Exceptional care for your fur kids
Pet care experience
I have experience with breeds of all sizes from Chihuahua to Saint Bernard. I used to run a rescue and foster so I have plenty of experience with harder to handle pets and behavioral issues as well. I have worked at a boarding/grooming/training facility in the past and have many references. I have 4 house dogs of my own and all of them are very social and friendly toward other pets. I also have an indoor/outdoor kennel facility where we house our breeding dogs. Our breeding dogs have no access to dogistting dogs for biohazard reasons. Your pets will also never be out in the kennel facility. My father lives with us and he has 3 dogs of his own as well. We show and breed as well as attend agility, barn hunt, fast CAT and a few other dog sports as well. We have 2 children ages 7 and 12. They are very respectful of dogs. Your pets will be treated as part of the family and will not be left locked up like if they were in a boarding facility. We have 3 acres of land, 2 acres of which is enclosed with an underground fence.. if you are not ok with us using the underground fence we do have a few different options we can use for outside time or a cable tie out. Please let us know if you have any questions or would like to set up a meet and greet. Unfortunately due to some health issues I can no longer care for large dogs. I am still accepting past clients large dogs since we are familiar with them and know how to handle them but regrettably I cannot risk new clients for large breeds or hard to handle dogs. Look forward to meeting your pups. I work at a dairy farm milking cows. I work mon-fri 4:30am to 12:30pm (sometimes off earlier if we get done early and don't have extra things to do). My father leaves for work at 10:45am so the longest span nobody is home is from 10:45-12:45. He works Sun-Wed. I spend most of my day caring for the dogs and cats. I do also work 7:30pm to 1am on Friday nights and every other Saturday. My father is off Fridays and Saturdays so those days someone is always home unless he runs to the store or has an appointment. My boyfriend Kenny is a truck driver so his schedule varies each week. We try out hardest to stick to the routines you tell us your pet is used to. The more information you give us about your pet and their daily routines the better.
Reviews
Does a great job watching our girls!
My dog had a great time with Lindsey and her family. Lindsey was great about sharing photos and shared updates regularly. I would recommend Lindsey for any of your dog-sitting needs!
Lindsey was great with our senior pup!
Bella was just 4 months old when she stayed with Lindsey. Lindsey was so good with her. Very understanding and patient with four month old puppy behavior. Her experience and knowledge was very apparent and appreciated. She even offered to watch Bella again! I will definitely take her up on the offer!

We have an invisible electric fence. If your dogs are not accustomed to that we can walk them on leashes, use a tie out, or we also have a small outdoor kennel that can be used as an outdoor play area.

Information Lindsey H. would like to know about your pet
Due to us breeding, we do require all pets to be UTD on vaccinations and require proof. Flea free is a MUST. Our animals are on a flea preventative but one of our dogs has a very bad reaction if bitten by a flea so we are unable to care for pets with fleas. If your pet is not friendly with children or animals please let me know ahead of time and we will accommodate you. We have 2 young children who are very used to animals but we appreciate any behavioral issues be mentioned before the stay is booked. Behavioral issues are not an issue, I have experience with nearly every problem.
A typical day
Your pets will become part of our family during their stay. If you allow them on furniture, they are allowed on ours. If your dog is used to sleeping on the bed, it can do so here ad long as they get along with our pets. We do not cage unless necessary or recommended by the client.

Availability
I work for a dairy farm early in the morning and am home before 1pm. My father and boyfriend both work during the day so there's only a short overlap where nobody is home so the dogs are rarely left alone
