Dependable Lover of Fur Babies

Pet care experience

My mission is to care for your precious fur babies as if they are my own so that you can enjoy your time away from home. With over 25 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I can ensure that your vacation or workday will be entirely free of stress and worry. As a self-employed editor who works at home, my flexible schedule means that your pet gets the attention they need when they need it. Currently, I have one dog of my own, a sweet and playful 6-month-old golden retriever named Meli who is always accepting of new friends. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have also owned 3 cats in my life, including a diabetic one. I can't wait to meet your pets!

Thank you Lynn for taking Sophie on her walk! I'm sure she loved it.

Lynn always makes sure our shy kitty is coaxed out from her hiding places for pets and attention while we are away!

Lynn checking in on our kitty (who is recuperating from an injury) gave us great peace of mind.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm home most of the day and able to let pups out every 2-4 hours. I love having the pups at my side all day with the exception of a quick trip to the grocery store in the afternoons or early evenings. At my house I have a crate available to keep dogs safe while I'm away briefly. I also have a friendly golden retriever who is always down for a couple of quick play sessions during the day in between rests. My day job does occupy most of my time 8-5, but in the evenings I love to get active by talking a long walk, playing some fetch, or learning some new tricks.

Information Lynn K. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know if your pet gets along with other dogs, since I have a sociable golden retriever. Please let me know if they are crate trained, engage in resources guarding, are escape artists, or excessive barkers.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs mentally and physically. Everyday we go for long walks or runs, usually in the evening. Since I recently got a new puppy, I've brushed up on my training skills and enjoy teaching new tricks. A good game of fetch also never gets old!

Availability

I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule during the week. I'm generally available for walks and drop-in visits Monday to Friday until 6PM and am around most weekends. I tend to keep things pretty chill until 5 or 6PM wit a couple of intervening play or training sessions and am most engaged with my pets in the evening when we go out for a long walk or run around the local park. I'm a home body by nature and enjoy hanging out with pups every evening.
