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.

Yoshi loves going to Linda's, she takes the best care of him whenever I need to leave town! She is the best.

Linda is wonderful to our pup, she let's him make himself at home in her home. Always nice to have him in good hands so we don't have to stress on vacation.

Linda took the best care of my Yoshi while I was gone for 10 days. I’d typically be apprehensive being gone for so long, but I knew that he was in good hands with Linda!! She checked in frequently and did everything to make sure he felt at home at her place! 😊

Linda watched our dog overnight and he was well cared for. He loves her backyard.

Highly recommend! Linda was very thoughtful in her approach to caring for my dog, Ruby. Her daily rate was higher than other sitters I looked at, but her "one-pet-at-a-time" policy and excellent setup made it worth it. Thank you!

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.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
