Hi! I'm Lindsay. :) I have had multiple pets throughout my life - most of the time we had a small zoo (including birds, fish and frogs!). My parents believed in requiring taking care of pets as part of our responsibilities, so I started caring for animals at a young age. I have had my own little guy (dachshund) for 13 years. When I’m sitting somewhere he can’t come, he stays (happily) with my mom. I have been sitting for my friends & relatives since I was in high school (lots of experience), for a variety of critters ranging from a Mastiff to a teacup Chihuahua to bearded dragons. I'm happy to care for your home as well (indoor & outdoor plants, outside birds/little critters, etc) while you are out of town. I have a deep love for animals, and the joy they bring to people and life. I will treat yours with the same care and love as my own, with as little disruption to their routine as possible. I know it's hard to leave your fur children, and I am more than happy to send photo/video updates via text or the app, just let me know what you prefer! I believe animals make the world a better place, and I would love to take care of your fur family! PS: I work a full time job that is remote, and go into the office occasionally but will largely be “home” during the day. I will usually leave for about an hour late afternoon for a gym break. (If you have questions about photo updates or my Rover booking score, feel free to contact me! Often I send updates/photos/videos over text instead of the app, which can affect Rover's metrics.)
