Nothing better than cats and dogs

Pet care experience

I have had cats and dogs my entire life as well as hamsters, rats, guinea pigs and fish. I enjoy giving pets my best possible care and attention; catering to their energy level and interests. We have 2 dogs that are well socialized and good natured. I am cat crazy but due to spouses allergies we have decided not to adopt cats again. I'm known for sending lots of photos and texts to the hoomans so they can see how happy and relaxed their pet(s) is/are in my care. I've been a volunteer at PAWS for many years, raising donations and participating at PAWSwalk, volunteering at WildNight, assisting with pet adoptions and caring for homeless animals. Hope to meet you soon.

Wendy is fantastic! She is very communicative and takes excellent care of Lydia, my cat. My cat can be a bit feisty, but Wendy handles her very well. I am thankful to have such great care available for my out of town travels. Thank you Wendy!

Wendy was totally AWESOME! My kitties were happy and relaxed when we arrived home after Wendy cared for them for several days. She more than met their needs, and they cuddled with her quickly after she arrived. I was so pleased to have NO STRESS while Wendy was caring for my kitties. She enjoys being with cats!

I cannot recommend Wendy strongly enough! Wendy watched our cats while we were away and I was in just complete ease. I loved that she sent us pictures everyday. She even just texted to give me an update. We have a shy boy and she texted me and said she was able to pick him up. I will definitely have Wendy watch them again! Thank you Wendy!!!

I can not recommend Wendy strongly enough! Wendy sat for our 3 cats over a week last October (2020) while we were away. Our 3 cats each have their own personalities and distinct needs and Wendy picked up on them almost immediately. Our shy boy Arnie does not take to strangers very well, but by the second day, Wendy reported to me that Arnie was giving her head butts, which is his highest form of affection and trust. I was genuinely and of course pleasantly surprised by how quickly he came around to her. Wendy came to the house every day, provided multiple feedings, litterbox cleaning and enrichment/play time for all 3 cats. She sent me text photos of each one, each day as well as a report of how each day went. This was the first time we had left our cats for a vacation and I am an overly protective pet parent and a worrier. Wendy's attention to detail was greatly appreciated and relieved my anxiety. Wendy came to the house prior to our leaving for a meet and greet - both for us and the cats. Everything about the sitting engagement was top notch from start to finish. We would not hesitate even one second to use Wendy again for our cats.
