Just Here for the Cuddles
Pet care experience
For most of my life I've been asked by friends, coworkers, and friends-of-friends to take care of their animals because they knew they could trust me to love them as they would themselves. I've cared for both cats and dogs from a few hours a day to multiple days overnight, and even once got to live with and care for my coworker's two dogs for a month while they were travelling. I was certainly sad when that came to an end as we got used to each other's company. I've also cared for elderly animals, taken care of neo-natal kittens, and given intravenous medicine for diabetes and vaccines. Last year I was lucky enough to house/pet sit at a friend's urban farm where I cared for their three chickens and two ducks, which was so fun! Such kooky birds, I loved it and got way too attached. Other than stealing as many cuddles as the dog or cat will allow, I diligently follow owners' directions, play with the fur babies until they are tuckered out, am able to administer medicine when needed, and am happy to take long walks and spend an afternoon at a dog park.
Reviews
Sidra is fantastic. She spent quality time giving our cats attention and playing with them. She provided us thorough updates and made us feel at ease that our cats and house were being cared for.
Sidra was wonderful! She watched my moms black lab along with my little pug for over a week. We met before and it was immediately clear she is very comfortable around animals She communicated the whole time and was very flexible with schedule changes. I never had a thing to worry about and I think our dogs miss her already :)
Normally I hate writing testimonials, but I jumped at the chance to write one for Sidra. I have known Sidra for over 10 years. She has proven herself reliable, considerate and ethical. Finding someone that truly cares about your pet and will take care of them as well as you do is like finding a needle in a haystack, which is why I am so grateful I found Sidra. Such a genuinely good, kind, person and has taken such good care of my babies. There is no one I'd trust more with my pets, nor anyone I could recommend more highly than Sidra. If you're lucky enough to book her, I guarantee you're mind will be at ease.
Sidra is the best choice to care for your pet as she loves every animal as if they were her own. Sidra’s own cat gets the best of everything — all the love, the healthiest food, and so many snuggles. Sidra has fostered kittens and babysat my own dog before. Every time I go away, I know Sidra will make sure my pup is never lonely and send me plenty of photos and updates so I know they’re both having a good time. Sidra is the perfect choice to watch your furry friend!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am extremely considerate of other people's privacy and boundaries, so when in your home I will be very respectful and leave no trace of my presence (other than maybe leaving the space cleaner than when I arrived!).
Home
Information Sidra R. would like to know about your pet
I have handled dogs of all personalities and comfort levels, but it is very important for me to know their level of tolerance of people and other dogs. This info helps me keep your pup, and others, safe and happy.
A typical day
Your fur baby will get loads of cuddles! I love to play with cats, particularly with feather toys, to pique their primitive hunting nature. Your dog and I will do as much activity as you and they allow, including walks to the park, playing fetch, hanging out in the sunshine, etc.
