Information Wendy M. would like to know about your pet

I want to know everything about your dog that makes them happy & comfortable. The routine care instructions are a given-for example, how many times do they eat per day? How often should they go out? How long should their walks be? Can they sleep in the bed? Do they need any medications? But in addition to this routine information I’d love to know more about what your dog likes & what makes them comfortable! For example, do they have a nickname? What command words do you use, if any? Do they like to be covered with a blanket? Do they like baths/water? Are there any routines you do with your dog that I can do to make them feel less anxious about being away from you & their home? Feel free to tell me all of it!

A typical day

I live close to Audubon Park, so I typically walk the dogs in the morning to the park & I have a long leash so they can sniff & play at the park. I also get new plush toys in before I host dogs so we can have play time with toys every day. Most importantly I give your pet love & structure to make your pet less anxious about missing you!

Pets

Loving and experienced dog sitter

Pet care experience

I have been working with dogs, fostering, dog sitting, and basic training for over 15 years. I’ve had over 15 hours of classes on basic training for dogs, because polite dogs make for better long term placements. I love working with dogs & since I’m not currently fostering I would love to care for your dog.
