Pet care experience
Pet Care at the FrenchFry Inn!
Hello everyone! My name is Lyndsay, and I’ve been working with animals for over 20 years. I grew up on a three-acre ranch surrounded by just about every animal you can imagine—dogs, cats, horses, turtles, fish, a rabbit, a guinea pig, a rat, and even a frog. My lifelong passion for animals began early, and at just 15 years old I landed my first job at a petting zoo. That experience led me to Petsmart, where I worked for over three years as a Petcare Specialist and Groomer, caring for pets, administering medications, and grooming canine clients. After college, I continued my journey in animal husbandry by volunteering with several dog rescues, the Marine Mammal Center, and the Santa Ana Zoo. Over the years, I’ve cared for animals of all kinds—from rodents and reptiles to everything in between—gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of species and needs. While my life is a bit more structured these days as I run my own fully work-from-home business, animals remain a central part of my world. I’m an active member of the local dog community, belong to several dog social clubs, and help foster rescues whenever possible. I’ve also opened my home to many rescue animals of my own, including baby birds, opossums, and dogs with complex health conditions, and I’m well-versed in managing diverse medical and dietary needs.

Safety, trust & environment
All dogs will remain within my oversight throughout the day while they are interacting with each other. I am well trained in dog behavior and body language. I separate all dogs into their own space when it's time for feedings, and during "nap time", giving all our guests time to decompress throughout the day. Bowls, bedding and flooring will be washed nightly to prevent germs from spreading. In the off chance that I need to leave the house for a few minutes, I will secure all dogs in their own crates, turn on soothing music, and watch them from my security cameras. Rest assured that your dogs will be in a comfortable and safe environment.
Ratings and reviews
Lyndsay is one of the most dedicated, loving caregivers for animals. She goes out of her way to ensure that pets are healthy, loved and given the opportunity to play and have fun.
Lyndsay is well-versed in everything about pets, in particular with behavior and their wellness. She helps pets socialize by taking them to events, outdoors for hikes and beach days, and more. Even my introverted chihuahua takes to her. He is willing to stay with her and her personal pets. She is attentive to his needs, probably more than me!
Lyndsay is the kind of person who loves animals with every fiber in her being. The love she has for animals is evident in the way she cares not just for her dogs but for other people’s pets. She always makes sure they are well taken care of, loved and happy.
Lyndsay was an excellent caregiver to my senior cat, Princess, while I was traveling. Due to renal failure, Princess needed special care at specific times that Lyndsay managed perfectly. She kept me updated on how Princess was doing and even sent photos so I could see my little fur baby. I couldn't be more thankful for the peace of mind I had during that trip, knowing someone who loves animals as much as I do was looking after my cat. I truly admire Lyndsay's sense of integrity and her love for animals.
I can't say enough good things about the care and attention Lyndsay takes with her's and any dogs in her care! From the moment you meet them, it's clear how much she genuinely loves and understands dogs. She is patient, attentive, and incredibly responsible, always making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. She takes the time to understand every dog's unique personality, routines, and needs-whether that means extra playtime, gentle reassurance, or sticking closely to feeding and exercise schedules. I always have peace of mind knowing every dog in her care is not just being watched, but truly cared for like family. Knowing her experience with working at PetSmart gives me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and compassionate dog caregiver.
Lyndsay is a huge animal lover! My pets have thrived under Lyndsays care when we’ve gone away on trips. She is experienced in animal care and has owned a large variety of pets. Dogs, cats, fish, birds, small mammals and reptiles are all in her area of expertise. Her compassion towards animals and attention to detail makes her the perfect person to watch any kind of pet. Rest assured if your pet is with Lyndsay they will receive extra love and care.
