Pet care experience

Here for you, and them. All pets!!

I absolutely love animals of all types and have grown up and been around dogs, cats, and small animals my whole life. Most recently, I’ve been working at grooming salons. I’ve learned how to gently and safely deal with all sizes, breeds, and personalities in order to keep them as comfortable and stress-free during their appointments. I also volunteered at AWARE Wildlife Rehabilitation Center and gained additional valuable hands-on experience and knowledge with even more species. My family and friends have relied on my experience for years to safely care for their pets with love. Thanks to my wide range of experience, I am comfortable caring for your furbabies as I would my own.

Winnie was great with our 3 pups! We have a girl who is super anxious and doesn’t warm up to people well, but she loved Winnie. That was a huge relief for us! We will for sure be booking with her again to take care of our babies.

Hello, I believe Winifred will be a great pet caregiver for Rover because of her love for animals. Since I meet Winifred I see her passion and care for the fur animals. She’s very patient and calm with them, she’s brave enough to pick up after them for example potty time. I once asked Winifred to help me with my dog Bruno once, we had an emergency and had to leave town immediately and Winifred was such a sweetheart for watching over Bruno while we was not in town. I have a lot of admiration for her for doing that for us. I would totally recommend Winifred to be a caregiver since she loves all animals.

I absolutely recommend Winifred! I had to leave my fur baby alone for a day because my friend was in the hospital, so I reached out to Wini last minute. She arrived as quickly as she could. You can tell she is an animal lover because my puppy looked happy being around her when I got back.

Winifred was amazing with my dog Rocco he’s a wonderful Bouvie Des Flanders I was a bit nervous to leave him for the first time with someone he wasn’t familiar with but Winifred did so amazing with him she gave me peace of mind . She was very patient and playful with Rocco she kept him active and followed careful instructions for Rocco’s strict diet. Rocco loves Winifred she’s dog sit for me more than once and she’s always so amazing with him. I would recommend her anytime to dog sit and care for anyone’s fur babies.

I had Winifred watch my Luna while I went on vacation for a week and she took such good care of my baby. She routinely sent me pictures and videos of my luna on walks, and using the restroom, eating and playing, so I knew my baby was well cared for during that time. Winifred took her to the dog park and the dog beach as well! (With my approval of course). When I came home my Luna was more sad to leave her than she was happy to see me! (Just kidding she’s always happy to see me!) I highly recommend Winifred with the care of your fur babies! I would totally call Winifred next time I go on vacation or even for a night away.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home I will provide a loving and safe environment for your furbabies. I have a master room made especially for my furry visitors. I have plenty of toys, rugs, blankets. Everything was added with lots of love, so that they can feel at home. Feel free to bring their own personal things as well. For indoor safety keeping kennels and doors securely closed is a top safety priority. For potty time I have a big back yard. I’m always very careful of my surroundings, before and during time outside for your furbabies safety. I encourage them to potty so they can feel comfortable in my yard. I will let them explore and have a fun time!.
