Retired Registered Nurse loves pets

Pet care experience

Before, during and since raising my children, I have cared for dogs and puppies, as large as Dobermans, Goldens, Carolina dogs. and pitties and as small as Shitzus and Poodles; cats and kittens; rabbits, gerbils, and mice; turtles and fish. I can handle oral, topical meds and insulin injections, and even did the vaccinations of our cats.

Safety, trust & environment

I live alone in a smoke free home. Your pets are family members and I will provide for them as you need, plus with lots of love. Picking up after potty breaks and litter box care are standard tasks. Fresh water each visit, and feed and meds per schedule. Playing, snuggling, or just chilling. Walks and even trips to the park if it is acceptable.

Information Lynda M. would like to know about your pet

What your pet does and DOESN'T like; what specifically you would like me to do for your pet; and what you need me to do that makes you feel secure...I like to take and send pictures.

A typical day

I can accommodate your pets' routine, walks, playing in the yard or playing inside the house, snuggling, or just being a presence. My neighborhood is a great place for walking. Feeding, pottying, treats, meds. are also tasks I can do. I'm not a runner, but can do brisk walks or slow sniffing strolls.
