About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 15 years because I truly love dogs. I’ve cared for all kinds of pups from playful puppies to wise senior dogs and I’m experienced in giving medication when needed. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Right now, I have a senior dog we rescued as a puppy who’s my constant companion. I love all animals and currently have one dog, 2 crazy cats and a bearded dragon. I am currently working part-time but I have a very flexible schedule so I am available daily or for your vacation needs when you travel. I offer reliable pet sitting services right in the comfort of your own home, providing personalized care and attention to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

“Great job! Thanks again for helping us out on such short notice. I especially appreciate you taking one for the team and walking him in that monsoon the other day 😉. You will definitely be my first call next time snafu and I need a hand. Thanks again ❤️❤️”

About: Hello, My name is Sydney, and I’m excited to offer my services as a pet sitter through Rover. Animals have always been a big part of my life—I currently care for 18 pets, including dogs, cats, chinchillas, a bearded dragon, and chickens. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care routines, and the importance of providing individualized attention to each pet’s unique needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications and have experience caring for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges or special health considerations. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra TLC, I’m committed to ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in your absence. You can trust that I will treat your pet like one of my own—offering patience, affection, and reliability. I am also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and any special care requests to give you peace of mind. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your furry (or scaly or feathery) family members and ensure they are happy and comfortable while you’re away. Best regards, Sydney I work during the week Monday through Friday. On Mondays I typically work from home, so I’d be able to do drop ins on Mondays, and on Fridays I work in the office for a half day, so if you go on a weekend getaway I could start earlier on Friday afternoon. I also am off on weekends, so I have full availability then. I can also do evening check-ins any day of the week. When going into someone else’s home, I make sure to follow any rules that the family has in place for me. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I don’t mind spending extra time with their pet as I know sometimes animals can get lonely and miss their humans. I will be sure to make sure they are well fed, always have water, get lots of pets/snuggles, and I’ll be sure to send updates and photos. If there is anything wrong when checking on your pet, I will be sure to let you know immediately and will take your pet to a vet.

About: As long as I can remember I’ve been raised with pets! There has never been a time in my life when we didn’t have at least one dog and cat. That being said, I’ve been caring for animals all of my life! I started petsitting more seriously when I was about 13 or 14 years old. Professionally, I used to work in an animal hospital as an animal care technician, which entailed a variety of tasks; daycares, boarding, baths, and more. I’m also signed up as a volunteer at Saving Grace! I’m free Sunday through Thursday at any time! The only days I have restrictions are on Friday and Saturday. Friday and Saturday: Morning - 2:00pm ** I am a waitress, so I don’t typically get off until 10:30pm. ** We have a lot of pets so I don’t intend to pet sit in home. I’m able to administer meds, though I may need a refresher on how to do insulin for diabetic fur babies! As long as you’re comfortable, I typically hang out with your fur baby as much as possible. If I have the day free, I could easily spend the whole day just hanging out with your pet!

“Sydney is one of the most responsible and loving pet owners I know. She is always around when I need her to come over to feed and walk my dogs when I know I am going to be working later than usual, or when I need someone to make visits when I am out of the home. She's always on time and makes sure they're safe. I know she has a few different types of animals herself, and so it makes me feel at ease my dogs are safe with another animal lover. She goes above and beyond for my fur babies! My two dogs and I love her!”
