Experienced Dog Walker
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Lindsey. In addition to growing up with dogs, and having dogs of my own, I have 5 years of professional animal care experience working in dog daycares, and an animal shelter. I have handled all breeds and sizes of dog, and have dealt with various temperaments and play styles. I love dog behavior, and would love to help your pup with any basic manners and commands, or loose leash walking during my time with them! All through positive reinforcement based methods. I also have a lot of experience with with nervous and reactive dogs, and would love to make sure they get the attention and exercise they need!
Reviews
Lindsey did a great job with my dog, Jack! She really cares about animals and I could tell Jack was happy and had a good time. She made me feel comfortable that my dog was being taken care of while I was at work. Especially since Jack gets anxious.
Lindsey is the only person I will leave my dog with when I have to leave him. She is so great with him, and with any dog I’ve ever seen her with. She has years of experience working with dogs from all kinds of backgrounds and genuinely loves working with and spending time with dogs.
I have known Lindsey for over 3 years now. She is extremely trustworthy and honest. I've also never met someone who loves animals more than her. She has worked at the Petsmart pet hotel and now the Humane Society for years. She is working towards being a certified dog trainer. She has watched / walked my dog countless times. She's the best!

I will come to your home and care for your pup! I will provide play time, enrichment, and pets! I can also take care of feeding and medication (depending on the medicine). If you have a cat I will feed, play, and snuggle them to their heart’s desire. I will also make sure their litter box stays clean.
Information Lindsey G. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know about your dogs preferences for toys and playtime, as well as handling. I would also like to know if your dog has any behavior concerns (reactivity, resource guarding etc) so that I can make sure I’m handling them in a way that keeps both of us safe and comfortable!
A typical day
We’ll play with toys, and do some enrichment games. I love to use puzzle toys and food enrichment to help keep your pup mentally stimulated. We’ll go on walks where your dog can sniff and get some energy out. I would also love to do some training with your dog, so please let me know if there is anything you’d like to work on! All training will be positive reinforcement based.
