NO CHARGE FOR ADDITIONAL PETS!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm pretty sure I was born loving animals, and meeting new ones is one of my favorite things to do! When you are away, your dogs will play (and snuggle, and walk, and run). I love all breeds and sizes of dogs. This is my full-time job, so I am always available for you. I can also house sit and take care of trash, mail, etc. Your dogs will have expert care and be treated as my own while I am with them. I love kitties too, and will be happy to care for them as well. Lastly, I don't charge for additional pets under most circumstances. If it's no more time or trouble, I don't see any reason to charge you more. :) I'm almost always staying in a pet parents' home, and drop-in or walk other pets during the day. I always ask the stayover parents how long they will leave their pet alone, and I build my daytime schedule around that information. I do a free meet-and-greet for each client, and I ask them to leave detailed instructions for me when they leave, because I meet a lot of new people and pets each week! I provide daily updates and pics, and ask questions if I'm unsure of anything.

Wendy did an awesome job with our 2 dogs. They really loved being home instead of being boarded. We loved the updates and pictures. Highly Recommended!

I recently had eye surgery for cataracts. I was out of the house for two days and when the operation was done, I could not bend down or lift more than 10 pounds for 7 days. I had previously called Wendy and planned for her to take care of my dogs, at my location for the first five days. She was truly a godsend. She took the week very seriously. Feed and walked them a minimum of twice a day. She also went to the veterinary clinic to pick up a prescription. The dogs loved having her here and I certainly enjoyed having my time to heal without having to worry about them. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again. I felt confident that they were cared for in a sincere and professional way. 5 star service in a 4 star town. Thank you Wendy.

I call myself the "no-risk pet sitter." I don't let your dog near other pups or dog parks without your permission. I don't feed them any food unless you've given the ok, and I definitely don't take them anywhere. Basically, I stick to your instructions, and if I have any questions, I'll ask.

Information Wendy S. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know any behavioral info, as well as where the necessities are located in the home (food, water, toys, meds, litter box, etc.). All of this info is covered at the meet-and-greet, and hopefully left in some detailed notes for me in the home. :)

A typical day

That all depends on what the owner tells me! We might go for a walk, play fetch, tug-of-war, etc. Show me the toy box and we'll take it from there. ;)

Pet care IS my daily and weekly routine! I'm almost always staying over at someone's home, caring for their pets, but I also have daily walks during the day.
