Safety, trust & environment

When my boys were puppies, I would start off with a small section in our home and gradually introduce them to other areas as their potty training progressed. In terms of potty training, I kept a consistent schedule with feeding and recording their bathroom breaks (whether it was number 1 or 2.) After I learned their bathroom pattern and they were cleared by the vet to be introduced to grass, I would transition them to outside walk/potty breaks. At the same I would ween off the potty pads. Both my boys were house trained by 8-10 months. As a sitter, I always send a message if your pet went number 1 and/or 2. I usually like to make sure they go potty before I leave your pet alone.

Information Wendy M. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know any specifics about your pet prior to care to ensure that we are both comfortable and safe. I care for any pet as if they were my own and will fulfill any special request.

A typical day

I love long walks with my own boys. We often find a comfortable area to sit and soak in the sun. I believe in the importance of reinforcing commands with my boys and will do them same with your pet to keep them mentally stimulated.

Pet care experience

In my previous living complex, we would hold a daily play time. As soon as I stepped onto the sidewalk, the doggos would immediately run to the edge of the grass before my own boys steps foot onto the grass. I have been given the name "Dr. Wendy" as I love to give massages to the doggos during their play time, especially the older pups. I am a pre-med and currently applying to medical school. Naturally I have a lot of love, compassion and care to give to humans and of course dogs! I have raised a loyal 130 lbs GSD from puppy age, a spunky and cuddly rescue Yorkie ,a ferocious Maltipoo and high energy mini Goldendoodle.

This was our first time using Wendy after having a regular walker for about a year. We moved to a new location and Wendy was prompt in her response and friendly during the meet and greet. For the walk, she was patient with Jaxson, allowing him to warm up to her before going on their adventure together. We will definitely use her again!

Wendy is so great! Our little girl Ellie really loved her and had a great time. We will definitely be using her again when we need a sitter for our girl.
