I'll work with your dog's pace

Pet care experience

I'll work with your dog's at the fur-baby's pace, whether it's physical or emotional - at the same time remaining the authority figure that'll keep the him safe and secure. Former ultra marathon runner, who could really use your dog's pacing to be encouraged to make a come back after a short but sweet career. Snuggles and sweet talking are my speciality - so good that your pup will not be able to stay away for too long - even in the absence of treats. I am a self taught doggie massage therapist with healing hands that can melt away your pup's stress and anxiety, and if that fails, I am a certified level 2 Holy Fire Reiki healing therapist so the appropriate energy work will certainly do the trick.

Information Wendy L. would like to know about your pet

Tell me all your dog’s favorite pastimes and toys, routines, medical needs, and anything else that will help me assess the best care plan for your pup. I truly want to know all about your BFF, and his/her unique personal story.

A typical day

We love our 3 walks a day in this household - 1 short, 1 medium, and 1 long walk. It's a toss up as to when each will take place, as factors such as weather and the dog's stamina are part of the determining factors. We definitely have some favorite places to go to for the long walks - sometimes it's Livingston Field Park, other times Claremont Park, then there are days when we are just craving the festivities in the United Center complex. When we are not walking, we'll be sure to have everyone get their quality naps in - followed by throwing, fetching, zoomies, wrestles, pawing, loving, scratching - whatever little puppy heart desires.
