Highlights
Pet care experience
Retired sitter ready to help!
I have had pets all my life and absolutely love them. My wife was once an animal technician at the SPCA so our house has been full of pets all our married life! As of now we do not have pets since we travel a bit. I am retired so I am usually home for most of the day. I still have a lot of energy! I love taking dogs out for walks so that isn’t a problem! I prefer dogs that are great on leashes and don’t pull too hard.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I have a very timid 13 lbs poodle mix and they were so perfect with her. Lovely dog sitters and highly recommend them. I will be rebooking with them next time.
I highly recommend this adorable couple as a excellent dog sitter. I'm a very nervous dog mom and Mike and Lynn set me right at ease. They are so sweet, the home they live in is so charming and my dog was so happy with them. They watched my dog a few times and I could tell my dog was so happy to return to them. I will 100% rebook when them next time I come to town.
Mike & Lynne were so kind and helpful when my dogs stayed with them the past few days while I was out of town. They have a lovely home and took amazing care of my dogs. Would recommend!
Very accommodating to my last minute request. They were very sweet to my dog and I and she had fun! She got a good amount of walks and was content when she got home.
Felt so safe leaving my baby in Mike 's hands! He's so friendly and has a loving presence about him! He sent updates and pictures of their day which we really enjoyed! We'll definitely book again if we are in the area!!
Mike and his wife were so friendly and good at communicating. Luna had a fun time with them and we would definitely use them again to watch Luna if we are passing through the area in the future!

Schedule
I love getting my steps in so taking walks is great! Like I said, I am mostly working on music or doing small projects around my house so I am home to give a lot of attention and care to a dog!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Our front yard does not have a gated fence so I will always make sure if your dog goes outside he’s with me and on a leash. S/he are free to roam the whole house with little to no limits on where they can sleep or relax :).
A typical day
I live right across the street from a park in Salinas. Also, being in the Monterey Bay, there are so many great places to walk!
