Highlights
Pet care experience
Di Miceli Dog Care
Hello my name is Lindsay. I am a mother and I have two cats and a Belgian malinois. My daughter and I both adore all animals and would love to take care of yours for you! I am good with any size and any breed. I have had all types of pets my entire life and have been taking care of friends dogs for as long I can remember. My mom owned her own pet care service and I learned a lot as a child from helping her. I have experience with dogs as small as chihuahuas and as large as great dane's. I previously had a client who owned four pit bulls; one of which was not good with strangers and we got along great. I also used to have two Rottweilers of my own and I currently own a malinois as mentioned above, so you know you can count on me. I will play with your dog(s) all day long, take them for walks, make sure they are well fed and with clean water, and care for them as if they were my own! I am very flexible and will gladly take on any special task or routine you have for your pet. You will no doubt be able to trust me with your baby and after meeting me you will know your pets are in great hands!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am very loving and caring with all animals. My usual routine for my own dog includes feeding her in the morning as soon as I wake up and making sure she has clean water. I take her for at least a 30 minute walk, 3 times a day as she is a very active breed. I will take on any routine you have going for your pet and do whatever is necessary to make you and them happy.
Ratings and reviews
Lindsay was phenomenal. We could tell that Lola and cooper was in good hands! They got plenty of cuddles, love and attention while we were away. Lindsay always had great communication, even if she was running a few mins behind. We have found our forever Dogsitter!
She was great! Came the day before to meet me and my dog to go over everything. Very responsive and obviously caring!
Lindsay took excellent care of my Brady again ! she updated me in texts and pictures on Brady happiness during the day ! we love her :)

Lindsay was great like always with my Brady ! great communications and i knew my boy was well taken care of when we got home !!! Brady is in love with Lindsay :)
Overall, I would rate Lindsay as a good pet-sitter. Prior to our vacation, she was very timely in responding to my messages and she also modified the Rover.com charges to a very reasonable rate for her visits with our 2 cats. It was while we were gone that I felt she fell short. My first issue was with her inconsistency in providing updates on the visits - there was a photo and thorough recap on the 1st day, but on subsequent days there was less detail and on one day there was no update at all. My second issue was with the timing of her visits. I had made it very clear that it was important to check in during the early afternoon, but at least twice she didn't visit until the evening. My third issue was with attention to detail - I had left very specific notes about the cats' food/water/litter and it didn't seem that she had followed them. Lastly, my greatest concern was with the well-being of our female cat and her being bullied by the male cat in our absence. We came back to find that she had a facial injury and had urinated in a chair out of fear. All-in-all our pets were reasonably cared for, but I was definitely disappointed. Lindsay is a very nice girl and I'm sure she had the best intentions. I think the issues may have been due to lack of experience or perhaps I wasn't clear enough on stressing the importance of certain things. (To those reading this review, please note that I have very high expectations for the care of my pets and I think Lindsay is absolutely capable of meeting the needs of a less demanding client.)
