Professional Pet Sitting

As early as age 1 to the present (now having unbirthdays and going backwards), I have shared my life with many wonderful pets, some of which you may not think of as typical pets, but pets that needed to be cared for.  Please read on. . . . . .

The Welsh Terrier in the picture to the right is Nova, a champion in the show ring, who has been with me since she was 4.  She's my best furry buddy and a smart, mischievous doggy.  Nova hunts for critters and once found a box turtle in her backyard.  The turtle was relocated to a nearby stream and that turtle crawled off smiling.  Nova hunts for the squirrels too that she can't quite catch, however the other day, she came really close. 

Some of my best pet buddies or the "BPB" list include a rooster named George who begged food from neighbors backdoors.  My menagerie has included dogs, horses, cats, cows, an Angus bull, parakeets and a pig.  Tropical fish and my friend, Amy's bearded dragons also made the "BPB" list.

In Omaha, Nebraska, before migrating to Georgia, my son kept a 7ft. Burmese python, an iguana, two ferrets, two hamsters, a cat and a Cayman alligator in his room.  We were referred to as "Henry Doorly West" (as in the world famous Henry Doorly Zoo on Omaha's east side, known for its pioneering work with breeding of endangered species).  I learned not to pet an alligator because they are lightning quick and those teeth - yikes!!!

I also cared for a pet squirrel named Mo who was not to be caged and loved to jump on your shoulder.  What a surprise when you least expect it.  He had a habit of chewing through his plastic crate.

When I am not pet sitting for clients, I enjoy time with my husband, Ted (No. 1 on my list), two dogs, Holy Nova and Brownie, the brown hound of sound and one spotted saddle horse, Sadieblu. We all have a great time especially Nova when she  goes for a walk with her best buddy, Mom and her new dad, Ted unless Brownie comes along too.

I would love to care for your pets when you need a reliable, experienced, bonded and insured, professional pet sitter.

Thanks for visiting and hope to hear from you soon.  Happy Trails, Lindy
