LINDA DIVA Reviews

I was very ill and admitted to the hospital on Tuesday, July 30th, 2014

I was very desperate to find someone to take care of my dog, Sadie.

My son was on vacation in New Jersey. I called a few neighbors who were unable to watch her. She is a Bassette Hound and very strong. I tried calling pet services on the computer. I called the fire department, the police, ASPA, and every dog care I could find. I had left messages on their machines. No one returned my call until the next morning. Linda Riva returned my call. I explained my situation to her. She says she usually likes to see the owner before taking the job. She didn't want to pet visit in a "bad, unsafe area". She told me via phone she was insured, but not BONDED. With no other real choice, I gave her the job, my name, adress and phone number. It was @ 8:30 am on August 6th, 2014 that we made contact with each other.I told her the key was in the mail box. I had left some instructions/information that may be helpful. She toldhe would be there around 9;00 am and would call me after Sadie was tended to. The last contact Sadie had was with my son who was leaving for vacation the next day. It was Tuesday, August 29th, 2014 at @ 5:30pm.

The first day went well for Sadie and Linda. Linda spent about 2 hours with her, feeding her and taking her for walks. She called me and told me that.everything went well. Linda got attached to her very quickly and vise versa.

The next day, Thursday, August 31st 2104. She called me in the morning @8:00am. She was yellingh at me in an accusatory tone. She said "Sadie is acting out. She is having severe seperation anxiety and acting out. She' voiding all over the place. I just can't do this. Her acting out is causing me anxiety and panic attacks. Of course, the anxiety of them, gave me anxiety,. which was not good for my health. She repeated over and over the same thing. I said there,s nothing I can do, I'm in the hospital. So decided to let her go, fire her I told her I will try to find someone else to take care or board Sadie.

She was very adament when it came to paying her. I told her to tally up what I owe her and I'll write a check and send it out the same day. She charges $20 for the first visit and $15 for subsequent visits. She told me she bought 'wee-wee'pads for Sadie.

I wrote the check as promised, and it was mailed to her later that evening. Well, she wanted it right away. She told me about her financial situation and have "bill collecters knocking on her door". She wanted the check right away. I told her I was writing the check for her right now. She said NO, leave it with the operator. I told her no. She said have the check at the nurses station. I said no. She was getting m,ore and more angry. I said "Look,you now where I live.If you don't get the check by tomorrow or Monday, you can come over and beat me up" .

So she calls me on Tuesday, August 5th to tell meshe got the check. said she didn't go to the post office on Monday, August 4th, For someone that was so adamently and persistenly wanting her money, why didn't shego to the post office on Monday?
