Meet the Business Owner

Wendy Z.

Business Owner

The Wagging Mutt is owned and operated by Wendy Z and gets its inspiration from her four-​legged sidekick, Laika (the original «wagging mutt»). Having grown up on a family farm in northern Pennsylvania, it is no surprise that Wendy possesses a love for all animals. While pursuing a BA in psychology from the University of Virginia, she worked in a boarding kennel and was responsible for feeding, administering medications, and providing outdoor fun to over 30 dogs while their owners were away. With a solid understanding of animal behavior, Wendy applies the principles of positive reinforcement to shape positive change and create a trusting, loving, and harmonious relationship with pets in her care.

The Wagging Mutt prides itself on delivering the best personal service to dog owners who seek a highly individualized dog walking service.
