Pet care experience

Friendly Neighborhood dog watcher

Hi! I’m Lyndsey and I was a veterinary technician for 4 years, but have been dog sitting full time for the past 3+ years. I also have my own licensed dog boarding business, and do Rover on the side when I have availability! My husband and I live in Athens,TN. We have about 5 acres of land fenced in. We love getting to meet all kinds of different dogs, and having them interact with my kids. I’m home pretty much all the time so I never have to crate unless they sleep in one at night. I have clients that have been returning since 2019. I have 2 little girls, and all the dogs I’ve watched have been great with them! During all of the stays for the dogs I watch I provide homemade treats, and toys to play with. I hope to watch your fur baby real soon! ❤️ So I’m available any weekend or weekday to dog sit your sweet fur babies! I will make sure they are in great hands! Look forward to meeting new clients! I’m able to administer any medications you may need for your fur baby!

Boarding • Jul 16, 2026

Highly recommend!! I have a 4 month old lab that can sometimes be a handful, but Lyndsey was very gentle and patient with her. Her rates are very reasonable, and she isprovided a friendly, family environment that Lucy seemed to be comfortable in from the moment we arrived. Lyndsey always responded to my texts promptly, and frequently sent me updates and pictures which was very comforting since it was my first time ever using a border. She was also extremely understanding when traffic delays caused me to be several hours late picking Lucy up on her first visit. I will definitely use her for future trips.

We are so happy we found Lyndsey and her family to watch our puppy while we went on our first trip away! Lyndsey was so easy to communicate with and sent us a short message/picture every day, which helped us have peace of mind while being gone multiple days! Lyndsey will definitely be our first choice anytime we need to have a place for our dog to stay!!

Lyndsey was excellent! She adjusted her schedule twice last minute to help, and responded quickly every time. Highly recommend!

Doggy Day Care • Jun 23, 2026

Lyndsey and her kids were wonderfully sweet to my dog while I visited a tourist attraction. She was very prompt in all of our communications and understanding when I mistook a time zone difference! Lyndsey has a lot of experience and I highly recommend her for your pets needs!

Schedule

I’m currently home 24/7 unless I have doctor appts, or have to run a few errands. So your dog wouldn’t ever need to be crated unless you have them sleep in one at night. I can also admin meds if they require to have any during the day.
