Experienced Pet Care
Pet care experience
Hi, my name is Wendy, I am a lifelong animal LOVER/advocate. I have 40+ years caring for many different types and ages of pets, I am a volunteer at the Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center in Morgan Hill as well as previous experience supervising two dog boarding facilities. My mom and I work together taking care of the dogs we board. We love meeting new pets and will for sure get along great with yours!! We only watch 1 to 2 dogs from 1 household at a time plus our two so there would be up to 4 dogs at most at a time. We offer 24 hour care, someone is always here with our pets. We pay very close attention to detail and keep a very safe and clean/disinfected ( We use non-toxic cleaning products) space for them. I get along extremely well with dogs, cats and most other pets or critters (not 8 legged ones or ones that eat live food) Common sense and compassion are always used when caring for your pet. We take the responsibility of caring for someone’s fur child VERY serious. I am trustworthy, responsible, on time, organized and hard working. You will not be disappointed in my care of your fur baby or babies. Flexible drop-off and pick-up times are available as well as evenings, weekends, daytime and late night. We would love the opportunity to meet you and your fur baby.
Reviews
Wendy did a great job! My little fur baby had so much fun with her 2 other dogs. I would definitely hire her again.
Excellent experience. Sent many photos which helped us stay involved.
Took great care of my little old munchkins ?
Wendy took great care of me and my husband's two cats and kept us updated the whole time! Both are indoor-only cats and them having their own room to stay in was a big deal. Their room was spacious and allowed for more than enough room for them to play and run around in and even had a nice window view. Would definitely book again in the future!!

Safety, trust & environment

Home
Information Wendy M. would like to know about your pet
20lbs and under, non-aggressive, dog and cat friendly. Info. Needed; current vaccines, (Bordetella, DHLPP and Rabies) Flea medication What are the feeding instructions? Medication instructions? Special treats? Special toys? Grooming instructions?
A typical day
A typical stay with me will include playing indoor/outdoor and rest (fenced in yard for dogs only, cats stay indoors the entire stay). Your pet will have their own room (cats), a pen if that’s what they are used to or be out and about in the house (that’s what’s usual) if they want; whatever makes them most comfortable and secure while you are away. Located in a very safe neighborhood. There’s is also a large, secure, fenced-in back yard to play in. The fence is checked before each new pet to make sure it is always secure, as well as security gates at all times around all doors leading to the outside. They will have bottled water, high quality treats (if ok’d by you) prepared meals to your specification, medications (if needed, specified by you) and a temperature controlled environment. Due to the high number of off-leash large unattended dogs around Gilroy, we keep all out door activity to the back yard which is like a small park. Once they are safely within my home they remain there until pick-up time due to liability and safety issues. Keeping your fur baby safe is our # 1priority. We watch up to two boarders at a time, up to 5 dogs at a time (counting my two) at most. All vaccine records must be up to date. All dogs must be small (under 20lbs) friendly, non aggressive.

Wendy can host
Availability
My mom and I have schedules that accommodate one of us always being here with the dogs (I do ask that you book the correct drop off and pick-up time and then let me know if you will be late, I appreciate when people drop-off at the scheduled time as that is what I am planning on and waiting for) Pets are rarely alone unless in rare circumstances for 1-2 hours which we would pre-discuss with the pet owner
