I don't even know where to start. This assignment would have been a challenge for Cesar Millan. We have Two Aussies under the age of two. They are littermates and both male. They are super reactive and very high energy. They don't like other dogs and basically got kicked out of doggie daycare. One is on Prozac. The other was being medicated and monitored for a bladder infection when we left. They are house dogs but also accustomed to running our three acres without fences or leashes. We live in a very isolated area in the Croatan. There are bear, boar, coyotes, and bobcats right in our backyard. It's also deer season so shotgun fire and hunting dogs are close on a regular basis. If that wasn't enough, our home is a disaster. The water heater blew recently and we are in the process of ripping out and replacing the flooring from the flood. None of this intimidated Wendie. She came right into our mess with a level of professionalism and compassion you could never measure. She sent multiple photos and updates daily and we were actually able to relax a little while we were away. Her daughter, Jenny, knew our dogs are comforted by music and played guitar for them every night until they calmed down. They were so kind and loving to our dogs and to us while we were away. I never thought we could leave them safely. I wouldn't hesitate to leave our dogs and our home in the care of Wendie ever again. Our expectations were exceeded in every possible way. They miss you already Wendie and hope to see you again soon. Thank you with all of our hearts, Megan Jason Tracker and Scout
This was our first use of Rover services and I doubt I will use it again. I submitted the requested pictures and individual profiles of each dog. Wendie arrived earlier than agreed upon and we were still home due to a change in schedule. We canceled that visit as we were there. The second visit she notified us that after taking the dogs out she could only find 3 of the 4 dogs she was caring for. She did not identify the dog she could not find. She stated dog might be under furniture or outside, but she did not know. There was only 2 pieces of furniture in the rooms blocked off for the dogs. We had to cut our visit short to come home to locate missing dog. It was Bailey who I noted in profile would hide under furniture. We cancelled last visit also because we would be home. She only worked with dogs 1 of 3 scheduled visits. Wendi also sent us pictures of our house which “overwhelmed “ her with “unacceptable” conditions. The pictures consisted of pee pads with pee on them and chewed up box of fake nails. Dogs pee on pads. Dogs left alone chew up what they can find. I hired her to care for my dogs, not inspect and judge my housekeeping. She did not use the information to feed, find “missing” dog, or identify dog missing. I paid for three visits and cancelled 2 due to being early and us having to come home early. I feel I deserve a refund. If you want someone in your home taking pictures, losing your dog , and sending you rude comments about your home, then Wendie is your sitter. As for me, I think not.
First timer here! Normally, we take both our dogs EVERYWHERE, so I was a little hesitant leaving them for the weekend. Thankfully, I had such a great experience with having Wendi watch over my two big babies! I cannot fully express enough how relieved I was after our meet and greet. My dogs were the biggest Wendi has sat for and she knocked it out of the park! Plenty of pictures and communication throughout the weekend kept me confidant that my dogs behaved and we're easy to care for. I will be a repeat customer in the future. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much!
