Pet care experience

Conscientious, reliable dog lover

**I'm so sorry, but because I am severely allergic I am unable to accept housesitting jobs in homes where there are cats.** We always had a dog growing up, and since I became an adult I have always had dogs, too. I can't imagine life without one! You can be sure your dog is safe in my hands as I am extremely careful with my own and will treat yours as if they were mine! They'll be happy while you are away, I'll play with them and walk them, and make sure they aren't lonely. I am reliable, and do my jobs thoroughly and completely, so you can count on me to care for your dog to the utmost. Now that I am semi-retired I have a lot of free time, and I can't think of a better way to spend it than looking after your dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

Our puppy Peluche just came home at 8 weeks old in August 2022, so while he is still so young and being trained/housebroken I am temporarily not accepting boarding or day care requests. I'm happy to come house sit your dog(s), drop in, or walk them!

Linda was very responsive to our needs for both our pet and home. She took care of medicine needs and provided much needed attention for our Bichon. We are ready to book with her for our next vacation!

We had such a fantastic experience with Linda as our dog sitter! She truly went above and beyond while caring for our dog, Kia. One of the most fun and memorable parts was that this is Kia’s third “French lesson” with Linda, she even gets to sit in on her classes! At this point, we’re convinced Kia is well on her way to being bilingual. It’s such a unique and thoughtful touch, and we love knowing Kia is getting extra attention and enrichment. Linda also sent tons of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could clearly see that Kia was happy, relaxed, and having a great time. To top it all off, we came home to a perfectly clean house, everything was spotless and just as we left it. Linda is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter (and maybe a French tutor for their dog too!). Jade and Kia

Linda was a fantastic sitter for Violet and Eve! Very responsive, provided excellent updates with photos and did a great job caring for them while we were away for a week. She also went the extra mile cleaning bedding etc. We will definitely ask Linda if she’s available the next time we travel.

Linda was a fantastic sitter for Shadow and we will definitely use her again when we travel. She kept us very well informed and sent pictures daily. She even washed the sheets and towels used which was an added surprise. It was great to travel worry free with Linda’s care of our girl. Highly recommended and appreciated.

Linda is very dependable. She communicates and sends pictures regularly. One of my little dogs has a very big personality. She sends the funniest messages about her!
