Expert Loving Care For Your Pets
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Cynthia and I am a huge animal lover. Since becoming a freelance pet caretaker in spring 2018, I have worked with a large range of cats and dogs, including puppies, kittens, anxious pets, rescues, those requiring oral medications, and elderly dogs and cats. I am very happy to send pictures/video and updates throughout your time away. I am hoping to put my care and attentive skills to good use taking care of your fluffy loved ones. I would love nothing more than to pet your cat by a rainy window or walk with your dog along a trail! I am mature and responsible, with lots of love and care to share. I am fluent in both canine and feline body language, and I know how positively animals respond to a warm, calm, respectful presence. Your pets can peacefully relax in their own home and you can relax knowing they are being well taken care of. I currently work 8am-2pm Monday to Friday as a dog walker bringing groups of dogs on adventure hikes in the North Shore and am extending my animal skills and caring nature into cat and dog care during my non-work hours. This does restrict which clients I can accept for housesitting (pets must be okay alone at home for 6ish hours depending on commute). **COVID-19 UPDATE** Given the current situation, I have adopted some policies for housesitting, home visits, and dog walking to help reduce the potential spread of the virus. I have training in infection control and sanitary hygiene procedures. I will: - remove outerwear at the door and wash my hands thoroughly immediately upon entering - wash/disinfect doorknobs, light switches, litter scoop handles, alarm buttons, anything else I might touch before leaving - happily adopt an alternative cleaning/disinfecting procedure if you have one you prefer - inform you immediately if I am feeling unwell, offer a full refund, and assist in finding a replacement sitter/walker Please feel free to reach out with inquiries, I am happy to meet up virtually or over the phone with no commitments to make sure it's a good fit.
Reviews
My dog Pixel tends to be anxious around strangers. When Pixel and Cynthia were first introduced he refused to go near her. She was very patient with his anxiety. Now he loves to snuggle up in Cynthia's lap and is always happy to see her.
Cynthia is a genuinely caring human being. She is attentive in all tasks she undertakes and is responsive and timely. She has helped me take care of my dog upon occasion and enjoys spending time with all animals. She lives an active lifestyle and is a responsible student.

I will treat your pets with the same love, care, and dedication that my own kitty receives. I am a huge animal lover and dedicated to providing quality service so your pets enjoy a great visit/walk.
Information Cynthia C. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences. Please let me know if your dog has any issues with strangers, other dogs, other animals, strong scents, doesn't enjoy car rides, etc. If your dog has any preferred treats or areas for walks I'd love to know that as well!
A typical day
Walks, runs, fetches, swimming in the ocean, or just laying around and cuddling. I am happy to facilitate whatever kind of activities your pet enjoys! I live in Fleetwood but I have a car and can absolutely travel to you and where your dog likes to play or your cat likes to sunbathe.

I'm currently available for pets every day of the week, any time of day, barring existing commitments. Because I have my own cat at home, I no longer do overnight housesitting.
