Availability

As a full-time pet care professional, I understand the importance of flexibility. I work from home and can accommodate your schedule, ensuring that your furry friend is taken care of even if you’re running late, unable to make it home for lunch, or staying late at work one evening. While I may occasionally have errands, dog walks, or cat check-ins, I prioritize being home and loving on my furry friends.

Information Lynn R. would like to know about your pet

It’s super important that your furry friend feels at ease around me. I really enjoy taking my time to let them get to know me as well as they get to know me! I do have some clients who, unfortunately, can’t bring their pets to a dog kennel because of anxiety or aggression. But, with regular visits, they’ve learned to trust me, and we have a blast playing in the comfort of my home! I adore all dogs, big or small! I’ve had clients weighing from 3 lbs to 140 lbs! From a toy golden doodle named Indi to a Great Dane named Colossus!

A typical day

I have a spacious fenced-in backyard with a covered porch, providing ample shade for your pup to play in on sunny, warm days. As well as a few kiddy pools for them to cool off for those crazy pups. The backyard also transforms into a playground for my pets once they’re unleashed. There are plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and it’s not uncommon for your pup to return home exhausted from all the fun.

OVER 25 YEARS OF VETERINARY SERVICE

Pet care experience

I’ve dedicated over 25 years to the field of veterinary medicine. As a single parent, I decided to embark on a new journey and establish my own business, providing comprehensive pet care services. This decision allows me to spend more quality time with my now 17-year-old twin boys. My passion for animals has also been passed down to my children, creating a loving, joyful, and occasionally hairy household! With over 8 years of experience in pet sitting, both at home and in clients’ homes, I’ve honed my skills in various aspects of pet care. Beyond pet sitting and walking, I offer a range of additional services. If your furry friend requires a visit to the veterinarian or a grooming session, I’m more than happy to pick them up and either drop them off or stay with them during their appointment. Additionally, if you need pet supplies, simply text me the list, and I’ll conveniently pick them up and deliver them to your doorstep. I also specialize in caring for exotic pets, having years of experience feeding, medicating, and providing care for birds, fish, ferrets, rabbits, reptiles, snakes, frogs, and more. You name it, I’ve likely had the pleasure of caring for it! I’m here to assist you with any of your companions’ needs. Rest assured, my business is fully insured, so any unforeseen circumstances during your pet’s stay will be covered. I have a spacious fenced-in backyard with a covered porch, providing ample shade for your pup to play in on sunny, warm days. As well as a few kiddy pools for them to cool off for those crazy pups. The backyard also transforms into a playground for my pets once they’re unleashed. There are plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and it’s not uncommon for your pup to return home exhausted from all the fun. I suggest we have a meet and greet at my place before their first stay so you and your pup can get a feel for where they’ll be staying and I can answer any questions you may have. During this time, I’ll put the other dogs away so your pup can explore freely and get comfortable with my home and surroundings, both inside and out.

Lynn goes above and beyond and clearly loves what she does. Absolutely recommend with no hesitation. Reliable, funny, kind, and has a great environment for our very energetic Australian Cattle Dog.

Lynn was amazing! It was my first time using a dog sitter and not only did she ease my mind but provided amazing care for my dog who has anxiety. She provided many updates and pictures. I will be using Lynn in the future. :)

Lynn was INCREDIBLE with Pebble! This is a dog with a ton of anxiety who does not like new people and cowers/whines nonstop whenever she is left with friends she knows WELL. Lynn managed to coax some tail wags out of Pebble and spent a lot of time with her outside where she felt more comfortable resting. She sent a lot of pictures and videos where I could see Pebble responding to her and coming to her for comfort. The level of communication was a huge relief and this was the least stressed Pebble’s human parents have ever been on a trip!
