Information Lindsey C. would like to know about your pet

I will want to know what your dog’s temperament is like and what his/her triggers are (e.g. how does your dog react to seeing other dogs, seeing new people, seeing bunnies or deer on walks, etc.) I would also discuss walking habits beforehand (does your dog wear a harness, do you typically walk with treats, etc.) and what your expectations are for me. If your dog has any special needs or anything else noteworthy about him/her!

A typical day

I think it is super important to not only physically tire out a dog but mentally tire him/her out too! Going new places on walks, not doing the same thing every time, and experiencing lots of new smells is a perfect way to keep your dog mentally engaged. I love hiking and nature so I love walking on nature trails or finding new hiking spots to walk my dog at! I also do not at all mind just walking around a neighborhood, and will switch up the route that I walk to keep your dog interested!

Pet care experience

I recently moved to the area to start vet school at UIUC. I graduated from UConn in May of 2023 with my bachelors degree in animal science and love any and all animals! I currently have 3 dogs- one hound mix rescue, one jindo mix rescue from Thailand, and a senior golden doodle. I have watched dogs and cats for friends and have experience giving medication, following through with training, and senior care. I have interned at a zoo and have had experience with exotic animals as well!

Lindsey has done a wonderful job caring for Luna while I have been out of town. She takes great care in providing detailed updates and pictures.

Lindsey was great walking my pup! She completed a rover card and left a nice detailed note of how the walk went. She's very caring and loves dogs, so I feel confident in leaving my pup Riley in her hands. I would highly recommend and will be using her again in the future!

Lindsey was amazing taking care of my cat while I was away. She sent regular updates and photos letting me know my cat was in excellent hands. My cat is usually scared around people and she loved Lindsey and cuddled with her a lot! Lindsey also kept everything clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend having Lindsey watch your pet!

Lindsey was great! She sent me a ton of photos of my dog and gave me a detailed summary of how the visit went. 11/10, will definitely book with her again. :)
