Pet care experience

Caring, dependable animal lover

I have taken care of my family's pets for 26 years. I just recently lost my dog and am looking to meet new furry friends and help families in need of pet-setting. I have taken care of many neighbors, friends and families' pets, but would love to spend much more time getting to know your beloved pets. I just retired as a Physical Education teacher and coach after 44 years of service to young people, therefore I am ready to dog walk, pet sit and board your furry family pets. I am home every day and have a lot of free time to spend with your pets! I love to spend time outdoors, so your pet would be extremely happy when the weather is nice. I live in a two story home in a very pet friendly neighborhood. The streets are not busy, making dog-walking very safe and easy. I have almost two acres of land...perfect for running around and playing! I look forward to being with your furry friends full time!

House Sitting • Mai 08, 2026

Lyn was a wonderful fit for our family. Our Alvin bonded with her quickly. He looked relaxed and happy in the many images and updates she sent us. One of her best qualities is her quick response time and gift for communication. Our home was clean and taken care of as we would. We would certainly want Lyn again.

My little dog had a great time outside with Lyn today and plenty of love inside before Lyn left. I highly recommend her.

Lyn was warm and welcoming to our pup and took good care of her! We would absolutely leave our dog with her again.

On a rainy day, Lynn bundled my Roxy up and gave her a needed outdoor walk. We are so appreciative for her care.

Lyn deserves more than 5 stars. Judging from the sweet pictures I received, my pup Roxy had a fantastic afternoon with a great walk, treated and lots of love. Lynn is the best.

Lynn is so unbelievably helpful. When I have been unable to get into my account to book her, she has done it for me. She is an awesome sitter so I am grateful to have her with my Roxy. She looks out for everything in caring for my sweet girl.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every clients pet as if they are my own. I give plenty of belly rubs, let them sit with me on furniture and I have a guest suite with a lower bed that I sleep with pets if they wish. They have run of my home. If a parent wants them to sleep in a bed or crate, I honor that as well. We love having pets since we lost our family pet.

A typical day

I am able to walk the dogs in my pet-friendly neighborhood on a safe road. We will spend a lot of time outside or playing in the home. Both my husband and myself are extremely active individuals and love playing with animals.
