Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Cynthia. I've been caring for pets since 10 years and have been a major dog and pet lover for 25 years! I am Pet CPR, First Aird, and AED certified. Availability: Only available Friday-Sunday for sittings. Except for this upcoming week of 01/22/2024 I will be available all week to pet sit! I can do puppy care and have trained dogs in the past. I am passionate about animals especially dogs. I am a highIy rated pet-care taker on Wag! and also in high demand. I juggle with both apps but I am only working when requested. I have 10 listed preferred clients and over 5 repeated clients on Wag! with 5 star ratings. I am flexible but prefer to be notified on a service a day before or more. For sittings please notify me the same week or earlier. If you by any means need to make a cancellation or decide to not go with my services. PLEASE: Notify me & make the cancellation up to three days in advance. Message me on Rover when you make the CANCELLATION/wont be following through with a service. Thank you
Reviews
Cynthia did a great job sitting for our two dogs and two cats! She handled our special needs dogs very well and provided lots of updates. She was professional, communicative, and accommodating. Our dogs seemed very happy with their care!
Cynthia has been my regular walker for a few months now and it’s been fantastic! My pup waits by the door when she knows it’s almost time for her walks, howling with excitement when I open the door. My dog always comes back happy, tired, and I love that Cynthia always changes up the route for novelty! She is proactive in her communication and always punctual. I highly recommend her services :)
Cynthia is trustworthy, punctual, respectful and really cares about our doggo, Kaju. We asked her to drop over at our house whenever Kaju would at home alone for a few hours -- sometimes just for a 20min check in and light play/walk in the middle, and sometimes for the entire period. We felt safe leaving doggo with her any time, and doggo likes her a lot. Also, very reasonably priced services.
Cynthia is an amazing pet sitter, we have three senior chihuahuas who have anxiety and she knows all the tricks to get them out of their shells. Anyone who allows Cynthia into their pets lives is extremely lucky! Thank you again Cynthia :)

Safety, trust & environment
I usually stick to sittings. If you are close by and don’t require me to be there overnight I can do that too! Most pets are fine with this although I usually stay the night since pet parents prefer that on Wag! a lot. It depends on the location but I am fine with both. I do my best with every pet and go above and beyond. As long as the client leaves clear instructions upon meeting or in notes and a little background of their pet beforehand. I also like to leave periodic photos and videos of the pets.
Information Cynthia T. would like to know about your pet
If they have separation anxiety. Behavior around others dogs or people. Allergies and medical conditions/needs should also be noted. It is also important to note if your dog usually warms up to people or not. Some dogs are all bark and no bite so it is good to prepare for that upon meeting and getting to know them and keeping the environment safe.
A typical day
If the pet parents is okay with dog parks I try to go to them. I usually keep a distance from most dogs because they can be untrained. I try to stay away from unleashed dogs. It all depends on the pet-parent’s instructions! I like to play with them with their favorite toy and mostly chill and hang out with them. I like to take different trails on the routinely walks. I also like to give pets treats/bones when they are allowed.
