It's that time of year again, please be mindful of how your pets are affected by extreme heat! Thank you. 🥵

BRRR it’s COLD in the Northeast, frigid temps and more snow/ice coming…🥶

When it’s hot, it’s HOT — and when it’s cold, it’s COLD! Right now we are dealing with COLD temps 🥶. I worry about frostbite and slipping on the ice, for both the dogs and myself!

Here are some guidelines for weather. I posted in the summer in the heat and posting again, I know you all love your dogs as family 😊

Walks during these frigid temps will be shortened as we move through February and possible March. Stay warm 🥶

I’m so excited to announce that Linda The Pet Nanny is now an LLC!

Thank you to all of my clients for repeatedly trusting me with the care of your pets!

I started this journey in the Fall of 2019 not knowing where it would take me….My client base grew through trust, communication and accountability - one by one- each one knowing that their beloved furry family members would be well taken care of while they were away.

Then Covid hit…March 2020… the lockdown began, everyone stayed home, travel bans in place, etc. I still had some essential workers who needed me and continued to trust me. Summer 2020 was busy with families traveling locally and/or driving to/from their destinations.

Fast forward to March 2021– travel bans lifted! Spring Break! Summer plans! Booked for months in advance now, wow!

Thank you, thank you to all of my clients!! The same high level of service will always be guaranteed. I’ve met so many wonderful people, dogs, cats, bunnies, ducks, chickens etc. I’m looking forward to a wonderful 2022.

Also, huge shoutout to my husband, Tony Galuardi, for all of your support and help, love you 😘

It’s so difficult to be on the job helping other families with their pets knowing that one of your own is suffering — yet we make our schedules, show up on time and take care of those who are waiting for us because that’s what we love to do ❤️😢

When you do everything you can to help them, to turn them around, manage the disease, make them whole again — and nothing works… an emotional roller coaster… it’s truly heartbreaking. Feeling so defeated 💔💔
————————————————————

Rest In Peace, handsome Charlie. You stole our hearts on that first day when you walked out of your little crate like a champion at 8 weeks old on just 3 legs… ❤️❤️, (you had lost your back right as a tiny baby in an injury). We knew we could love you unconditionally and that your physical ability could be limitless….

You were a loving, gentle soul and a true fighter. We will miss you and you will forever have an imprint on all of us. You taught us many lessons. You fought so hard these last two months with feline asthma. We did everything we could but it wasn’t enough to turn it around and today you told us it was finally time. Our hearts our breaking but we know you are whole again 💔🙏

We are grateful to Final Journey for coming to the house tonight. Your compassion was amazing at this very difficult time. Www.finaljourneyllc.com

We love you Charlie ❤️. Until we meet again 🌈

Please consider the danger of walking your dogs on the HOT summer days…. They will never complain- it’s up to us to protect their feet, bodies and overall hydration.

If walk your dog, I will be commenting privately on the heat index for each day/week and we will jointly decide.

If I Don’t walk your dog, please bring this topic up to your caregiver.

They will be happy to relieve themselves on the grass some days, hang out for a few minutes and then get back inside.

Thank you for your attention. 😎😎

Well We already have several domesticated furry family members, why not spread the trust and love to our backyard friends— meet Braveheart ❤️😊

Two of my favorites, Keeper and Finn! Keeper is 11 and was a bait dog in GA where she was rescued 2 days prior to being euthanized. She underwent back surgery in the Spring, she has such a beautiful spirit 🥰

Finn is 4 and came from a litter of 7! He is the mischievous one and oh such a ham. He has me wrapped around his paw lol. He tore his shoulder and is going in for surgery on Monday. I will be transporting him at 8 am.

They are both great dogs and have a wonderful forever home with their dad who loves them 🥰

This is how they greet me 😀

I am proud to announce that I am now a Certified Professional Pet Sitter. This is the only professional petsitter certification available 😊

Long overdue post! I hope everyone is staying healthy and happy 😀😀

People are getting back to work outside of the home. Folks are going away for the day, weekend or on vacation 😎.

With the Covid lockdown, our furry family members have become so attached to their human moms, dads, sisters and brothers. That’s a good thing: however it will be good for you and your fur babies to take a break for a bit 😀

It’s ok to leave them for the day or weekend😊. Get out and enjoy yourselves and leave the pets under my care! They will survive and I will send photos and updates so that you have peace of mind 😊

Here are some photos of recent fur babies I have had the pleasure of watching... can you find yours???

The holidays are coming soon! Contact me early to reserve my services 😊 My geographic area is limited so book early ...

May God Bless the essential workers, including my daughter who is an RN at Bridgeport Hospital, during this crazy time (of course, may God Bless us all as well) 🙏🙏.. I am missing my old daily walking friends and sending everyone well wishes. Your pets are happy that you’re home.❤️

This is Finn and Keeper, they are such loves, and their dad just went back to his regular schedule after being home for a few weeks and so here I am, happy to assist those who are not able to work at home during this challenging time.

If you know of someone on the front lines who needs help with their pets, please pass my name along — I wear gloves, a mask and soak my gloves in bleach after each visit..

I am also available for transports to veterinary hospitals as needed 😊
