I've never lived without a dog!

Pet care experience

Let me start by saying that I absolutely love dogs! My husband and I specifically picked our apartment complex because they had just built a wonderful dog park. That was one of our top priorities for our very active dogs! I have lived with dogs since birth and have no issues giving love and attention/administering medicine, rewards and/or discipline (should the family specify disciplinary actions). I am actually a behavioral therapist for children which I have found to help in the training with my dogs. I am more than happy to work with dogs in terms of training them on some basics like sit, stay, lay down, roll over, give paw, etc. I am happy to show my dogs doing these things and more :)

Lynette is so wonderful! She lets me know when she gets to my house, sends me about five pictures of Sterling and even my cats! She's protective of my keys and figured out a way to lock up and slide the key back under the door. She's prompt and will stay long enough to make sure Sterling does what he needs to do. He looks so happy in all the pictures she sends. She's so sweet and takes good care of my animals and apartment!

Go use Lynette for your pet sitting needs. She was super responsive and sent updates while we were away. I will book her again next time I need a pet sitter.

Lynette was a life saver! Not only did she follow up with me when I mistakenly messaged her (thank God I did) , but she was AWESOME throughout the whole experience. We had a family emergency and had to go out of the country so I was frazzled and having our doggies taken care of was also a huge worry. Lynette helped take care of them and keep our worries at bay when it came to our doggies. They both enjoyed their stay with Lynette and her hubby and doggies so much, that when we picked them up, they were not frazzeled like they normally are when we have left them before for an extended time. We are forever grateful!

Lynette was a great dog sitter! She was easy to communicate with and provided pictures and updates of my pup’s stay. I would recommend her to a friend!

Information Lynette E. would like to know about your pet

There are no breed preferences in our home - all dogs welcome. I just want to be sure that any dogs we bring in are friendly-ish with other dogs - like my dogs - and if they have any potty training needs/are in heat. My dogs love other dogs, but can be moved to different areas of my home if need be for either family's comfort. My dogs are neutered and spayed so there is no issue there! My dogs also have their own section of our apartment which we call their "home" and can be put there if they don't seem to get along with another dog (this hasn't happened before, but they respond well/change their behaviors to the consequence of home)

A typical day

First and foremost, your dog(s) will get a ton of love and attention! Also, your furry family member(s) will go on walks around a fairly large lake and through a small foresty area. They can also play in a medium sized dog park with lots of toys and activities. I am open to whatever you would prefer. My dogs love both! Fetch is one of the favorites in our home, but we also have some doggy puzzles (ex. get the treat out of the strange ball with weird shaped holes) that can be fun as well!
