A dog's best friend.

Pet care experience

I have been around cats and dogs my entire life and have a passion for taking care of animals. Growing up, I had a miniature schnauzer, a morkiepoo, as well as a schnoodle all of which I absolutely adored. I have experience sitting for a variety of breeds and sizes dogs including labs, great danes, poodles, cockapoos, weimaraners, greyhounds, basset hounds, and boxers. Every pet is unique and I have dealt with a multitude of different sizes, temperaments, and care levels. I enjoy walking, giving scritches, belly-rubbing, snuggling, and playing with every furry creature I encounter. As far as house sitting goes, I am a very neat and organized person. I am quiet, respectful, and was taught to leave a house in better condition than I when I came in. I have house sat for extended periods of time and am flexible with requests (taking out trash, watering plants, etc.). I am up to date on my COVID vaccinations and boosters and am more than willing to mask up if that makes you feel more comfortable- just let me know! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. :)

Lindsay was wonderful with my two dogs. We met a few times before she stayed here and she had a good rapore with my two dogs and could tell she was a dog person. She bonded right away with them. I don't like leaving my dogs so very reassuring to know they will be well taken care of while away. She checked in with us and sent us pictures while away which makes all the difference. If looking for someone wonderful to take care of your dogs she is the person.

Excellent communication, warmth and professionalism in her care for our little bundle of joy over the Thanksgiving holiday! She went above and beyond sending photos and cuddling with our pup! We are not going to ever let her move from the area :-)

As first time clients we were apprehensive about using Rover. We we’re going away for a week and needed someone to stay in our home and treat our 10yr old wheaten with love and respect. Lindsey met and exceeded those goals and we were thrilled.Lindsey demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and competence. We have already asked her if she could return in the future. It is with great satisfaction and confidence that we recommend Lindsey to you .

Safety, trust & environment

Every dog is different and I am open to the owner and dog’s needs around trust and safety. My own dog is VERY shy with new people, so I know the ropes with quickly developing trust.

Information Lindsey B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know feeding and bathroom schedule, vet contact information, any favorite activities, treats, or toys, where emergency supplies are, how your pet interacts with new people and other dogs, as well as any behaviors that would be good to know about.

A typical day

I enjoy walking, giving scritches, belly rubs, and snuggles and going to dog parks! I’m adaptable to client and pet needs, so if there are activities your pet enjoys I would love to give those a shot!

I recently moved to MA from MN. Am getting back into dog sitting for a bit as a way to make a bit of extra money to help pay off my recent wedding costs. I currently have the ability to work remotely, but depending on my client at the time (I’m a consultant) I may occasionally need to go into the office for the day. My weekends are very flexible and I am up for anything from cuddling up with the pup and binge watching Netflix to taking trips to local dog parks.
