Dogs make me wag my tail.

Pet care experience

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 is not just a great Rover sitter; she is an amazing person. Our beloved Italian greyhound, London, was managing an immune-mediated health condition that worsened before going into kidney failure in the days leading up to her stay with Lynn. We were still hoping that she would recover until the morning of her drop-off, but sadly, she didn't make it, and we had to say goodbye to her on March 6th. We didn't expect a refund, and we were at the vet's office when I texted Lynn to cancel and inform her of London's passing. Lynn responded with the kindest message and the most comforting words, and she immediately took care of canceling everything on our behalf. We couldn't have asked for a more compassionate or supportive response from anyone in that moment. Although London never got the chance to stay with Lynn, we know she would have been in great hands, and we are grateful to have met Lynn. We will never forget her kindness during one of the most difficult losses we have ever experienced.

This is our second time our dog stayed with Lynn. She is very responsive and great with him. While we were away on vacation, I feel relieved that someone as great as Lynn is taking care of Kirby. Would love to book her again next time!

This was our first time using Rover and what an absolute amazing experience with Lynn. It was our first time leaving our 6 month old standard poodle with anyone and we were definitely wondering how it would go for the 4 days we were away. We did not worry even once while we were gone. Lynn is a dog expert!! She was extremely communicative and sent pictures daily. Our dog had the best time and probably didn't even want to come home with us! Drop off and pick up were a breeze. We will definitely be using Lynn again.
