Safety, trust & environment

Enrichment is an enormously important factor in the care of animals and it is unfortunate to see how often it gets overlooked. Mental and physical stimulation is crucial for the welfare of animals. Giving animals the opportunity to be curious and explore new things (toys, scents, places, etc.) adds a world of difference in their happiness. I would love to put the effort forth in providing whatever enrichment opportunities that work best for the animal and their owner. This can look like teaching tricks, car rides, runs, etc.

Information Sydney B. would like to know about your pet

I welcome ALL pets and all the quirks they come with! However, I would like to be made aware if your critter has any behavioral issues such as aggression or anxiety. Animals who struggle emotionally require special attention and extra TLC, so I want to ensure that I approach them in a way that is not overbearing to them. It is also important for me to know of any current health complications and/or if they have a significant medical history. Any behavioral/medical issues are absolutely NOT A PROBLEM, I just want to be made fully aware of the situation to ensure I take all of the proper precautions. I would be beyond pleased to spend time with your fur baby and give them all the love and kindness they deserve!

A typical day

Bonding with animals and figuring out what makes them happy is my passion. Getting to know their personalities and influencing their silly side just sets my soul on fire. I’m always finding new ways to stimulate pets through games, exercise, and random things like playing wolf/cat sounds on YouTube. I will always go the extra mile to spark curiosity and engagement.

Pets

Animal Science Major at UConn! :)

Pet care experience

As a skilled equestrian who handles 1200 lbs horses on a daily basis and has grown up with rambunctious german shepherds, I have developed great confidence in my ability to handle and care for animals of all kinds. I am not intimidated by breed/size or any behavioral quirks they may have! I am well-versed in administering treatments/medications for those with disabilities or medical conditions. I have personal experience of caring for senior and/or disabled dogs. My education at the University of Connecticut as an Animal Science major has heavily supplemented my knowledge of animal behavior, expanding my skillset to better understand my animal companions. I spend my free time using positive reinforcement to train my cats, dogs, an abundance of horses, and even a cow. If the owner is interested, I would be absolutely delighted to offer my training services as well! I am extremely adamant on animal welfare and I never fail to prioritize an animal’s needs. If you are interested, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I am always excited to make new furry friends!🐾💕
