Let me LOVE them when you can't!

Pet care experience

Experienced, Compassionate, Trustworthy, Energectic and Outdoorsy! Not only do I possess a lifetime of owning, training and caring for my own resident dogs, but I also have 10 years of committed fostering experience (all breeds/mixed breeds/rescues) in my home. My extensive background fostering a multitude of dog from various backgrounds, has taught me the importance of recognizing each dog's individual and unique personality, behaviors and needs. I also understand the importance of safe introductions between my resident dogs and new unfamiliar dogs. This initial interaction is key in determining how successful the dogs will cohabitate, therefore making their stay with us feel like their home-away-from-home. I will accommodate whatever sleeping preferences you prefer, but all are welcomed to snuggle up on my bed for a good nights sleep. I believe consistent excercise and fresh air is imparative for both a dogs physical and mental health. Nothing sparks my soul more than sharing a morning run, an afternoon walk/hike, or an evening of unbridled play at the dog park with my (OR YOUR) pups. I am extremely responsible and will be honored to make certain your precious furry family member(s) is safe, exercised, nourished, medicated, snuggled and most importantly, LOVED!

Linda did an awesome job with are furry family members and went above and beyond the call of duty! Thank you so much for keeping them happy while we were away. The pictures we received each day were great to confirm they were both being taken care of and the heartache to leave them home was relieved.

Linda, is outstanding. Can't say enough good things about her professionalism and ability working with dogs. We were in a tough spot as we were pulled out of town and needed someone to drop in and take care of our dogs last minute. Found Linda on Rover, and decided to reach out to her to see if she could assist. Linda immediately responded back, and was incredibly professional in her interactions. More importantly she was able to take care of our 90 pound German Shepherd Ruby and our 4 month old St. Bernard/Newfoundland puppy Gus. Both dogs loved her, and she was such an incredible help in walking both dogs each day we were out of town. She was always on time, and sent us great pictures on her walks with the boys! Again, can't recommend her strong enough, and I know we will be using her services again in the near future!

Linda has watched our young husky-shep many times for long weekends and even when we went on a 10 day vacation. Our girl requires a lot of exercise and play time and she definitely gets that when she’s with Linda! Linda is very knowledgeable about dogs and we have all the trust in her with our girl! Our pup always gets so excited to see Linda!

Primarily if they are dog, people (kid) friendly, age and house/crate trained. No specific breed preference.

A typical day

My home is situated on three acres and a very quiet street so often I walk or run a two or five mile route from my home. I also have an annual pass to the county parks and have a favorite dog park (80 acres) within 7 miles of my home. Although my entire yard isn't fenced, there is a portion is around my pool that is. I also will use a long lead when letting dogs out that may be runners and will remain outside with them each time they go out.
