Pet care experience

Your furry family will be in very experienced and caring hands at our home which includes a five foot high fence on a half acre lot. We have been volunteer foster parents for Lab Rescue for several years so have lots of experience caring for various dogs and dog ages. We often care for our friends’ pets so could provide additional references upon request. Our kids are both at college so we are joining Rover to help pay for their college expenses. Look forward to meeting your pups!

They were amazing! I just got a new puppy and needed last-minute arrangements. Puppies can be a ton of work, but Linda and Zachary were experienced, patient, and right there to help every step of the way. They’re super friendly, reliable, and caring. I’m so grateful to have found them. Highly recommend!

Shadow enjoyed her stay at Linda & Zac's. She enjoyed the company of their 2 dogs and the two walks a day. We appreciate the pics during her stay.

Linda & Zach are amazing! They watched our 5 month old puppy for 4 nights. They gave us updates and sent pictures of all his fun! Our puppy was in heaven with fun walks, play time with their other dogs (who are very friendly), and a great yard! We will definitely use them again!!!
