“This was Rosey's first time staying with Wendy. She seemed very relaxed and felt safe and comfortable in all of the correspondence I received. Communication was A+. Wendy is very knowledgeable about dogs and has a great/safe place to board. Makes visiting dog feel welcome. We will definitely go to Wendy's again!”
“Sasha was great to work with. Our 1yo dog had regressed to excitement pee several times a day in and out of the house. She worked around it with some obedience training that worked for us, extra pads, frequent trips and baths—above and beyond what we prepared for. Sasha was kind and patient for the week she watched our dog and helped clarify the excitement issue wasn’t heat like we thought but just social (she stopped peeing once she got home). Would love to board with her again once we socialize our dog for a better board experience.”
About: Dogs have been apart of my life since I was a child. Life is so much better with a dog in it. I’ll walk, play, and love on them. As a pet sitter I can offer experience, training, a willingness to follow instructions and most of all, reliability. I’m currently working from home so I will be available when you need me I’m really flexible and try to work with you to make your fur babies stay less stressful for you and them I have a fenced in backyard and two fur babies to help keep company lots of love, playtime and attention will be given. we also have lots of toys. If need to be by themself and not around other dogs, that’s an option also. we love to also take walks if requested ❤️🦮🐕🦺🐈
“Communicated really fast with us, asked us important questions she needed to know about our dog Teddy, and Teddy came home really tired (which is a very good thing). Thank you so much for taking care of my dog!”
“Leo had a great time with Johanna! It was kind of a late notice trip and she was able to accommodate having Leo for 4 days. So nice having someone local and right here in town. She sent a pic each day and let me know how he was doing. He will be very excited to go back when we need to board him again! Leo gives a 5 paw rating! ??”
“My pups came home very tired! Sign of a good time? Not sure but they sure were quiet & slept a lot! Cristina said they did well & she would gladly take them again. The house was nice & spacious. I enjoyed the pictures, just wished there were a few more.”

With excellent references and a commitment to communication, you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. Let me provide the exceptional care your dog deserves! I’m currently working full time as a teacher at Thomas Jefferson, so I’m only available to fur babysit on weekends. After the school year ends I will become available throughout the whole week. I have a fenced yard and two friendly Labradors who will make for fun play companions. During the summer I provide a pool for my dogs which is also available to others with pup parent approval.
About: I’ve always loved farm style animals and a country girl that lives in the City. 😁 I’ve rode horses growing up and during fair time bottle calves for the sons to show at fair. We have a borgie that will be 2 February 13th. Borgie is a 1/4 border collie and 3/4 corgi. His name is Rip. We do live in McCallsburg but am in Nevada everyday. I have a part time job which makes my days Monday and Thursdays free. All three kiddos are in school all day this year. Let me know what you need and I'll see what we can get worked out! I unfortunately don’t have a fenced in yard . Will for sure take dog on walks. We do have a fenced in deck but it’s not much. We do have three young kiddos that will help your dog burn off energy.
