Dog sitter/rabbit sitter in truckee
Pet care experience
Hi I’m Lindsey and I’m located in Glenshire. I’m a huge animal lover and I have 2 female labs and 4 bunnies. I’m looking to help out any neighbors around truckee or Tahoe city kings beach with their pets. I can’t take any cats but I can either watch your dogs in my home or your home. My bunnies are caged and are very sweet. I do drive I take my dog’s out all the time in the snow. I’m studying for vet assisting online so I do have experience with animals. I’m safe very loving and caring with other peoples pets. I know how to give meds. I’m fine watching big breeds or small dogs. I enjoy taking dogs swimming in the summer. Also your dog must be non aggressive around rabbits. I do bunny sitting if anyone has a rabbit. I do have a big fenced yard.
Reviews
Seemed like a true animal lover, but very poor, rude, confusing communication and did not seem fit to take dogs in her own home. If your pet is not used to being around bunnies or other small animals that would over excite them or interest them to chase, this is not the right fit for your pet. A simple solution would have been to separate the dog from the bunnies, but instead I had to scramble from across the country to have an emergency contact go pick up my dog. Once he was home in safe care, I asked to be refunded for the nights cut short that she did not care for him, she initially refused to return my money due to personal circumstances (without even considering mine) and I was forced to escalate to Rover support. I left two stars because I should have insisted on a meet and greet and more background on the situation I was leaving my baby in. I’ve left my almost 9 year old dog with a variety of sitters and boarding facilities over the years and have never had any issues or complaints. My recommendation is to do a deep screening and meet and greet(s) if you choose to leave your dog in this woman’s care.
I've known Lindsey all her life. Dogs are her passion. She is the most loving and compassionate person I know. She cares for her dogs as if they her babies and she will treat others with the same respect as her own. There isn't many people that are willing to invite other dogs into their own homes as their own, like Lindsey. She is truly a blessing to be able to care for your beloved pet. Her home is fenced with a wonderful yard, a park nearby, a full of loving interaction, while you are away!
The dogs were healthy and happy when I picked them up. When I got home and opened their dog food box, a bowl was mising and one was chewed all up. I had to purchase 2 more as I was leaving town. I asked to be reimbursed for the $23 and was told her puppy and young dog wouldn't have chewed the bowl and i should come back and pick up the bowl she forgot to put in the food box. My dogs are 11 and 9. They're no longer chewers and have had the bowls all their lives. It boggles my mind that customer service wasn't a part of this stay. Ridiculous.
It's really hard to find a good dog sitter that you trust. Lindsey is very prompt with text messages, and provides updates on a regular basis. It's these types of things that allow people with animals to take vacations without worrying. Thanks Lindsey!
