Be The Teacher's Pet!

I am a certified veteran teacher of 23 years, with a 16 year old dog loving daughter and a 12 year old son, who often love to help me care for dogs (and the occasional cat), when their schedules allow! This is a great opportunity for both of them to extend what they already know about caring for dogs to meeting new dogs and then having your pets meet gentle and loving care givers! It is a win-win! Your dog(s) will be happy, and so will we! As an elementary educator, I display patience, love, and enthusiasm on.a daily basis and want to extend that same care to your pet(s)! Our availability ranges from early mornings, evenings, school year breaks, summer, and most weekends. We will not be accepting dogs into our home, as we love helping dogs in their own home environments! We will be there to help your dogs with bathroom training, feeding them, distributing medications (if needed) and taking them on walks! We also try to help pet parents out by retrieving mail, taking care of trash cans, and watering flowers!

Safety, trust & environment

We care for your pets as if they were our own! We will take many pictures, give them lots of love & follow all directions. We will also make sure we leave your home clean and only go in the areas where your pets are! We currently have over 80+ reviews, often with repeat clients that we have come to know and trust--they are like family to us, now!

Lindsay has taken care of our pups several times and we’ve had nothing but great experience with her. Very communicative and willing to handle the chaos that our dogs can be!

Lindsay was an amazing sitter for our two dogs, very punctual, professional, and provided meaningful updates while we were away. Highly recommend!

Schedule

During the school year, we are available most week day early mornings, evenings and weekends. Since my children and I are in school (as students and myself as a teacher) 10 months of the year, we are available to care for your pet(s) all through the summer (June-August).

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Lindsay can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let us know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that we need to account for. For instance, does your dog get "excited" when it sees other people, squirrels, rabbits, etc. ?
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.
