Former vet tech ready to Rover!
Pet care experience
My experience started early with my first dog at 5. Since then I’ve adopted 7 senior dogs, 3 young ones and foster here and there. I also had a Siamese cat for a short 17 years - he was the best! My experience extends from pet owners to being a veterinary technician for 5 years caring for healthy, injured and sick pets. I’ve also owned or lived with almost every kind of pet including a diabetic dog. I have a lot of love, experience and patience with pets. And I would be honored to help care for your pet(s) while you’re away.
Reviews
Sydne is fantastic! Hank loved her and so did I!
Sydne K. cancelled a booking after the stay began.
Sydne was great with our old boy Opie and tortoises Alan and Steve! Super communicative and shared plenty of adorable pics
Sydne is phenomenal in every way - thoughtful, detailed, caring, communicative, timely and has an absolutely wonderful energy about her. It's been an absolute blessing to have met her, and there is no one we'd trust our senior kitty with more than she. It's very hard for us to be able to travel with confidence, as our boy needs meds twice daily and has to wear various special cones. She nailed all of it perfectly, and still clearly made sure to give him love and attention. So grateful, thank you Sydne!!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard yet when walking other peoples dogs I like to have them in their regular leash and a slip leash if the owner likes because safety is first. I also walk with dog spray in the off chance we encounter an aggressive, off leash dog.
Information Sydne K. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has special needs please let me know and my canine crew and I will do our best to accommodate! Around my house the couches are free game yet if your pups aren’t allowed on yours at home I will make sure to not teach them bad habits!
A typical day
Typical day at my house is some good morning tail wags from the dogs. Then we toss on leashes and hit the streets to get in our mornings steps. We’ve got neighborhood friends we see on our walks. After the walk is time for breakfast and meds…gotta keep that arthritis at bay. Then around lunch it’s time for fetch…if the weather and heat allow. If not then we love a good treat stuffed kong for some mental stimulation.

Availability
My dogs and I go on walks most mornings to get our day started then fetch in the afternoon to keep them active…some days that’s 45 minutes and in the summer that’s 4-5 throws, woo this heat! I am accustomed to the sensitivity of medication time as well as dietary sensitivities and preferences…I have one dog who some days demands to be hand fed!
