My Great Dane is 2 weeks from 13 years old. I rarely leave her alone at home. I had long since planned to attend a show in Manhattan. A dog sitter was needed. I chose to drive 2 hours to make train ride shorter and spend a bit more time with Bella. Lynn's son had physical therapy. She asked if it were possible to meet her at the doctors, as meeting her at her house, would likely cause me to miss the train. Conveniently, his appointment was near the train. Unluckily, I would have to say good bye to Bella in another car, not good for an owner, already in full warp panic. Luckily for me, Lynn had my back. We had a nice conversation. She put me at ease as well as could possibly be done. Bella greeted her. It took her no time to lean on Lynn, a sure fire sign that everything would be ok. I met Lynn's son when his appointment ended. He has a terrific energy. He is also extremely respectful. It further helped calm me down. When I arrived around midnight to pick Bella up, she was outside in a huge fenced in area. She was hanging with a couple of other dogs. They were obviously having a good time together, which I assure you is not typical for Bella at her advanced age. It took no time for the garage door to open. Bella immediately came outside. Bella was excited but not in a get me out of here type way, that she has exhibited in the past. Bella had a comfortable stay. That is for sure. Lynn was quick to bring Bella's bed and the treat that Bella did not eat. We talked briefly. I am, like many dog owners, a bit too anxious when it comes to Bella. As I began my long drive home with Bella in back, I had none. If you are a dog owner, in need of a good temporary home for your beloved, I can not recommend Lynn with enough stars. I rarely, give 5 stars for anything, music movies or restaurants. I have no reservation, none, in giving Lynn all 5 of those starts. I now have a reliable 2nd home for Bella. I could not be happier.

Lynne is an animal lover of the first degree. My dog enjoyed the warm atmosphere of her house and the great fenced-in back yard. He was calm and happy when I came to get him.
