Information Cynda R. would like to know about your pet

ABCs are what I like to learn about with new dogs. Their attitude, behaviors and commands are great to learn about a dog and be able to keep any training work consistent.

A typical day

I like to let the dog show me their territory and I share mine if possible. I like to take dogs to parks with trails and good sniffing options like Genesee, Othello, and Seward Park if we have the time.

Pet care experience

I take care of many dogs with varying temperaments. All dogs are unique. I can quickly identify their preferences and cater to those preferences. I don't currently have any dogs or cats so I will treat yours like their family. My home is situated on a park with many excellent walking trails and play spaces as well as a nice postage stamp sized fenced yard your dog can enjoy with me. If they are compatible and you permit it, they can come along and meet some of my dog friends and if they are compatible, they can come along on walks with other dog clients.

Hazel had a great time staying with Cynda while I was out of town. She got lots of walks, cuddles, and play in her yard with the other dog staying with Cynda for the weekend. Cynda sent regular photo updates, which is greatly appreciated. I'd happily book with Cynda again.

Cynda is amazing! Our dog Leo loves staying with her. She's great about taking him on walks, and keeping us updated with photos.

Anubis loves Cynda. He was well taken care of and had plenty of exercise and love. Cynda provided us with daily checkins including pictures of Anubis on walks, napping, and being treated like a king. 10/10 would book again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
