Conscientious, reliable dog lover

Pet care experience

**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.

Linda did a great job with our two pups. Communication and pictures were timely. Will definitely book again.

There's not enough room to write how excellent Linda is with our Kia! Kia is so sad when we have to leave her for an extended time and just sulks but not with Linda! I think when we come home she is wondering "Where the heck is Linda?!!?" From walks to treats to butt scratches Kia gets them all when Linda is there! Kia and Linda share shifts guarding each other in Linda's words "from Marauders, Huns, and Visigoths" which we appreciate as we don't need any of those around the house. Kia picked up on French lessons from where she left off last time as soon as she arrived and has now surpassed me in my language knowledge. Be on the lookout for "Kia and Linda in Paris" this summer on Netflix! If you want the best sitter there is go with Linda, just not when we need her lol !!

Linda did such a wonderful job. She took great care of our baby and our house. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.

Linda did an excellent job pet sitting our 5 mo old puppy. We will not hesitate to hire her again. She loves animals and is a competent, reliable and kind person.

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!

Information Linda U. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any behaviors, such as separation anxiety, or being frightened of loud noises, that I should be aware of.

A typical day

I've just moved to Gloucester Virginia, after being a successful Rover sitter on Long Island, New York. I've got a 6 acre wooded property on a semi-private road where we could go for walks!
