Pet care experience
Raised on a ranch in Colorado, animals have always been an important part of my life. Dogs, cats, and horses became family members and constant companions. As I went onto city life later, I owned various breeds of dogs and cats. For several years, I also assisted my daughter when she was breeding and raising Am Staffs. Quite recently, Callie, my best piti bull ever passed away, leaving me without a pet for perhaps the first time in my life. She required a great deal of care in her elder years, including a regimented medical diet and meds with frequent walks. Her absence is quite a lonely presence. While undecided about getting another dog, I would love to enjoy the companionship of dogs on a caregiving basis. I have years of pet care experience and most importantly, I have a lot of love , compassion & affection waiting to be shared with your dog. Please let me know how I can help your pet caregiving needs.
Reviews
Sandee was wonderful with my senior blind Lab. She is gracious and very thoughtful, sending photos and updates while providing great care. Gracie came home relaxed and happy.
Sandee was absolutely AMAZING with our dog Roscoe. I know him and he was basically attached to her all weekend and she loved it. She is the perfect person to leave your dog with, I’m a worrier and didn’t even give it a second thought. She’s just fabulous!!
I have been using Rover.com for 3 years and Sandee has exceeded our expectations as a care giver. I love that she only took one dog at a time. We felt our dog was well cared for and loved as we would. She was very accommodating when we needed to change our day. She will be the first we ask for, the next time we need a sitter.
Sandee was super with my older dog and kept me posted with her progress adjusting to her new environment.

Pets are like family to me. I walked mine 3-4 times a day. I allow them on my furniture as long as they are clean. My bed is their bed if that’s what they are used to. I also have stairs for the bed and sofa if they are a senior dog who needs help getting up if they are too heavy for me to lift. They will have fresh reverse osmosis water every day. I have plenty of dog dishes so no need to bring your own unless you prefer to.

Information Sandee W. would like to know about your pet
If your pet needs medications or has other special needs, let me know as my last piti had to have meds 3 times a day and feedings 3 times a day. My schedule was always based on her needs so she never got left for more than 3 hours at a time for the past few years.
A typical day
Going out for several walks a day around the neighborhood - usually every 2-3 hours. Snuggle with our pet as much as I can. Take them for a ride in the car for a quick errand if they like going for rides. If your dog likes toys, I have some here for them to play with. If they were like mine and chewed everything to pieces, I have a couple of Extreme Kongs for them to play with.

I am retired and home 95% of the time. My home is a very quiet home and I don't have many people coming in and out. I love taking dogs on walks and most of all I love to cuddle with them in the house. I so miss having my fur baby next to me as she was definitely a velcro dog - which is one of the many things I loved about her.
