Safety, trust & environment

I do have a nicely sized fenced yard. I live on a pipestem on a cul-de-sac street. My street does not have a lot of car traffic. It also has a wonderful walking trail in my backyard for fun walks.

Information Cynthia C. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with epileptic dogs and snub nosed breeds. Dogs and cats love me. I always give extra love because as a fur-mom myself, I would want the same for mine.

A typical day

I love being active so there will be a good number of walks! My backyard is the perfect place for frisbee or ball time. I have a great walking path that runs along my backyard. It’s time to sniff all the new smells! Once in a while, I will bake homemade dog treats!

Loving care and attention!

Pet care experience

I started my own pet sitting business 30 years ago in California. I love all dogs but have special knowledge on how to care for Brachycephalic Dog Breeds (flat-faced dogs). Rest assured, your fur-family member will be cared for like my own family member.

Cynthia is an incredibly caring, patient, and loving dog sitter! She was very thoughtful and intentional about how to make our dogs comfortable and prevent them from being stressed as much ad possible. I am so grateful for her patience, especially with our vocal Pomeranians and cleaning up their frequent messes. You can trust Cynthia to do an amazing job caring for your babies! We hope she will be available and willing to watch our mischievous pack of trouble-making Poms in the future.

Cynthia took care of my dog for the third time recently and I have complete trust with her family. It actually took me several attempts to convince my dog to come back with me! Thank you!
