Highlights

Enhanced background check

Pet care experience

Friend of all animals

I've grown up taking care of family dogs and have sought out opportunities to stay connected with animals, both dogs and cats, since moving away! I've fostered under-socialized puppies and experienced the reward of slowly training these pups. I also have experience cat-sitting and, similarly, can appreciate slowly earning the love and trust of each pet. I am patient and genuinely appreciate connecting with each cat and dog!

Qualifications

3 years of experience

Safety, trust & environment

I first and foremost provide space for each cat and/or dog to adjust to my presence, either in their home or a new setting. Once they've acclimated to me, I can be flexible on training per the owner's request or simply making sure that each pet gets some exercise, mental stimulation, is fed and gets bathroom breaks!

Sydney is the first person I’d think of if I needed someone to take care of my cat( I’d even put her in my will if I’d die and he was still alive). She is absolutely amazing at taking care of animals. Perfect person on multiple levels, if you need your hyperactive dog to be walked 5 miles or more, she is incredibly fit to do that. To also a knitter who can sit and relax with your lap dog or cat. She is also very responsible with being able to take care of your animal if they need specific meal times or regimes. If I could post some photos on here of her and some animals I would, because they speak for themselves, dogs and cat just absolutely adore her.
