If you want complete peace-of-mind during your vacation or trip, hire Linette to take care of your pet! Linette stayed in my home with my dog, Nani during my recent 2+ week vacation. She came a day early so that Nani could get to know her and to become familiar with our routines. Linette was great about letting Nani come to her when she felt ready, as she is a rescue who is a little bit reserved with new people. Linette even came to Petco with us, as Nani has some food allergy issues, and she helped me find a food that is still working well for Nani today! Linette has lots of experience with many different types of dogs, both as an owner and a sitter, and her intuition about what they need to feel comfortable, is spot on! Linette gave Nani the space to get comfortable and come to her, and they were best buddies ever after! Linette sent me texts and photos throughout the time that I was away so that I always felt connected and could see Nani having a good time. Nani got plenty of exercise and companionship. She went on daily walks, occasional easy hikes, outings n the car, and cuddled on the couch. I know Nani bonded with Linette, and I never had a moment's worry while I was away. I knew that if anything unexpected came up, Linette had the maturity and experience to handle it. This is a huge gift and I appreciated it! It allowed me to relax and thoroughly enjoy my vacation! I also noticed that my house was cleaner and tidier after Linette left than when she came! This was an added bonus! She's was respectful of my property and treated my home like her own. I would highly recommend Linette and would love to be able to have her stay with Nani again in the future!
