Dog Walker and Animal Caretaker
Pet care experience
I ONLY service, Highland Falls, Fort Montgomery and West Point, NY. I do NOT service outside of these 3 territories. I will NOT take bookings outside of these three areas. I do this full time and my schedule doesn’t allow me to accommodate outside of my territory. With 23 years local experience, I am very dedicated, passionate and committed to my profession. I am a full-time Dog Walker and Animal Caretaker. Within the last month I joined Rover and have operated my business solely word of mouth up to this point. I take bookings all hours and days of the week. Over the years, I have cultivated clients that truly have become family to me. Your animal gets cared for and treated with the same love, care and attention that you yourself would provide for them. My experience has ranged from dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, farm animals, exotic animals and much more. When it comes to animals that are large breeds, disabled and/or have temperament issues I have a ton of experience.
Reviews
I've had the absolute pleasure of entrusting my beloved pets to Lindsey, a remarkable dog walker and pet sitter whose dedication and love for animals shines brightly in everything she does. From the first day we met, Lindsey's warmth and professionalism made me feel completely at ease, knowing that my furry family members were in the safest and most caring hands. Lindsey possesses a rare combination of patience, intuition, and energy that seems to resonate well with every animal she encounters. She doesn't just 'walk' or 'sit' with pets; she connects with them, understands their needs, and ensures they feel loved and secure in her presence. Her attention to detail is exemplary, always going above and beyond to cater to the specific dietary, exercise, and emotional needs of each pet. What truly sets Lindsey apart is her ability to communicate effectively with pet owners, providing thoughtful updates and adorable photos, which has been a source of comfort and joy for me. Her flexibility and willingness to accommodate last-minute requests have been invaluable, demonstrating her commitment to the well-being of the pets in her care and the peace of mind of their owners. Lindsey's passion for animals is evident in the way she speaks about her experiences and her eagerness to learn and grow in her profession. Her knowledge of pet health, behavior, and safety precautions is impressive, providing an educational aspect to her service that I have greatly appreciated. In summary, Lindsey is not just a dog walker or pet sitter; she is a cherished member of our family. Her dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals have made her an indispensable part of our lives. I cannot recommend her services highly enough to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets as if they were her own. Thank you, Lindsey, for everything you do - you are truly one of a kind!
Lindsey has been our pet sitter for over 5 yrs. We can not say enough about her. She is totally reliable, dependable and responsible for your fur babies. She treats them as if they were her own. When we are away for long periods of time she sends up daily updates and photos so we can see how everyone is doing. Lindsey also which we consider a bonus has our house as clean or cleaner when we come home. No dishes in the sink, dog bowls are clean, dogs have fresh water, and NO garbage in the can. Lindsey treats our home and our fur babies as if it were her own. We do not have to worry when we are away how things are going as we know (we get pictures) they are in good hands with Lindsey. I would recommend her to anyone who truly loves their pet and wants them to be in safe hands.
Lindsey is very attention oriented when walking Harley. I live in a heavy traffic area which she has to walk over major roads to get to his favorite spots. His eyes light up when he see her coming. I have never come home to an accident or have ever had an issues with Harley after his time with her. If she notices something she will leave a note letting me know to keep an eye on it.

Safety, trust & environment
Consistency is key, and I find it best not to alter their daily and nightly routines. I want them to feel comfortable and relaxed while you are away. If I stay in your home, I treat your home as if it was my own. Just like your pet, I provide the same level of care for your home without judgment. You come home to it being clean, neat and tidy. I wash the sheets, take out the garbage and recycling, sweep/vacuum and wipe down all surfaces that I used. I also bring in packages, water indoor plants, move garbage and recycling bins to the road and small and/or minor request are usually accepted. In the spring and summer months, I will water outdoor plants, but inquire about additional cost.
