Information Lynne D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or characteristics I should be aware of. Knowing if your pets have any limitations or quirky behaviors would also be helpful.

A typical day

I love to walk dogs for long periods of time. Great for larger breed dogs but little guys will get their walk in as well. Your furry family pets will receive lots of attention, love, scratching, petting and singing/reading to ease any stress from your absence. Your fur babies will receive lots of hugs!

You pets will be safe and happy!

Pet care experience

Need extra attention for your fur babies? I not only feed/walk your pets, I read or sing to them after meals/exercise. I spend the time needed to ensure their comfort while you are away. I love both dogs and cats. I grew up with Dachshunds, St.Bernards, Beagles and an Airdale Terrors (not all at one time!). I've also had cats through the years. I have 2 now (lost one in June, 16 years old). All of my cats have been indoor and spoiled rotten! I have helped owners who have been hospitalized, vacationing and working to ensure their furry friends are safe and happy. Rest assured...your pet will be well taken care of. ❤. Why did I decide to do this? When I've traveled, it's been difficult finding reliable sitters or drop in visits. I can assure you, there will be no worrying about your furry family member(s). At your home, your furry family members will be well taken care of. They will receive lots of love and attention. Be sure to instruct me about any special needs. you will receive updates when taking care of your pets.

On a holiday weekend, at the last minute, Lynne jumped into the frail. Showed up without a Meet-n-Greet, and the dogs loved her. Like children with a new babysitter—they were on their best behavior. So all went smoothly and we were allowed to relax and do what we needed to.

Lynne was wonderful with our 3 senior dogs. She stayed overnight and provided excellent care, including updates and photos.

Lynne is amazing and our pup had the absolute best time with her! She's caring and attentive and respectful of guidelines/instructions! I couldn't recommend her highly enough!

Lynne is so kind and patient with my old dog. She's able to gently coax him outside for his much needed walks. Thankful to have her help!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
