Energetic, Reliable Pet Sitter!
Pet care experience
About Me: Having lived with dogs my whole life, I am very experienced and excited to help care for your four legged friend! I have experience with dogs of all different breeds, dispositions, and sizes and would love to get to meet yours next! I am experienced in proper dog training and handling and have experience with dogs who are blind, deaf, diabetic, tri-pawed, or have separation anxiety. I have experience administering medicine (oral or injected), drops, ointments. etc. Drop-In Visits and Walks: I offer drop-in services for pets of all kinds whether they're furry, feathered, scaled, etc. I’m also happy to water your plants during drop ins! For walks, I can take your pet(s) on a specific route or just explore your neighborhood with them! For boarding and house sitting, drop-off and pick-up, times can be scheduled anytime between 7 am and 9 pm. There are days where I can make exceptions though so don't be afraid to ask me! If your pup gets picked up more than 4 hours after the drop off time, you will be billed for one day of daycare ($30). E.g., If you were to drop your pup off at 8 am on Friday and pick up after 12 pm on Sunday you would be billed for an additional $30 for day care. I look forward to meeting both you and your furry friend(s) and can ensure that they will be safe, happy, and loved while you're away! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Reviews
Lindsey is very sweet and thoughtful. I felt very safe leaving her with Nimble!
Amazing as always
Lindsey is OUR favorite and our kids LOVE her!! It is very obvious that they are well cared for and so is our place. As long as she’s sitting furbabes, she will be our go to. She’s simply the best.
Lindsey was great! I booked on short notice, so we didn't have time for a meet-and-greet before I booked, but Lindsey was great about asking questions and confirming expectations in advance via text. Lindsey was terrific with communication during her stay at my place as well. She sent me substantive updates regularly. When an issue came up with my dog (through no fault of Lindsey), she texted me with all the relevant info right away. I gave her instructions on how to handle it and she followed them to a T. Stuff happens with dogs and I really appreciate that I can trust Lindsey to alert me promptly in a clear, complete manner. Also, when I arrived home, my dog wasn't any more excited to see me than he is when I come back from getting the mail, so Lindsey clearly satisfied his emotional needs, which is no small feat!

Safety, trust & environment
When your dog stays with me you can expect photo and text updates of your furry friend. For active pups, I try to go on longer walks to neighborhood parks. If your dog is fine with car rides, I love taking them on little field trips to areas around Seattle like Discovery Park, Green Lake, the waterfront pathway, and Volunteer Park. Your pets safety and comfort is my number one priority so you can count on me adhering to any and all details that you share with me (e.g. feeding times, routines, interactions with other people and dogs when out and about, etc) If you have any specific requests, just ask when booking and I will let you know if I’m able to accommodate.
Information Lindsey F. would like to know about your pet
Before watching your pet a few questions I always ask are: * What is your pets usual routine? When do they get fed and when do they get walked? * Does your pet have the tendency to chew things (aside from their toys)? * Is your pet fully house trained? Do you use pee pads? * Does your pet have the tendency to bark and whine while you're away? * Are their any commands your dog knows or behaviors you would like me to reinforce/reward? I want to make sure I can care for your pet the same way you would! This helps me ensure that they're comfortable, safe and happy while they're away from you :)
A typical day
I try to maintain your pets regular routines as much as possible when they’re in my care. That being said, my typical routine when caring for pets is a walk around 8 am, 12 pm, 5 pm, and a potty break before bed. I very much try to assess your pets wants and needs throughout the day, whether that means letting them have some space and take a nap or some play time and attention. Feeding schedules are always kept the same when possible.
Services
Lindsey can watch in your home
Availability
I go into the office for work typically 3 days per week and WFH 2 days per week. I do try to coordinate my WFH days with days I am watching a pet, whenever possible. If your pet is unable to be at home, inside for up to 8 hours per day, we may not be a good fit for one another, but this totally depends on the day so please feel free to ask about any limitations when booking. During the weekend and typically Fridays, I'm able to be home most of the day with your pets and take them out as frequently as you (and your pet) like!
