Pet care experience

I have three decades of experience caring for pets. I'm comfortable giving daily shots and medication, if needed. I'm also lucky enough to be a home owner with a fenced in, private yard. I had four chihuahuas of my own for 15 years. Since then, I find great joy in caring for other peoples' dogs.

My pup Rocco has stayed with Linda multiple times since I got him a year and a half ago. He can take a day or so to settle and she is so patient and caring with him. She goes above and beyond to make sure he feels at home and by the time I pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave! I am so thankful for Linda and all she does for my little anxious guy!

We were so fortunate to find Linda to care for Mango. From the minute we read the reviews and connected over FaceTime we knew she was uniquely qualified to care for our special dog. Linda did not disappoint! She is really committed to the pet feeling at home and truly getting to know them and forming a strong relationship. As the pet parent, I really felt like Mango was a huge priority for Linda. This commitment really shows in how fast Mango adapted and became attached to Linda. Linda is very vigilant and noticed when Mango was not feeling well. She not only went to the store to buy special bland food and cooked some special bland options for Mango but ultimately scheduled a vet appointment(after asking us) to make sure she was not missing anything serious. This is all you can ask for in a caretaker. On top of great care, Linda sent many photos and updates and responded very quickly to any text we sent. Linda cared for Mango for 3 weeks and it was clear they really got to know each other and formed a wonderful bond. We strongly recommend Linda and feel so lucky to have found her. We look forward to having Linda care for Mango in the future.

This is my third time with Linda! I went for a longer trip this time, and my dog was in excellent hands, She sends updates and fotos, and is a great communicator, which helps so much when travelling. From scheduling, to drop off to pick up, I highly recommend her!

Linda is truly wonderful. I can’t praise her enough. My little boy loves going on his “vacation” to see her and almost never wants to leave when it’s time to go home. Thank you, Linda, for providing such a safe and loving second home for him.
