Animal Enthusiast

Pet care experience

I’ve loved animals since I was little, my mom used to call me Ellie Mae because of my animal obsession. I’ve fostered week old kittens into strong adult cats, and I’ve had about 13 dogs in my entire lifetime. I also used to own various reptiles and rodents. Even some insects! I currently own 5 lovely large dogs, 1 small dog, 2 cats, and pet rats. I’m currently working part time at a pet store, but I am available for 18 hours of the days I DO work! I have pets already so I am constantly on animal care. We have a routine for everyday life, we go outside first thing in the morning, eat breakfast, play, go back outside for a little longer, take a nap, then we go outside once we wake up and come inside for dinner & a movie with cuddles. I have 6 very sweet dogs and 2 cats, one is a little sassy but the other one always welcomes any animal she meets. I do crate most of my dogs at night, they’re young and destructive. I always feed and do most of our walks on a schedule. I do my own grooming, so I can also groom your pets. I also can work on basic training. I spend everyday with my pets already, I work 10 minutes away from home & only work about 6 hours a day. That way, I am always able to be with mine, and your fur-family! I believe our fur babies deserve the most love, especially when they are away from their humans and their home. I have a strong dog who pulls a lot, so I am able to walk dogs easily. I can follow a feeding guide or special care instructions upon your request. Willing to go above and beyond for your fur baby to feel as welcome as possible.

She was very patient with my anxious puppy. This was the first time my lab mix had been away from us for more than a day and it took her a while to open up. Thankfully, Linsey took good care of her and sent me updates each day to let me know how she was doing.

Lindsey was so wonderful with our cats? Our Stella is shy with strangers and tends to hide, so Lindsey made sure she saw her and that she was ok. Lyle fell in love with Lindsey and was always there to greet her. She sent us lots of info and pictures as well. We certainly recommend Lindsey and will book her again!

Information Linsey W. would like to know about your pet

Medication, feeding schedule, any allergies, are they on flea prevention, any special requirements for their daily life, and how well they do on leashes/with other dogs(especially unaltered ones)

A typical day

Sometimes I like to go to the Kanawha state forest for walks, I love making special dog treats, grooming, and watching the dogs play in our kiddie pool. During the winter, we like to lounge inside the warm house and watch Netflix. We go outside often, but as little as possible during the muddy days, sometimes I hand walk them in the less muddy places.
