Pet care experience

I care for every furchild as my own

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life and finally got my own pup in 2023. I love all breeds, sizes and ages and cater my care specific to every dog’s needs. I am very patient and keep up with guidelines and research to ensure I’m doing my best as a dog mom and carer of animals in a daily basis.

Boarding • Aug 28, 2026

Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!

Drop-In Visits • Aug 21, 2026

Linda was able to come visit my puppy very last minute and I appreciate her availability. She answered promptly to my questions and kept me updated during the visit. I was nervous as this was my first time using Rover, but she was very kind and understanding.

Linda treats her animals as family members and goes the extra mile to ensure they are happy, healthy, safe, and well loved. She pays attention to the details such as change in personality, food intake, and potty breaks. Linda also ensures they are well stimulated physically by walks and the park and mentally with different lick mats, games, and toys. Linda loves animals and has a dog of her own, so she can speak from personal experience and also always has little bits of information she shares with me to improve my own dog's life. She works hard and always makes her pet a top priority.

Schedule

I’m currently between jobs and home all day, meaning I have flexibility every day. I love getting my steps in, so I am more than happy to take your pup on long walks and will happily provide drop in visits! While boarding or daycare with me, your dog will join me and Killian on our walks, get treats, lick mats, and I can take them to the dog park if you’d like and feel safe enough to.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a trustworthy person who treats every being and environment like her own. I understand animal’s body language and barks/growls and will ensure their safety and comfort. I love dogs and cats of all sizes and am able to handle big dogs on walks as my boy is 80lbs. I prioritize their safety, comfort and enrichment. I live near Roverwest, so just lmk if you’re comfortable with me taking your dog over!

Pets

A typical day

I love using my chuck it to play fetch, use long lines for sniffy walks, utilize sniff mats, chews, and will give your dog lots of physical affection. Typically we wake up early and go to Roverwest for 30-40mins, rest, breakfast, a 30min walk around noon and then a shorter 10-15min walk around 4:30.

Please let me know your dog’s personality so I can best cater to their needs. I’d also love know their energy levels, if they’re reactive to other dogs/people and their behavior on walks and if you’d like for me to bring them to Roverwest with us.
