Linda was great! She watched our dog Georgia while we were away for the long weekend. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Linda was amazing. I was stuck over the holidays, I couldn’t keep the dog where I was staying. Linda came & got her , welcomed Rin into her home & family over the holidays. It saved my vacation & Rin was much happier w Linda , than our hotel room. Highly recommend Linda .

Linda was absolutely wonderful watching Baffin. She was very accommodating and he made himself at home very quickly.

Linda was very communicative, organized and friendly. It was so nice to go away without worrying about my cat. Thanks so much!

I am retired, and get my daily joy caring for pets, and my favorite part of my day is taking pups walking in the woods.

Safety, trust & environment

Walking, playing, cuddling, feed and any meds. Animals with special needs are in good hands as I have cared for blind and deaf animals. Puppy traing is fun, and seniors are given plenty of time to meander as much as their comfort allows.

A typical day

I love taking dogs into the woods for long walks. The Trent River and Wildwood trails are favorites. Playing fetch and getting down for some serious belly rubs are great ways to bond!

Does your pup have separation anxiety or leash reactivity. One of my pups was a senior blinded by abuse, and it took time and patience to have him blossom and enjoy getting out for our walks.... learned that a shuffle provided the direction he could follow. So give me all the info, good and challenging, so that I can be as effective a caregiver as possible.
