“To thine own self be true”

“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.” –Anatole France Love animals and connect with them. Enjoy playing and throwing the ball, taking on walks/hikes. Enjoy just being with them. I have stayed with many dogs/cats through out the years animal sitting in their home. Owners have felt safe leaving their pets with me because of the way they have seen their animals interact with me. I love them like they were my own and give them all the attention they ask for and need. I am compassionate, loving, and kind. "An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language." ― Martin Buber "Some people talk to animals. Not many listen though. That's the problem." ― A.A. Milne

We loved having Lysney watch our dog and house! Our dog was happy, well cared for, and the house looked great when we got home. Super friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with — we’d absolutely use her again!

We had so much apprehension about leaving our 12 year old lab who suffers with anxiety issues. I’m so glad we found Lynsey. She played with him in the evening, took him on adventures appropriate to his age and stage, gave him frequent potty breaks and best of all provided cuddles in the evening. Sent us lots of pictures and updates. She took great care of our beloved Monty as well as our house. Thanks, Lynsey!

WOW!!!! I can't say enough positive things about Lynsey's care of our dogs, cat, fish and house!!! She was wonderfully communicative, flexible, and obviously enjoyed hanging with our critters. We came back to a house cleaner than what we left, and felt so assured for the week that we were gone that our pets and house were well cared for!

Lynsey was incredible with my sensitive and special needs pup. She was very communicative and sent daily updates and pics. She is very concerned and careful about following protocols and schedules and I really appreciate that! She was also left my apartment cleaner than it was when I left so that was an unexpected and much appreciated bonus!!

Lynsey did a great job! So happy was able to leave for the beach and not worry about anything. She was great with communication and with sending pictures. I would happily book Lynsey again!

Lynsey was so good with our dog JuneBug (who is not really a people person). She was very communicative and we felt very safe with her watching over our pup and our home while we were away.
