Information Lindsay W. would like to know about your pet

Knowing any specific needs, routines, or medical requirements is crucial. This includes dietary restrictions, favorite toys, and any behavioral traits that might require special attention.

A typical day

Anyting and everything! What’s your pet's favorite activity? We could play with toys, run around, snuggle, or even give belly rubs! My dog and his girlfriend love to watch the Rugrats together, while my cat loves to zoom around after a laser pointer. I tailor activities to what the pet enjoys the most.

Pet care experience

Hello hello, I’m Lindsay. I’m a local artist and proud pet-mom to an Australian Shepherd and a black cat. I have decades of of experience taking care of dogs, cats, and the occasional bunny or fish. I work from home and make my own hours so my schedule is very flexible. Fun facts: 1. I’m a photographer so expect some cute photos during visits. 2. I sew my dog clothes 3. I build pillow forts for cats 4. Everyone says that when they die they want to come back as one of my very spoiled pets. 5. I collect plants so I can help identify any potentially dangerous ones in your home.

Lindsay was great with my pup! She sent tons of pics throughout the day and was super communicative

Lindsay is wonderful! She picks up Garbanzo twice a week for daycare, and he adores her (and her dog, Gimli). He always comes home happy and tired, and it’s clear he has the best time at her place. Lindsay is incredibly reliable, communicative, and trustworthy—I never have to worry when Bonzo’s with her. He loves her so much that if he catches a whiff of Lindsay or her fiancé, Mark, near our apartment, he loses his mind trying to find them! Couldn’t recommend her more highly.
