Safety, trust & environment
I don't take in pets at my home as I have a cat that only tolerates some dogs. I do whatever is needed to make you and your pet comfortable when sitting in your home.
Information Linda S. would like to know about your pet
I need to know some standard information and any details can also help. How old is your dog or animal and any health injuries or concerns. Any things that can upset your pet with people or other animals? Does your dog tolerate other dogs or people on a walk? What are your pets favorites? Please share details. I have to make sure both your dog and I are safe, dogs that pull hard or lunge after other dogs or people can injure walkers/sitters and themselves or others. Please train your dogs well to walk. Please be honest if your dog has ever bitten another animal or person.
A typical day
I will walk your dog in your neighborhood or bring to nearby parks when available. I can also play fetch with balls, toys or frisbee, and offer belly rubs, ear scratches and some therapeutic massage. I can walk them for a few blocks or up to 5 kilometers especially on an overnight stay. Whatever your pet enjoys. I will brush them and practice commands or skills that they know.

Pet care experience
A mature fun-loving English teacher, who can walk and exercise your dog, do some basic training with dogs and cats and provide overall great care. I am a lifelong pet owner who understands how hard it is to leave your pet for long work days or travel. That is why I will do everything I can to personalize your pets experience. Anything from playing fetch with their favorite toys, walking a designated or new route, bringing them to a dog park, brushing them or just letting then cuddle and rest if that makes them happy. I have a medical background and am confident and gentle in giving meds and working with pets with disabilities or effects of aging. I can perform pet CPR and can do basic bathing for extended sits or small extra fee. I have trained dogs to follow commands, catch Frisbee or retrieve other toys, swim, walk with assistive devices when older, and use a crate successfully. I can also train cats to walk with harness and leash and/or ride in or on pet back pack. Pet sitting and walking experience part time for many years. Currently, my schedule is flexible as I only work occasionally tutoring on line. I speak limited German at this time but am working towards improving daily.

Reviews

Linda was wonderful! She delivered care and service for beyond my expectation! I highly recommend Linda to watch your dog or cat.


Linda was excellent at communicating and sending pictures. She went above and beyond the call of duty even giving my dog extra long walks. They will be best friends now for sure. Also super communicative about my cat who was just diagnosed with kidney disease and I was nervous to leave her. Thanks Linda!



Linda was great! We were traveling through the area and needed pet support for the day. She did a thorough meet and greet the day before to ensure that dogs were familiar with her and she had eveything she needed. She provided great reports and even called us with a verbal report. Would definitely recommend her!



Thank you Linda! So good to know our pups are in good hands while we are out.
