Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly and reliable dog lover
I've always been an animal lover and particularly love dogs - of all shapes and sizes! I've had my dog, Buster, for nearly 6 years. Walking, training and looking after him is one of the best things in my life and I love spending time with other dogs. I've recently retrained to become a dog groomer - I'm comfortable with dogs of all temperaments, including nervous dogs. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your best friend, keeping them company when you can't be around and helping when needed.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Fantastic, would highly recommend.
Lindsey was absolutely fantastic with our Gonzalez! She kept us updated and understood Gonzalez' needs and temperament right from the start which really put our minds at ease. She's an extremely experienced dog sitter and Gonzalez loves going to stay with her and Buster - highly recommend to anyone!
Darcey stayed for 5 nights and she settled very quickly thanks to Lindsey and her partner who are clearly very experienced dog sitters. They kept us up to date with photos and messages and we were confident that Darcey was being looked after in the very hot weather. Buster is clearly used to having visitors and he and Darcey got along together - looking forward to the debut album!! We would have no problems recommending Lindsey to anyone
Lindsey and her parttner were great with Darcey, who was very excited to be back after her meet and greet, even at 7.15 in the morning! Will definately be booking Darcey in again for some day care.
Sprout loved her stay with Lindsey and Buster and was happy from the get go! Buster is a calm and sweet dog so was a great pairing. Lindsey was very understanding with Sprout and I felt comfortable leaving her there (:
My dog Daisy stayed with Lindsey for 2 nights which is the longest she has been away from home. Lindsey and her partner are clearly very experienced with dogs and Daisy settled very quickly. They were very proactive in meeting her needs and handling her quirks. Daisy was taken running by Lindsay's partner in the lovely wooded park nearby and the photos they sent me shows a very happy dog. She also went on gentler walks with Lindsey's dog Buster. Daisy came home calm and relaxed which I think is an indicator of a very successful visit. I would definitely recommend Lindsey.

Schedule
I'm fairly flexible as I'm self employed and my partner, Georgina, works from home so if your dog comes to stay, you can feel confident that they will have company and be well looked after all day. Georgina is also a dog-lover and I like to make sure new owners meet her at the meet and greet too (many owners go on to use us both - if I'm ever not available and George is - so its a bit of a 2 for 1!). We walk our dog Buster in Meanwood Park daily (he usually has 2 walks a day but we can be flexible to meet your pooch's needs during their stay!)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have an enclosed garden and live very near to Meanwood park - great for dog walks, either on or off lead. My dog Buster is generally very good with other dogs but I always like to do a meet and greet to make sure both dogs get on ok. Buster tends to find very energetic playful puppies a bit much and unfortunately he doesnt tend to get on well with spaniels.

A typical day
I'd love to hear from you about what your dog enjoys - whether it's play and fetch, mental stimulation and training or a more relaxed time, I'm happy to help!

- It's helpful for me to know if your dog is nervous or reactive of anything, and if you'd like off-lead walking, I want to be sure that their recall is good and consistent. Happy to use tracker apps if you have one too. I ask that all dogs are fully up to date with vaccines, flea and worming treatments before coming to stay.
