Pet care experience

Patient and loving caregiver

Growing up on a farm I have been around animals my entire life. I believe in patience, love and understanding. I have owned and cared for many animals from puppies to senior dogs with incontinence issues, to paralysis and heart disease. I recently worked as a vet tech assistant for 2 years at a small animal general practice.

Our dog’s first stay with Linda went really well! She took time to ask questions to make sure it was a good fit for our dog and everyone involved. Great communication and expectations were clear. We look forward to more visits in the future.

I can’t say enough good things about the care my frenchie, Yoshi, received during his stay with Linda. He truly is like my child, so leaving him with someone new can be a little nerve wracking. But from the moment I met Linda, I felt completely at ease and knew he would be in great care.Linda took exceptional care of Yoshi and treated him with so much love and attention. She was also amazing with communication, sending updates and photos, which meant the world to me and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Yoshi was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust with him. I would absolutely recommend Linda to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring dog sitter.

This is the 2nd time Stella has stayed with Linda. We received daily updates, pictures and videos. Stella enjoyed the long walks twice a day and enticing Linda to play with her toys. We will definitely use Linda again - we know she is being well taken care of and given lots of love.

Our frequently anxious Mochi seemed relaxed when we dropped him off for his second stay with Linda. She sent daily photo updates, which reassured us that he was enjoying a peaceful getaway. We're grateful to Linda for creating a true home away from home for Mochi.

We are so grateful to Linda for caring for our dog with heart and skill. She is a clear communicator and sent us an update - including photos - each day which put our minds at ease. Mochi was so calm when we left him and when we picked him up, a testament to Linda’s ability to make him feel comfortable and welcome in a new environment. Thank you, Linda!

Safety, trust & environment

Currently I do not have any pets in my home, so your sweetie will get 100% of my attention! My neighborhood is perfect for safe and quiet walks. I have a large yard that is unfenced so pets would be on a leash at all times when outside. Plan on your baby getting plenty of love, snuggles and reassurance! I try to cater and be flexible to their routine as much as possible.

A typical day

We will check out all the smells in the neighborhood when out for walks and when at home play with toys and get plenty of love and snuggles
