Highlights
Pet care experience
I miss cuddling other's pets
I spent the first 15 years of my adult life as a veterinary technician, mostly in emergency and critical care. I have raised many bottle babies, fostered, and even treated patients in my home. I have been out of vet med for some time but have continued to care for my own pets, foster, and petsit. I even have 1 petsit "fail", when covid hit and the cat's owners decided not to come back to the country, we welcomed her with open arms into our home.

Ratings and reviews
Wendy is genuinely the most thoughtful dog-sitter. She was incredibly sweet about comforting our nervous dog with the Independence Day fireworks going on. We are grateful!
We have booked Wendy twice and she has been great with both of our kitties. She goes above and beyond to make sure they are cared for. We definitely recommend her and will continue to book with her.
Wendy was absolutely amazing! Very grateful to have her take care of our two cats, including our spicy orange one.
Happy cat 😊
Wendy is a great pet sitter! She is awesome with our spicy orange cat
Takes such good care of my kitty who needs 4 different meds, twice a day.

Schedule
I work full time for a company where I have a lot of autonomy, flexibility, and the ability to work from home. I am usually up before dawn and off work by 3pm so I have plenty of time and flexibility for other's pets.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I own my home, it is small but is set up so that my cats have their own space to get away from the dog. I have a large fenced yard, but the fence is short and not suitable for jumpers. I have extra space where a kennel or 2 can be set up or a stressed cat can take refuge.

A typical day
I have found that fetch can be some of the best exercise. But living in Colorado can limit the outdoor activities during certain times of the year. It's important to tailor the type of exercise to the type of breed, time of day, and time of year. I currently have a golden retriever, she's a 45 pound runt. But overheating is a risk for any dog. So we have to play fetch and walk in the morning during most of June, all of July, and at least half of August. And the rest of the day is limiting play time outside and focusing on how to stay active inside. The rest of the year we focus on balancing our fetch and walk sessions with lots of cuddles, affection, and training.
