Pet care experience

I am a true animal lover

I grew up on an 80 Acre Farm with everything from small to large animals. I had 3 dogs growing up I cared for. I worked on animal farms most of my life. I have a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science (Specialization in Equine) from Delaware Valley University. I was an Equestrian Center Manager after Graduating College. Not only did I care for 40 horses I also took care of the cats and dogs on the farm. I love animals, and I am highly educated on taking care of them. I come with 37 years experience being around dogs. And what sets me apart is not just my experience working with dogs, but my true love of animals! My husband David and I currently have 2 dogs named Cooper and Bella. Cooper is a medium sized dog Lab mix and Bella is a Golden Retriever. They are both very frendly and love other dogs. We take them to the dog park regularly.

I couldn't imagine finding a more kind and caring person to watch our puppy. He's 9 years old and has insulin-dependent diabetes. This was easy for Lindsey with her background in animal science and years of experience around animals. I felt at ease as soon as I found her on Rover. When Bruzer walked into Lindsey's apartment he was as calm as he was at home. Lindsey was kind enough to send pictures to show he was happy during his two nights as well. When my parents come in town with my family dog again I won't hesitate to have Lindsey watch him!

Lindsey took great care of Bronte! She was very responsive to my texts and sent updates with pictures and videos while we were away. She also was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. Bronte had a very good staycation :)

Lindsey was great to work with. She responded promptly and was very flexible on times to leave Charlie off and pick him up. We felt very comfortable leaving Charlie with Lindsey because she works from home and we knew that would be a good arrangement for him since he likes being around people. Finally, Lindsey sent us a super cute video of Charlie taken while he was wiggling around in his dog bed. That made us feel very good about his home away from home.

Had a nice experience with Lindsey! She was flexible when our flight was delayed, kept us updated during the stay, and brought our dog to the dog park multiple times a day. Would definitely recommend and would book with her again!

We already have 2 dogs named Cooper and Bella who I walk 3 times a day and take to trips to the dog park. I work from home, so I am around to pet sit and care for the animals. We have a beautiful fully fenced back yard with plenty of room to roam and play in and out throughout the day.

Would need to be friendly with other dogs since we have a lab mix named Cooper who is 6 years old , and a Golden Retriever named Bella who is 2 years old. Bella and Cooper are gentle with other dogs and very friendly and love to play. I also would want to know of any special medications or conditions, and if are up to date on their vaccines.
