Meet Our Team of Pet Carers

At Pawsitive Dogwalks, the work goes far beyond walking dogs or caring for pets. Instead, the team builds real friendships, creates joyful memories, and enriches the lives of both animals and people. Because a deep love for animals guides their work, every decision puts pets first. Their health, happiness, and emotional well-being stay at the heart of each service. Not only is every pet cared for like family, but each moment is made meaningful. As a result, every walk, cuddle, or play session becomes something special. Moreover, these moments build trust and lasting connections with every pet. Even quiet time is cherished, fostering calm and bonding. There’s also deep respect for animals and the unique relationships they offer. Undoubtedly, pets are seen as life’s greatest companions and gifts. Each team member brings genuine care, passion, and purpose to their work — always with a warm smile.

Our Story

The journey began when Linda Ward and Fredrik Adfeldt, two lifelong animal lovers, followed their shared passion. Together, they turned that love into a trusted and professional pet care service. As children, both grew up with animals and built strong emotional bonds. Because of those early experiences, they developed lasting values around love, care, and connection. Over time, many beloved pets entered their lives, offering joy and unforgettable lessons. Each animal taught them patience, empathy, and the value of consistent, loving care.

Eventually, their passion led to a mission to support animals in need wherever possible. Consequently, their personal journeys became the foundation of a place where pets feel truly safe and loved. Linda and Fredrik now focus on building trust and authentic relationships with both pets and people. With every walk and visit, they bring kindness, experience, and meaningful attention. Therefore, their work continues to reflect a heartfelt commitment to animals and the people who love them.

To Linda, animals are more than companions — they are family. Since childhood, she has felt a deep connection to their comfort and unconditional love. This bond inspired her to dedicate her life to animal care. Consequently, she creates calm and welcoming environments where pets feel secure and loved. Her kind, gentle approach helps animals relax and feel safe quickly. Even shy or anxious pets respond to her quiet, steady energy. Every visit shows her belief in treating pets like her own.

Fredrik Adfeldt

Fredrik shares Linda’s strong, lifelong connection with animals. He also believes that each interaction can brighten a pet’s day. With calm confidence, he offers reliable companionship built on trust and respect. Because of this, animals often respond with affection, joy, and ease. He finds deep meaning in the small moments — tail wags, greetings, and quiet time together. Fredrik brings patience and purpose to every walk or visit. Therefore, his care always turns ordinary time into meaningful experience.
