The Kind Of Care Your Pets Deserve
You pet and I will have a fantastic time together, whether it's for a drop in during the day or overnight stays! I'm engaging and caring, taking into consideration their needs for attention and time. **SCHEDULING: My rebooking score may appear low. This is due to the pet owners booking directly with me after our first job has been successful for all of us.** **AVAILABILITY: Let’s discuss the time that you need my service for drop ins, appointments, etc. Due to my work schedule, I am unable to be in the home 24/7 but will work on scheduling returns to the home for potty breaks and feeding when needed. Advance notice is appreciated so I can make arrangements where I’m able. ** ABOUT ME: I have been sitting and caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. From dogs and cats to rabbits and chickens, you can count on me to give lots of love, scratches, and sweet talk to your precious family member. I appreciate your trust and willingness to let me spend time with your pet--I know how important they are to you. I am available for daily drop-ins, feedings, overnights, and extended stays. I have even been a stand-in for vet appointments or trips to and from the groomer. (and the occasional hike here and there!) I like to help with the entire care of your pet, and that is why I am here. Currently, I can't have pets in my home, but that's ok! With me staying at your home for overnights, your pet will have less anxiety in their own environment and will adjust better to your absence. Also, your home will be occupied so that's an additional peace of mind for you. Loving on your fur-babies and supporting you in loving on them is what makes me a trusted choice for your pets' needs!

Ratings and reviews
Linda does a wonderful job walking our two nervous pups. They are unsure of strangers but she gives them time to warm up to her. I feel very comfortable having her walk them. Recommend!
Linda house\pet sat for our Balinese cat, Milo. From the start, I knew she was a good fit. Milo was instantly comfortable with her (he let her pick him up during introductory visit) and I could tell she genuinely loves animals. I felt very confident that everything would go well while I was away for 5 days — and it did! I found Linda to be highly reliable, responsible, and accessible. Anytime I texted her to check in, I received a response with a pic, assuring me everything was going well. It was refreshing being able to go away knowing our sweet boy was in great hands. Upon return, the house was clean and Milo was just perfect. I will definitely use Linda's services the next time we need to travel. Thank you!!!
Simply, Linda is amazing. Our dogs were well cared for by a trustworthy, warm person! We couldn't be more thankful!
Linda was readily available to meet with us and get acquainted with Nina and Pepper prior to the pet sitting. She is very nice, quickly responded to our texts, sent photos, and the "girls" were happy and relax when we returned home.
Linda was a charm for our 1 year English Toy Spaniel: Harlow. We wanted 3 days of 1 morning walks. Linda was most timely and Harlow had three morning successful walks. Additionally, Linda met Harlow prior to the walks and they became acquainted. Well done. Thank you.
Linda was wonderful to work with and took amazing care of our home, 3 dogs and kitten. She was easy to communicate with. Linda was so sweet and took extra time and had great patience with our grumpy older dachshund. 5 stars!!!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am gainfully employed, some days it feels like more work than there are hours! My schedule is set and I am able to work your pet's care into my schedule.
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
At your home your fur-baby and I will play, snuggle, and go for walks. If outdoor play is an option then we'll certainly get tired out for a long nap :) Sometimes, if your pet is interested, we'll go on a road trip to my home and receive the same kind of care as in their own environment. (my home is pet free, so if your pet isn't fond of other animals, this will work out well.)
A typical day
When we're together I enjoy walks and playtime, and I know your pet will, too! Whether that playtime is indoors or out, I hope we'll all be tuckered out and ready for a nap afterwards!
