About Pre-Adoption Consultation
Why I Offer Pre-Adoption Consults
I’ve seen too many people jump into pet parenting and then feel lost or overwhelmed. My pre-adoption consult is all about making sure you and your future pet are a good fit for each other, right from the start. I want you to feel ready, not just excited.
What We’ll Talk About
- How to choose the right pet for your lifestyle, not just by breed but by energy, personality, and your daily routine. Whether you’re in a tiny flat or a bungalow with a garden, we’ll figure out what works.
- Real talk about what it means to be a first-time pet owner. I’ll help you spot the common mistakes and avoid the usual heartbreaks.
- Communication basics: If you’ve ever wondered, “Maza kutra aikat nahi ka?” (Why isn’t my dog listening to me?), we’ll dig into why that happens and how to fix it.
- Setting up your home for a new pet, including crate training, using treats the right way, and teaching those first few commands that actually matter.
- If you’re thinking of adopting a cat, we’ll cover how to respect their space and read their body language so you don’t end up with a grumpy roommate.
What You’ll Get
You’ll leave with a clear plan, more confidence, and a better idea of what life with your new pet will really look like. No sugarcoating - just honest advice to help you start strong.

My Story
Hi, I’m Vedika from Waggology. Dogs call me all sorts of names, and honestly, I love it. Training for me? It’s not about bossing your dog, it’s about learning to listen to them. I believe every pet deserves a trained human - haan, sach mein (yes, really)! I’ll probably spoil your dog with a silly nickname and a lot of love. I care about all animals, streeties too. Main goal? Happy, calm dogs. And happier humans.
My Work
What I Do - Dog training, puppy potty training help, pre-pet consults, home pet sitting, vacation/event sitting, dog walking, and dog socialization treks.
How I Train - Only positive reinforcement dog training here. No fear, no shouting. Just love, patience, and lots of treats.
For Pet Parents Too - I coach you, not just your dog. You’ll learn to read their body language and build real trust.
Puppy Problems? - From biting to potty training, we start early habits for a lifetime of good behavior.
Tough Behaviors - Anxiety, aggression, barking? We find out why and make a plan so your dog feels safe.
