Pet care experience

When I needed a hand, I found a paw

Hello! I'm Wendi. I'm a medical lab tech and retired firefighter/EMT. I am also a Pet CPR/First Aid Instructor. Prior to my careers, I worked at a private boarding kennel for 2.5 years. I have had multiple dog and cat companions over the years. I have a background in biology and medicine. Experience with large, small, young, and old. Multiple pet house holds are welcome. Experience providing medication including insulin injections. Special Needs pets are my specialty. I love spending time with dogs. It keeps me sane. Plus I always have healthy treats! We can play hard or just chill on the couch. Let me know how I can help you out and take away some stress while you're at work or away on vacation. I know that your pets are family and I will treat them like my own. I'm even happy to provide video chat if you really miss your baby! Experience with cats and exotic animals. I'm a weightlifter and Strongwoman competitor so large, strong dogs are not an issue.

Wendy is amazing, when I was stuck out of town for a snowstorm she braved the snow and took care of my kitties with no issue. And she takes great pictures of them 😋

Wendi always does a great job with my kitties. Even my Opal came out of hiding for her. Thanks again Wendi.

Wendi was fantastic! She was very attentive to our dog & cat, kept us updated regularly while we were away and took great care of everything while we were gone. We will not hesitate to ask her to stay again and are so glad to have her in our area!

Wendi did a great job checking on our kitties. Joe even started to come out from hiding to greet and to get some kitty love. Opal stayed hidden but she hides from everyone. Wendi sent me pictures of Joe. In the future I will book with Rover and definitely request Wendi.

Wendi took care of our dog and cat at last minutes notice for an extended period of time while we were in Europe! I cannot express how grateful we were for the care she provided our animals and house sitting services. Our dog requires medicine every 12 hours, and she managed it flawlessly with her work schedule! She was consistent, professional and very communicative with lots of pictures and updates to keep us at ease while traveling! She went above and beyond to keep the litter box clean and worked around the hurdles of us being in the middle of a house move. Thank you so much, Wendi! 😊
