Pet care experience

Big or small, I love all animals!

Back after a 3 year hiatus! 💖 I love exotic pets! I own 2-9 pet rats at a time, and have cared for rats for the last 9 years. I do regular yearly drop-in visits for a week or two with a couple of ferrets, have boarded three extra pet rats at my apartment for a few days, and have done drop-in visits on a guinea pig. I was the regular caregiver for two different sets of two huskies any time their owners are out of town (including walks, feeding, house visits, housesitting, etc) which I did for a few years until their owners moved away. I helped care for an elderly husky with a skin condition (seborrhea), including frequent and gentle brushes, bathing/scrubbing, and walks (she was a puller!). Previously I have boarded one or two small dogs, including taking them on walks and housing them at my apartment for up to a week. I lived with my aunt for two years, and in that time I helped her care for her Italian Greyhounds that she bred. We had anywhere from 2-6 adult dogs and 2-5 puppies in the house at any given time. My main task was to help get the wiggles out of the younger dogs, but I also helped socialize them and get them ready for dog shows. I have previously owned multiple cats, both as an adult and while growing up. Through this app I've had the opportunity to care for more cats, which is great! They really are beautiful creatures, and I love giving them scritches and playing with them (when they'll tolerate it). I currently own 8 pet rats that I love very much, but someday when I have a house with a yard I want to own multiple large dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with a surprising amount of space, two other animal-loving adults, and 8 pet rats that are homebodies (they don't like leaving their cage much). The apartment complex has a dog park, and I live less than a mile away from two nice public parks. If you live nearby and want me to go on some nice loooong walks with your pup I won't complain. 😉

Pan is so awesome with our pets. We did a meet and greet with him and our pets before booking. They warmed up to him quickly. He went the extra mile to make sure all of our pets were taken care of and comfortable. Each visit he sent us multiple pictures. We had set up 4 visits a day. He was at every visit. We will definitely use Pan again to take care of our pets.

Schedule

I'm dying to spend time with some lovely pets of any kind, even if it's just for a short walk or drop-in. 😁 My schedule is decently flexible, especially if I can have more than a day's notice.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Pan (Mel) Lynn can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I love to find out your pet's favorite things! Favorite toy, favorite place to be scritched, favorite games, favorite park, etc. I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for rats and big dogs.
