I have know Linda Long for many years; working with her in mental health services; working with emotionally disturbed children. She is one of the most genuine people you will ever meet. She and I both share a deep love for animals. She lost her 11 yr. old Golden Retriever, Charlie just yesterday and is having a difficult time. Charlie would go with her everywhere; running every morning, hiking, out for ice cream, etc. Linda has a heart for every living creature. She would be wonderful for this type of work. I highly recommend her.

Linda has had at least one dog pretty much as long as I've known her, and it's hard to think of someone more well-suited for high-energy pets. She goes on runs every morning and loves walking through the woods, especially if she has a furry friend to join her. For dogs that especially love fetch, frisbee, swimming, or other games, she will give them all the exercise and attention they can ask for. She is also great with older and lower-energy dogs, giving them their fair share of belly rubs and snuggle time. Rest assured that Linda will do everything in her power to make your dog comfortable and happy while you are away.
