My name is Chris and Lynne is a personal friend of mine. While getting to know her I also got to know her dog Waffle, and she got to know my dad's new pup Edwin (who I care for). I could tell by Waffle's behavior and by the way she interacted with Ed that she is exceptionally good at reading and managing dogs, well-behaved or not. So when my dad had knee surgery I asked her to take Ed for 3 weeks. He's a good boy but he was up to 50 pounds and liked to jump up. I worried he'd knock dad over or step on his incision, etc. Basically if you get a knee replacement you have to put your dogs up somewhere for a few weeks. When I asked her if she could help us out she was actually quite excited about it. And needless to say Ed had a great 3 weeks at aunt Lynne's, so much so that his tail starts wagging any time I mention going to see her and Waffle. On top of that I can honestly say Ed came back a more well-behaved dog. She had taught him the word "off" to stop him jumping up, and reenforced the behavior so he would replicate it with my dad and anyone else. And waffle is just the gentlest sweetest boy that ever lived. I'd highly recommend Lynne to anyone in need of a dog sitter or walker.

Lynne is incredible with animals. She has watched our dog, Brady multiple times. He is an older dog that struggles with mobility and incontinence. Lynne helped make sure he was able to get outside for bathroom and exercise. Additionally, she has helped care for a friend’s puppy and worked with him on dog socialization, exercise and puppy training. She will be sure to adhere to your directions. Your pets will be well-loved and much more comfortable than in a mass boarding scenario.
