Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in the owner's home. I follow the care instructions that the owner has given to me for their precious pet(s). I want to make sure the animal is well taken care of and is happy while the owner is away. I know how important it is for the owner to know that their pet(s) are safe and getting the highest quality care possible.

Information Cynthia P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any special instructions that will help me provide the best care I can for your pet(s). I want to make sure I follow the pet's daily routine.

A typical day

I would take the dog(s) out for a walk and/or play interesting games with them in the backyard. I like to take them to places they have not been before so that they can explore and have some mental stimulation. I also like to play interactive games with them. Dogs of all types enjoy doing basic scent work and helps with mental stimulation and confidence building. It also can reduce behavioral issues and anxiety.

Loving & Reliable Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I was raised on a farm where I developed my love for animals. I have previous veterinary technician experience. My last dog was a rescued Pitbull X and I worked with him to obtain his CGC certificate. We also did some search & rescue training and scent work. I am able to care for dogs and cats at every stage of their lives. I love every animal like it was my own.

My dogs absolutely love her. I am so grateful for her. It was so nice to be able to travel and know that my dogs were being loved and cared for so well. She is a blessing.

Cindy did a great job caring for my three pets and my home. My dog Layla loves her outside time and got plenty of it. My cats are aloof and do things on their own terms. Cindy let them get comfortable with her at their own pace. I got daily updates and pictures.

Cynthia stayed at our home and cared for our two dogs for one week while we were on vacation. She was wonderful! She stopped over before we left to learn about our house and the dog’s routines and upon meeting Cynthia you can tell she is an animal lover! She sent photos and communicated with me daily. We came home to happy dogs, clean laundry and home. Cynthia is very friendly, trustworthy and great with animals. I definitely recommend her!

Cindy was a wonderful caregiver! Excellent communicator! Cindy came by to meet with me and to get to know the pets priorr to her stay. She was very flexible with your schedule which was nice. Cindy arrived as scheduled and did a great job of sending photos and updates every day which I really appreciate! The house was spotless and we were so so happy to have her care for our fur babies while we were gone! She also administered medications and kept the dogs on their schedules. I'm excited to have Cindy come stay again the next time we travel.
