Pet care experience

Life, love and dawgs

Being raised on a farm, dogs have always been part of my life, even rescuing wild dogs as a small child. All my friends and family say, "When I die, I want to come back as one of Linda's dogs. Then I'll really be in heaven." The recent loss of my beloved Schnauzer, Ruby, has caused me to take a break in having my own fur baby. Ruby brought me so much love, laughter and joy. I hope to pass that on to your fur baby now. I'm retired and available to love on, play with and keep your fur baby safe and happy any day of the week. I'm flexible for your schedule. I would sit down with you to find out your, and your pets, expectations and needs so that your pet's experience would be similar to being in their own home.

Linda is so good to our doggo and does what she can to make him comfortable in her home. Going back multiple times tells me a lot about his comfort with her when he is excited when we arrive.

Daisy is happy to go to Linda’s and she takes over her house as soon as we arrive. She is very comfortable there and she receives a lot of love and play time.

What a relief we found Linda to keep Bentley, our Golden Doodle. Normally he has stayed at a local big box pet hotel. From the first meet and greet to picking him up after a week, his routine was just like living with us, hanging out of Linda’s patio, sitting on her sofa and barking at walkers, taking naps. Linda didn’t miss a beat keeping him balanced and truly at home. We love her.

Linda was very nice and took great care of Millie. She even invited us in her house so we could walk Millie in and see the surroundings. Beautiful clean house and it was obvious Millie was comfortable. Thank you!

Linda is warm and very knowledgeable about animal care and ways that pups can feel comfortable in her home. She is super calm and I’m sure my dog sensed that. Boy, does she love dogs. For the first time ever boarding my dog, Puddin came up to the door when I came to pick her excited but super chill. She was so relaxed! She didn’t want to bolt out the door as she usually does. I know she was loved while I was home. Best boarding experience ever! Linda loved my pet like it were her own. I will definitely use her again. We have found the perfect person for our doggo.

It is important for me to know any special needs of your pet. These may be habits, behavioral needs, or medications. The more I can know, the better your pet will feel.
