Pet care experience

Caring, mature professional ready to keep your pets safe and happy while you're away. Experienced pet care taker with flexible schedule available for house/pet sitting. I have been a proud fur mama to Murphy (Golden Retriever), Samson (German Shepherd/Great Dane) and Sophie (Wire Haired Pointer/Lab), and Buddy (Tabby Cat) who are now waiting over the Rainbow Bridge for me. I will love and care for your fur baby as my own. You can rest assured your fur babies (including cats!) will be safe with me. I can administer medicine/injections and have my pet first aid/CPR certification. I'm on disability due to OBS (old body syndrome) after coaching gymnastics for 35 years. So my schedule is relatively open. I will be staying in your home during my sit. Your pets are most comfortable there. I will go over expectations when we meet before the sit.

Linda did a great job taking care of our dog, cat, fish and plants. Our house was in order. Our dog misses her terribly, sad as that is, it lets me know Linda did a wonderful job with our puppy. I am already having her return for another sitting. Thank you Rover for providing this much needed service.

To say I was disappointed with the conditions of my home when I came back was to say the least. I asked for the dogs only to be on the couch if they were cuddling with someone and I asked for them to be wiped off prior to coming inside. Neither were done, I left rules for the dogs and they were not followed. The love Linda has for pets is undoubtedly unconditional, she took care of them, cuddled them, gave them kisses and they were very happy while we were away, I was unsatisfied with the quality of care to my home but not the quality of care for my pets.
