Meet Lindsey

I grew up caring for dogs and have extensive experience with a wide variety of different breeds. I recently became certified in obedience training, Pet CPR and First Aid through Animal Behavior College. I'm an avid volunteer in the local community with a variety of animal welfare organizations such as PAWS NY, Bideawee, BARC animal shelters and Best Friends Animal Society. I have experience dog sitting for family and friends. I sat for a variety of different breeds including Beagles, American Bull/pit mix, and Australian Shepherd. In addition to my pet sitting and dog walking experience through volunteering with PAWS NY and shelters, I have gained an immense amount of skills and knowledge through my hands on training with puppy training and obedience courses. I can help with your puppy training needs and help curb unwanted behavior. I'm interested in finding out where your dog enjoys to walk, whether it be the park or waterfront area. :)

Lindsey pet sat for our zoo for almost the entire month of August of 2016. It was the first time we went away and I felt complete comfort, and when we returned all of my animals were happy, health, and completely content. We have two needy dogs, and two cats. One of my dogs needs medication 3x a day for degenerative disc disease. He must be carried up and down stairs. Lindsey had a instant and enduring rapport with my animals. She handled them with ease and comfort. She was mindful of all their separate needs and asked if she had any question.One of my cats is very shy and has never come out when a caretaker or a guest in my house was present. My cat came out of hiding! It was amazing and i couldn't believe my eyes when she sent me pictures to confirm! Lindsey was always responsive to my daily outreach and sent me updates without fail. I believe animals know when they are in the presence of someone who is kind and will be gentle, Lindsey is evidence of this type of individual. I have had an extremely difficult time finding someone to handle my zoo when I go away, I have always returned to a catastrophe. This August, I came back to tranquil, well cared for animals and a tidy home. Lindsey is a wonderful person and an excellent pet care giver. I highly recommend her for all your animal needs!!!!
