About: I’m a dog mom to a two year old German shepherd. I have a very flexible schedule . I’m a part time flight attendant and spend the rest of my time dog sitting and walking . I love all animals and all breeds . I currently travel for work as a flight attendant . I do however make my own schedule and know it a month in advance and I’m super flexible. Im trying to cut back on flying to be home more so I found this ap to help me do so . The days I am home I’m available whenever I’m needed. Caring for a pet in someone else’s home I would treat them as if they were my own . With all the love and care they need and under the rules of the owner . I am very protective of my baby boy so I would be with your pet too . I understand the stress and anxiety an owner can have to have someone that isn’t their mom or dad watch them . Whatever I’m asked I will do with plenty of photos , pets and belly rubs to make the owner and fur baby feel at ease and cared for .

“Synthea has always had a strong love for animals since she was a child. She herself has 7 cats. She loves animals with all her heart. She is very responsible and loving. She has experience working in vet hospitals and caring for animals. She’s always treated every animal like royalty. Animals are a very sentimental passion to her as she lost her own dog Chiquita. It hit her hard and she even has a tattoo as a memorial to her beloved chiki. You can rest assured that your animal will be taken care of properly and most of all shown plenty of love!”

“Very professional and respectful. Would hire again!”
Lucas B.
“Lucas B. Would be an exceptional pet sitter/ walker. He is a professional k9 handler and trainer with a nationally known company. His personal dogs are trained in explosive detection. But beyond this he loves animals. He can, by observation, detect what the animals need or what their behavior is expressing. The fact that after working with dogs all day and he still desires to spend time with other pets shows his fondness for dogs. He is compassionate and understanding and has a great work ethic. I recommend him without reservation.”
