ABOUT
The journey and my love of all animals
Some 30 years ago I became the local dog sitter, minder, walker and general carer for my family and friend's pets. They were all predominately inside dogs and close companions.
Growing up on a farm with a multitude of animals and then starting my career as an animal carer, followed by a ranger, my love for all animals continued to grow, complementing my study and work in case management.
On a small residential block in Heathmont I set up Waggs Bed & Breakfast; there was rarely a time I didn’t have an extra someone to love and care for.
My love for animals drew me to purchase a property of 1.5 acres in the Kinglake Ranges and now I have branched out to care for domestic pets and farm animals on their own properties as well as having dogs stay in my own home.
Testimonials
Very good with animals, Wendy is professional and reliable. We will use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone needing home or away care for their pets. - Emma Scriven
Wendy is awesome! Her 'bedside manner' with our whole menagerie was amazing and they all loved her. Professional and truly caring for the animals in her care, I have no hesitation recommending Waggs to anyone needing their extended family cared for! :) - Brindabella Ridge
We travel a lot with our work, sometimes for a few days or a week, often longer. It is so reassuring to have Wendy not only feed our animals, but keep a watchful eye on them each day. Sometimes an animal has become unwell, and we have been so grateful for Wendy's prompt attention in letting us know, getting help if needed and caring for the animal. We can now go away with confidence that our animals are well looked after.- Merelyn
