Dog lover with a flexible schedule!

Pet care experience

My first dog was born the same year as me. I cared for him from a very early age and throughout his life, making sure he always had food and water, letting him into the yard and back into the house when he’d ask, and brushing him regularly. In my adult life, I have dogsat more times than I can count—for family, friends, neighbors, acquaintances, and more recently, Rover clients. I've cared for small and large dogs, senior dogs, puppies, dog-aggressive and food-aggressive dogs, anxious dogs, as well as dogs who need daily oral medication or specialty food. I am comfortable and confident providing the care and support that any of these dogs may need. Lindsey's Non-Negotiable Rules of Dogwalking: 1. We do not drink puddle water or eat sidewalk french fries. 2. We do not walk in the street. 3. We do not chase birds and we try very hard to not chase squirrels & bunnies. 4. We follow the doggo’s nose unless it leads to peril or tardiness. I am currently working as a full-time artist so I have flexibility with my schedule. A lot of pets thrive with a routine, and my flexible schedule helps me to accommodate your pet's daily routine and care. I am open to same-day walking requests and am quick to respond as to whether I’m available or not. I am happy to do house calls to take your dog(s) for walks, feed them, brush them, and keep them company while you're out. I am open to staying at your home overnight if necessary, depending on my schedule and availability. Unfortunately I am not able to board pets in my home at this time.

Pica is not the best with new people. Lindsey was patient and calm earning Pica's trust before their walk. Lindsey is great and I'll book with her again. Thanks Lindsey.

Lindsey is very professional, friendly, and was gentle with our dogs! She asked some great questions in the beginning like of were working on anything for her to be aware of, knew to hook their leashes up front to reduce pulling, etc. one of our dogs is not easy to walk on a leash and Lindsey is still willing to work with them! Thanks Lindsey!

Information Lindsey B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog is dog-aggressive or pulls on the leash a lot (if not already stated in your profile), and if there are any other needs, behaviors, or anxiety to accommodate. I’m open to working with any special needs or behaviors, but like to have a heads up so that I can greet and treat them appropriately :)

A typical day

I love walking at the dog’s pace, allowing them to follow their nose to inform our route. I can take them to dog parks if they like to play with other dogs, but also happy to take them around the neighborhood for a solo adventure. If I’m dropping in, we can play with toys or I can give them back rubs, ear scritches, and belly scratches! I also have a knack for taking really cute pictures of dogs, so you can count on adorable visual updates of your furry family member. If you plan in advance, I’m open to taking your dog on a day trip adventure and/or local hike. It could be a trip to a special dog park or a nature walk with great smells and scenery. Either way, you’ll get great personality pics of your pup. The doggy seatbelt, water jugs, chuckit, and treats that I keep in my car guarantee a safe, fun day. Message to inquire about this option!
