I often take care of my friends' dogs at my place or drop in and walk their dogs. I helped raise my family dog, and now I’m raising my own dog. I know how hard it is to leave your fur baby with someone else, so I love sending pictures and updates while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

I maintain a high standard of safety and cleanliness in my home. The building I live in, along with the neighborhood, is very quiet. I walk dogs on leash at all times, never off leash outside. Because incidents or illness can happen at dog parks, I do not go to the dog park. I also do not allow any dog under my care to come into contact with unknown dogs.

Information Wendy L. would like to know about your pet

I would like to get to know your dog beforehand to make sure it's a good fit, so your dog gets the best care. Please include 1-2 pictures of your dog and care instructions in your dog's profile. I would like to know if your dog is potty trained, crate trained, energy level, how much s/he barks, any allergies, and sleep habits. And anything I need to pay attention to, but we can talk about all that as we go!

A typical day

I have a lot of space at home for dogs to play around. I usually take 3 walks a day (in morning, during lunchtime, and before sunset) around the neighborhood.

Pet care experience

Very Important Stuff: I take care of dogs up to 20 pounds. I will be home the whole time, and your dog will never be alone. Most importantly, l only take 1 dog at a time to be fully attentive to your dog's needs. I do not take dogs that have ongoing medical needs, separation anxiety, hyperactivity, or excessive barking. Your dog must be potty trained to go on a schedule. I also ask that your dog be up to date in vaccinations to ensure a healthy environment. Lastly, meet and greets are required for boarding for dogs that have never stayed overnight with me before; and I like to do it way ahead of your booking date so that you have the flexibility to find another sitter if we are not a good match. I strive for quality over quantity and prioritize good fit over just getting more bookings.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
