Pet care experience

Dogs make me wag my tail.

Red Cross CPR/First Aid certified for humans & fingerprinted. Grew up in a family that brought home the strays. Have had dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, fish, reptiles, birds and I can't leave out my garden friends: Cardinals, Blue Jays, Doves, Finches, Wood Peckers and Squirrels. I'm also a tree hugger! Everybody is treated as family. Full run of the house (not the wild critters of course). Where we go, they go (except of course if it's a kittah :)). If it's a weekend, they go to Flushing Meadow Park (if you don't mind). During the week, it's the Bayside neighborhood, which is pretty green in itself and filled with friendly neighbors. Will take only one child at a time, unless they're related. I work from home, so I'm here all day. A Block off of Northern Blvd. with plenty of parking. Have a great day ! About this sitter: Passionate animal lover. Coney Island Polar Bear Club, Member North Shore Animal League, HSUS, NWF, Green Chimneys, NRDC, ASPCA, Audubon Society & Pug Rescue group. Canine cancer took my little girl and broke my heart. Only a wet nose can fix it. Why I love dog sitting My parents were animal and nature lovers and passed it on to their children. I have passed it on to mine... Meet my pets Spacious, gated back yard, cooling pad, doggie pool, great neighborhood for walks. There are currently no other furry family members in the home. However, there is Shelly & Tallulah the turtles and Bing & Cloud the naughty parakeets. About my yard Yes, there is a fully fenced-in, L shaped yard. Your baby is allowed the full run of the house. Pictures have been included in the profile. My experience administering medication Yes. Unfortunately, my baby girl who has since passed from cancer, had to be administered medication.

Lynn took wonderful care of our little old spaniel Basil. It was our first time leaving him and we were worried but Lynn sent us frequent reassuring texts and photos showing that he was doing just fine for the two weeks without us. I highly recommend her services!

Lynn was great! She had a nice fenced in yard for my dog to run around in. She even was open to an initial meet and greet which made me feel at ease. She sent daily pics/videos of my dog to out my nerves at ease while I was traveling for work. She was very attentive and always answered texts right away. Would definitely recommend and I will definitely be using her again. Thanks Lynn! -Bailey 🐶Jenn 👱🏻‍♀️

This was my first time using a dog sitter, so I was a bit nervous—but Lynn immediately put me at ease. It’s clear how much she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. She sent daily updates and photos, and I could tell my pups were happy and well cared for. Lynn is very organized, attentive, and thoughtful. I’m so grateful to her for taking such great care of my babies.

Exceptional care!! It was a hassle and tension-free experience for us to leave our little Oreo with Lynn. Highly recommend her.
