About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including pregnant mamas and newborn pups—I bring more than just love to pet sitting. I’ve assisted in safe deliveries, cared for litters, and provided round-the-clock attention to dogs with special needs. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and training, so their good habits stay strong even while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, behavior reinforcement, or late-night check-ins, your pet will be cared for like they’re my own. I plan my day around the pets I care for. From morning walks to evening check-ins, their needs come first, and I always make sure to give them structure, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, their comfort and routine are my top priority. I adapt to their personality and needs—whether that means active play, extra snuggles, or sticking to a specific training or feeding schedule. I always aim to provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment they can feel secure in.
“Karen was excellent. She took great care of Zoey and sent pictures often. It was great to have that assurance that she was well cared for and I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Alissa was very sweet and welcoming right off the bat. She took good care of my dog and constantly sent me pictures and updates on how he was doing. She even made a name sticker in my dogs name which I thought was very cool.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for years including my own, fosters, and family and friends’ pets. I have experience with all ages and sizes of both cats and dogs. I do have a 7 year old lab in my home who is very friendly and loves overnight doggie guests. I would love to learn more about how I can help you care for your pet! Note: I only book one client at a time for in-my-home services (day car/boarding). I accept multiple dogs from the same family, but will not book another client while I have your dog(s). I currently work full time with a flexible schedule during the week and am very available on weekends! I’d be happy to see how I can fit your loved ones care into my schedule! I have a fully fenced (6ft wood privacy) large yard. We also allow our dog and your on all furniture and beds if they’d like; they’re a member of the family. We do have a crate for security if that makes your pup feel more safe and sound when they’re away from their humans. Please let me know if there are any other accommodations or notes I’d need to know to best care for your pet!
About: I owned dogs for 40 years so I know how our pets are family. I said goodbye to my little furbaby 4 years ago and while I’m not ready to have my own again, I’m happy to love on yours. I’m single, no kids, so if you have a puppy that requires extra attention, a senior dog who prefers a low key environment, or just a dog that appreciates being spoiled, I’m your gal. I love the energy a dog brings to a home. I live in a quiet low traffic neighborhood so we’ll start and end the day with a walk to get us both some exercise. I live next to the state park and across from the loop, if you prefer your pup to have more exercise. I’ve had three puppies of my own, watched my mother’s brand new puppy during COVID, so I’m comfortable with adhering to your potty training schedule so your training doesn’t miss a beat. If there’s other training you want me to keep up with, I’m happy to do that too! I also have had two senior dogs that passed from cancer so I’m comfortable with providing a relaxing environment for them, as well as medication administration. I work from home and will be taking time off for the holidays so your pet will have my full attention. I’m accustomed to taking care of my family and friends pets, so know how important it is to stick to the dog’s routine. I will take them on AM/PM walks with potty breaks in between but happy to do more extensive exercising on the loop or hiking trails at my house. You know what your dog needs, so I’ll gladly accommodate. I have a fenced in back yard but your dog will only be outside supervised. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for morning and evening walks. I also live across from the loop trail and next to the state park in case you’d like your dog to get more exercise in. I’m happy to crate your dog too if that’s your preference. I’m also a snuggler so happy to have your dog join me on the couch or sleep in the bed. It’s just me, so your dog doesn’t have to contend with other pets or kids. They can get 1:1 attention. I only take one family at a time.

Angela P.
“I’ve always been hesitant to leave my dog with just anyone because she has separation anxiety but leaving her with Angela was a completely different experience! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt confident she was in the best hands. Angela treated my dog like her own—taking her on fun walks and hikes, playing toys with her, cuddling with her on the couch and even in bed (just like at home!). She kept me updated with tons of pictures which helped me relax and enjoy my trip, knowing my dog was having an amazing time. I can’t recommend Angela enough—she’s not just a dog sitter, she’s someone who truly loves dogs. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet as much as you do, she’s the one!”

Our dog had a great overnight weekend visit with Lynda and Max. Would recommend highly and continue to work with her whenever we need a sitter.
Lynda is AWESOME!! My baby girl basically had a vacation of her own when Lynda watched her! Tons of walks, snuggles and love, not to mention her new best friend Max who is the sweetest. I did not have to worry about my dog at all, I knew she was in perfect hands. I can’t say enough good things about Lynda, she is our favorite!
