Reviews
LindaMarie was so amazing! She took such great care of our Max and kept us up to date with pictures and any questions she had! We will definitely use her again!
Linda is seriously AMAZING! she has been watching my 4 month old puppy every week and my dog never wants to leave her house! She is worn out by the time she comes home. Linda is very communicative, reliable and so sweet. We are using her for training as well and my puppy is having the best time. We will use her for as long as we can!
Lindamarie helped our elderly cat while we took a short vacation. She was absolutely wonderful and left things tidier than she found them. ❤️ Her updates were exactly the sort of information I need to know the kitty is tolerating our absence well.
Lindamarie exceeded my expectations. Looking for someone who will go above and beyond, Lindamarie is the one for you! I was going on vacation and it was going to be the first time away from my puppy Murphy. It was a last minute trip and I was feeling unsure about leaving Murphy, let alone using someone I had never met. That quickly changed when Lindamarie agreed to watch her. From our first meeting, Lindamarie asked all the right questions. She wanted to know all about Murphy: her habits, needs, and any training I was working on with her. Her questions made me feel like I was with someone who cared and would ensure Murphy was well looked after. I was not wrong. Turns out Lindamarie is not just a great person who loves dogs, she is an experienced trainer and dog behaviorist. While away, I received updates, pics, and she helped Murphy stop dumping her water bowl! They say leave things better than you got them, well Murphy was all the more trained when I returned! She went above and beyond! I've already recommended Lindamarie to friends and can't give her enough praise. If you want your pup to be well taken care of and feel they are in trusted hands, Lindamarie is who you should book! I can't wait to use her services again!
