Pet care experience

Care and Compassion for Companions!

With 20+ years of experience from my first rabbits and turtles to large breed dogs, I am here to love and care for your pet when you need someone to love them as you would. I am a dog-mom (married to a Dog-Dad) to the loves of our lives, Waffle, a calm Beagle and Millie, our rescue mutt. Both our dogs are friendly and playful. Our experience working with trainers to help Millie with some anxiety, allowed us to learn a unique skill set which will help us to help dogs with anxiety, specifically. Through years of training and experience with our pups, we have learned how to keep dogs of all types and temperaments and those around them safe and happy. If you need someone who is comfortable with a wide variety of dogs with or without behavioral differences, we are here for you!

Lyndsay was great! Zoey was treated like family and spoiled everyday! Perfect fenced in yard to run and play. Communication was excellent and daily updates including pictures of our happy dog. Would leave Zoey with her again when the need arises!

Lyndsay is the best! We felt completely at ease during our trip because Lyndsay provided plenty of daily updates with photos and videos. She truly understands that every dog is different and reads their body language so well. Her husband was also wonderful with our dogs, and before the stay, they both took the time to ask about our routines and house rules to help maintain consistency and good behavior. All three of our dogs are rescues with different traumas and triggers, but when we returned after three nights and four days, they were wagging their tails at Lyndsay and her husband—clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for. They loved spending time in the yard, getting treats, attention, and lots of gentle affirmation from both of them. Their home is perfect for dogs—lots of cozy lounging spots, a fully fenced and well-maintained yard, and two friendly, well-mannered resident dogs, Waffle and Millie. Communication was always easy and timely. Lyndsay also went above and beyond with safety—she kept our dogs’ GPS collars charged and made sure they were always wearing them outside, and she followed all our harness and leash instructions carefully. If they’re available, Lyndsay and her family will always be our first choice. They truly get dogs—their personalities, needs, histories, and quirks.

We had such a wonderful experience with Lyndsay as our pet sitter! From the moment we met her a few days before our trip, we felt completely at ease leaving our dog, Damon, in their care. She took the time to get to know him and were attentive to his individualized needs throughout his stay. Lyndsay gave us daily updates and sent pictures, which made us feel even more comfortable while we were away. It was clear from the photos and messages that Damon was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and relaxed. He’s a high-energy dog, and it was fantastic that he had dog companions to play with, as well as plenty of exercise and stimulation. Lyndsay even played frisbee and ball with him—two of his favorite activities! What stood out most was how thoughtful and communicative they were. They always checked with us before making any decisions about Damon, and included him in their daily outings, which he loved. We could tell he was treated like part of their family. We’re so grateful to have found Lyndsay and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter.

Lyndsay is kind and patient with dogs. She attends well to their needs and to the wishes of their owners. Her first priority is safety.

Lyndsay R. has years of experience caring for dogs and is a true dog lover. She can't let a dog go by that walks past her house without here saying hello. She knows a lot about how to care for dogs and is the gentlest dog owner I have ever known. She is very responsible and reliable and always has the well being of the dog in mind. I can happily recommend Lyndsay to walk dogs for Rover..

Safety, trust & environment

We have two friendly dogs of our own and they're the center of our lives. Our pets spend their days with us like children would. They are free to roam our house and fully fenced yard at their leisure. Our dogs sleep with us at night or we have comfy crates which can be left open or closed if your dog is more comfortable in their own space. We have lots of comfy lounge spots around the first floor for the dogs to lounge. Plenty of space to play in the half-acre yard as well.

Pets

A typical day

Pups who come to play and stay will enjoy a half acre yard full of balls and toys. If the weather is no good, we have a 2100sq foot house to play in! They'll have two adults and two friendly pups to play with, or if they prefer quiet or independent time, we have a private gated off living room where your pup can enjoy 1:1 time with one of us. We also have a deck and a screen porch to lounge on.
