Cat owner who loves dogs too!
Pet care experience
I have owned at least one cat constantly for the past 30 years. My family currently has a 7 yr old, a 2 yr old and a 6 month old kitten. Our cats are extensions of the family, treated and spoiled just like my child, cherished into old age, and never discarded. My daughter has grown up with a 70 lb Australian Shepard (unfortunately lost her to liver cancer at 12 years and still miss her 2 years later). I have fostered all ages of cats/kittens and dog/puppies (not at the same time!) but are not currently fostering.
Reviews
10/10 recommend! Lynn did such a great job taking care of my kitty! She kept me updated on how she was doing and was great at keeping up with her medication schedule.
Lynn did an amazing job taking care of my babies. She gave them lots of attention and love. She was very good at keeping me up to date with what's going and was flexible with her schedule. I can't say enough great things and highly recommend anyone book with her. I absolutely will rebook when overnight care is needed again.
Lynn was fantastic for our kitty! She was awesome with communication and very responsive. She is flexible and willing to work with you. She has a genuine love for animals and we could tell that by how she loved our a dog that she wasn’t even pet sitting for when she came to meet our kitty! We highly recommend her!
Everything was great!

I do have the ability to house four-legged visitors away from resident cats (if necessary - but I would rather they roam the house freely if possible, just like they were one of the resident cats). I do allow our cats on the furniture/beds but not on tables/countertops. I will do my best to maintain your specific house rules while in my house (meaning, if you tell me that you do not allow your dog on the bed, then I will enforce a no-bed rule so that unwanted behaviors are not learned while under my care. My cats utilize automatic feeders for all meals, but your animal will not have access to these, and will be fed on your given schedule. I do not follow a specific potty schedule, but will never leave your animal for more than 4-6 hours. If you have a schedule that you need us (your dog/cat and I) to follow, please let me know, I do not want to cause unnecessary accidents that could untrain your puppy/dog.

Information Lynn H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your animal has any special quirks that might confuse/scare me and, therefore, might be helpful for me to know in advance (for example: my family once had a dog that sounded like a motorcycle when she snored, she would also “backfire” when she passed gas).
A typical day
I have a decent sized fenced back yard, with direct access to a huge greenbelt, and your dog will have access to a small kiddie pool for water fun (when the temperature is appropriate for outside play). I have numerous balls and toys (cat and dog) for inside play, along with multiple cat trees and pet beds to just hang out Animals will not be allowed to sleep overnight in my child’s bedroom.

Availability
I work from home and have a large fenced in yard, attached to a greenbelt for in-home visitors. There are ample litter boxes for cats, and I have plenty of down time from work to walk and play with any/all visitors. For day visits and walks, I do have the availability to leave home throughout the day. And will often have my daughter with me in the evenings. Your dog will stay on-leash and in my control the entire time we (your dog and I) are out of your/my house, except when we (your dog and I) are in a secured doggy park/area. I will gladly enforce any rules that you have in place for your animal (not allowed on the bed, avoid other animals, feed separately, etc). Please just let me know what needs to be done for your animal’s comfort and safety.
