I live with my adult daughter, her family, dog,and a kitty. So no working from home for me at this time! Maybe some day it will be possible

Information Lynn B. would like to know about your pet

I am always going to ask when owners are training new pups if they use certain commands, so dog doesn’t get confused. I want to use the same words. I just ask for a meet and greet beforehand, I want them to like me as much as I love them. I am a senior myself, so I may have a lot of questions beforehand Have they had all their shots? it is not necessary with me, I just like to know ahead of time, safety thing. and the possibility of being around other pets... Are they crated? Or roam free? How are they when strangers come into your home? Do they have allergies to anything? I do carry treats. How are they with other dogs? How are they on a leash? Do they pull, and size of the dog? Do you have a fenced in yard? Or a fence collar Is there a behavior you’re working on? Excitement level? do they freak out when they see cats, birds, squirrels, cars, bikes, etc. And last do they have any dislikes, hats, glasses, men, women, kids, other dogs, triggers , I call them. Oh and where does the poop bag go? Lol.

A typical day

I love going to new areas. If your dog likes fetch I do lots of that. I just moved back to this state from the south. Maine is home. I am kind of active as far as dog activity’s I will take them on excursions if I have permission to do so so I can’t transport them. I probably will ask anyway. .

Pets

I so miss having a pet in my care!!

Pet care experience

Please read through my profile important info at end!! I have had a pet all my life. My background is working at a vet/kennel. And as a groomer. I have experience with medication, special needs. The only thing I don’t do is needles it grosses me out so I can’t give injections. I am a senior who caters to seniors. I do others, not just seniors , I love them all. I will do drop in visits mid day for those who may need it. If close enough to my home. I also do walks and of course dog sitting overnight. Let me ease your mind that your fur babies are at home where they should be. I require to always do a meet and greet, all dogs don’t like all people. I can only travel within 30 mins of my job/ home. I am close to I 295. just let me know how far you are from the highway. That helps a lot. Thanks for reading through. I look forward to chatting.

Lynn was clearly committed to Buddy's care, asked questions, and provided updates. Some text messaging could have been more clear.

Lynn was a responsible and reliable sitter for our skittish cat. She communicated regularly and was obviously trustworthy. We came back to a clean environment and a healthy cat! Would absolutely book her again as well as recommend her to anyone to care for their pets. Thanks Lynn !

Lynn took great care to give our pup lots of love during a long housesitting stay and gave regular updates on how she was doing. I also really appreciated that she left the house in great shape!
