three happy puppies. Linda went above and beyond what we expected. This was 100% better than boarding. I feel like Linda is part of our family and will definitely be a return customer.

Linda was an absolute delight! She took wonderful care of our dogs and cats while we were away, and I had complete peace of mind the entire time. She sent daily updates and pictures, which we greatly appreciated, especially while traveling internationally. Our pets were clearly well loved and well cared for, and we came home to a clean, tidy house. Linda was very communicative, reliable, and professional throughout the entire stay. I would trust her to watch our pets anytime and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
