Safety, trust & environment

I have a large enclosed deck. My house is perched on the hillside above Canyon Lake and is set above the treeline and looks out over the lake so there is no yard. There are so many trails and walking paths in my neighborhood and you can find me walking the neighborhood on any given day:) I love to take walks as it is absolutely beautiful in my neighborhood (the Village) so even though I don't have a yard you can be certain that your pup would get to be outside and take many walks with me:) I watch my daughter's fur baby every time she goes out of town and I take her on no less than 4 walks a day. We spend a lot of time outside. If you prefer that your dog be crated when I am not in the home, I am happy to do that; however, if your dog is not crate trained that is perfectly fine as well as long as they are potty trained:) I will follow whatever schedule for your pet that you provide. Again, I am super flexible.

Information Wendy M. would like to know about your pet

I would just want to know if your fur baby has any triggers that make them fearful or shy. Also, I would need to know if your fur baby has any food allergies or restrictions. Also, if they are hard of hearing or have trouble seeing. I want to make sure that I make your fur baby feel as comfortable and accommodated as if they were in their own home and with their own family:)

A typical day

I love to go exploring the trails with my daughter's doggy when I watch her. She is my gran-fur:) We go on a lot of hikes together. We also play a lot of fetch and tug o war! I have lots of toys for her!

Pet care experience

I am a an empty nester with 12+ years experience caring for not only my own fur babies but other families pets as well. I had a pet boarding business in my home for 4 years and it was my absolutely number one most favorite job that never felt like a job! I had to give that up when our family moved. I also worked for a service in Washington (Seattle area) when I lived there short term. I have always wanted to get back into pet care. Now I am basically retired, own my home and my children have all grown up and left the nest. I have 1 cat who is very shy, but would sure love to add more furry friends to my humble abode by making myself available for caring for your pets when needed! I will love them like my own!

Wendy has a heart for dogs and provided wonderful TLC for our two on her recent visits. She kept me updated about her arrival and departure time and sent lots of pictures showing just how much fun our dogs had with her. We will certainly use her again whenever a need arises.
