Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving home for your dogs
I’m a dog trainer who’s taken a step back from training to focus on my family and two young girls. I’ve spent over a decade as a positive reinforcement trainer working in facilities, shelters and rescue, private homes and daycare environments. We are dog lovers through and through and love opening our doors for furry companions. We have lots of experience fostering puppies and have raised a few litters of puppies in our home. I have extensive experience working with puppies, reactive dogs, seniors, over exuberant dogs and everything in between.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Lindsay was so incredible with Koda! We got regular updates and I couldn’t imagine him being any happier. Between the runs at the private dog park, days in the pool and quality time he spent getting tons of love and attention we felt like he had a vacation as well! We would love to have Koda stay with Lindsay again 😊
5 STARS - Would highly recommend - Great communication and daily updates
Dug and Indi had a wonderful time at Lindsay’s. They came home happy and all played out. Would highly recommend her services!
We had an excellent experience with Lindsay. She was incredibly caring, attentive and responsible, and our pup was clearly comfortable and happy the entire time. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We’ll absolutely be booking with Lindsay again.
Lindsay is the best!!! Our dog always has the very best time staying at her house! It gives us so much peace of mind, and we are so thankful to her and her family!
Lindsay and her family were amazing with our little Digby. We received photos and videos of him having the best time. He was clearly loved like he was part of their family. She made sure he got his daily walks in, enjoyed playing and having snuggles. We couldn't be happier with our experience and would not hesitate to have Digby stay with her again. Thank you for loving our little Digby while we enjoyed our time away. Knowing he was well cared for made was very much appreciated.

Schedule
I’m a stay at home mom and my husband works from home so our days are incredibly flexible and there’s almost always someone around to have eyes on your baby. I love any excuse to enjoy some fresh air so getting out for walks is a pleasure. We are very used to integrating a variety of dogs needs into our daily rhythm and enjoy seeing the fulfillment the animals get from our time out adventuring.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced yard for playing, baby gates at doors for an extra level of safety. Dogs can be crated as needed for comfort. We have a flexible space and are able to adjust to your dogs needs. Dogs must be comfortable with children, even though our children are well trained to give dogs space and are not left unsupervised with new animals.
A typical day
A typical day depends on your dogs likes, and needs as well as weather. Too hot or too cold and we adjust as needed. Typically we wake up and have a potty break and some breakfast. I love to feed breakfast in food dispensers to get your dogs nose and brain working. From there we head out on an adventure, wether it’s a leashed walk around the neighborhood, run at the park or even a trip to a dog friendly shop and practice and learn some Fun tricks. After that it’s chill out time in the house or play with the kids for a little bit. We do make sure pups get some down time during the day, whether it’s just a nap on the couch or scheduled time in their crate. For higher needs dogs a short mid day walk might be desirable before more relaxing in the afternoon. I love food toys so if dogs are struggling to relax, a bit on a snack in a frozen kong can be a good brain burner. We do our last outing after dinner with options again depending on the dog. We also are happy to book private off leash time for dogs at cost to the owner.
