Let Me Love Your Fur Babies

I am new to Rover - Reach out for a Meet & Greet! I've recently had to say good-bye to my dog, Coconut who you will see some of my pictures. I miss him so much and can't wait to have some other dogs to love on! I have a genuine love for pets and animals of all kinds and can't imagine life without them. I provide personalized, one-on-one care for each pet, ensuring they receive the attention, love, and exercise they need.

Murphy loves staying with Linda! She has a great yard and communicates very well. I don’t worry about him at all when he’s staying with her.

Linda is wonderful! My pups returned happy, healthy, and relaxed from their “vacation”. Linda has a beautiful home, and a HUGE backyard- Perfect for zoomies and exercise. Linda pays attention to details, and I felt safe leaving my babies with her. We will definitely book with her, again! My only advice- Book early! There is high demand for Linda to dog-sit.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe that social interaction and enrichment are important and will spend regular playtime with your pet. I also put a premium on safety and will keep your pet secure. If staying at my home, there is plenty of space both inside and out to provide ample room for your pet to play, rest and sleep. I have a huge, safe fenced yard (1/2 ACRE!) where they can get plenty of exercise and run to their heart's content. If I am dropping in to take care of your pet in your home, I will adhere closely to your schedule and play with them in your house or yard if you like. In addition to regular care, I will follow any specific feeding or medication instructions that your pet requires and will provide daily updates to you in regard to your pet's well-being and any notable behaviors or issues. Your pet becomes a member of my family, and will be treated with love and affection as if they were my own.

A typical day

Playtime, Walks, Cuddles (if they like them!) We can run & play in my yard or yours. Our yard is great for larger dogs as well since it is 1/2 acre and fenced. You will see the yard in some of my profile pictures. If dropping in at your home, I will feed them and take them ousidet for a break. I'm also happy to play with them and love on them during the drop-in. Pets receive lots of attention, hugging and snuggles!
