Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet Tech and Groomer for your pup!
I have over a decade of hands-on experience in pet care, including working as a veterinary technician which has given me the skills to confidently handle everything from routine care to emergencies. I specialize in caring for dogs of all ages - from energetic puppies who need structure and training, to senior pets who require a gentler touch and sometimes medication. I also have a home-based grooming business where I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. What sets me apart is my deep intuition with animals, my attention to detail, and my ability to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health that others might miss. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I genuinely love what I do it’s not just a job, it’s my passion!

Ratings and reviews
Luna loves staying with Sid. She has a great time playing with other dogs. The communication is great. I get a lot of videos of Luna playing and Sid has also been great for grooming. Luna looks wonderful after her grooming sessions with Sid.
Sadie really enjoyed her time at Sid's. Sid always takes good care of Sadie. We leave 40 minutes from Sid's, but it’s totally worth it!
Sid is the best sitter we’ve ever had for Astro! She treats him like the most loving family member would. He always comes home happy and wagging his tail.
My dog had a great time with Sid! Sid took extra care to make sure my dog, who’s a bit shy and anxious, was cared for and comfortable. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a new, safe place to leave their dog
Our Fiona loves staying with Sid and we know she is loved and well cared for!
Pippen always gets the best care from Sid and her team. He is always so excited to go back and I love the videos of him frocking in her lovely back yard.

Schedule
Pet care is fully integrated into my daily life because this isn’t just something I do on the side, it is my routine! I work from home as a groomer and my day revolves around feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, grooming appointments, and making sure each dog gets individual attention and affection.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets in a clean, secure, and pet-friendly home where they’re treated like part of the family. I supervise all interactions to ensure everyone gets along. My yard is fully enclosed with a 6ft fence for secure outdoor time, and I maintain a calm, structured environment to help dogs feel relaxed and at ease. When it comes to sleeping arrangements, I let each dog decide what makes them most comfortable. Some prefer curling up on the sofa, others sleep with their doggy friends, and more anxious or shy pups are welcome to sleep on my bed for extra comfort and reassurance. I follow each pet’s routine closely and accommodate special needs, including administering medication or monitoring behavior thanks to my background as a vet tech, I’m confident in handling pets with a wide range of needs.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day starts with a potty break and breakfast, followed by outdoor playtime. We might play fetch, enjoy the sun, or just relax in the yard. We take daily walks to a beautiful park nearby to explore and get some exercise and at least 4 potty breaks daily. Inside the home, it’s cozy and calm where dogs can cuddle, play with toys, or simply unwind in a space that feels like their own. I make sure each pup gets the perfect mix of activity, affection, and rest.

- For the safety and well-being of all pets in my care, I do not accept dogs that are not neutered. I’m also unable to accommodate dogs that exhibit resource guarding, excessive humping, or overly hyperactive behavior that may disrupt the group dynamic. All dogs must be up to date on their rabies and bordetella vaccines no exceptions. This helps ensure a safe and healthy environment for everyone
