Your dog's home away from home!

Pet care experience

I have always been an animal lover. Growing up with a variety of pets in my home - birds, guinea pigs, dogs, cats and lizards - I know how much love and care each animal needs and deserves. I would love to provide overnight care for dogs that need a loving, warm, and comfortable home away from home. Nothing beats the unconditional love and support that a dog provides and I would be happy to tend to your dog's individual needs. I have experience working with a variety of breeds, both small and large, puppies and seniors, and those who require daily medication or need special medical care. Whether your dog is a couch potato or an energetic guy, I will be happy to care for your furry friend! >> I am more than happy to accept last minute requests! << PLEASE NOTE: Your dog may be spending some of it's stay at my large family home in the suburbs where they can run around the big, fenced backyard and burrow through our large assortment of pup toys! Your pet will be spoiled with love and attention from every member of my family :) and hang out with other pups that my parents are watching! Why I love dog sitting Growing up with several dogs (Golden Retriever, Yorkshire Terrier, and a Japanese Chin) I can't imagine a life without them! My dogs have been family since we rescued them more than 10 years ago.

Lindsey is the best. My dog Winston took to her literally upon first sight. He has special needs and takes medicine twice a day. She was great about making sure she understood how the medications were taken, which was a huge stress reliever. I loved getting updates and pictures. My dog came home happy (and clearly loved) from his “vacation” with Lindsey. I’d definitely book her again!

Lindsey watches our dog Jax all the time. He loves her and always comes home happy and tired!

Lindsey was fine. Would have preferred unsolicited updates and photos; however, the only time I received anything was after inquiring. Also, my dog did seem sad after picking her up, like she didn’t get much play time.
