Safety, trust & environment

I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, or plenty of affection. I’m comfortable administering basic oral medications if needed, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. I treat every home with respect and keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for during walks.

Information Sydney C. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know your pet’s routine, energy level, and temperament, along with any specific likes or dislikes. I also appreciate details about feeding instructions/allergies, leash behavior, and how they interact with other dogs or people. Please let me know about any special needs or behavioral quirks as well, such as anxiety, reactivity, or sensitivities, so I can adjust my care and approach to keep your pet safe and happy while you’re away.

A typical day

During walks, I focus on making sure every dog gets the right mix of exercise, attention, and fun. Depending on their energy level and personality, we might go on a relaxed or brisk walk, explore new smells, or play games like fetch. For more laid-back pups, I’m happy to spend time with gentle play, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make each visit enjoyable and stress free so your dog feels happy and comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs for family and friends for many years, with experience handling dogs of all sizes, from a 6-lb chihuahua to a 100-lb bullmastiff. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, and spending quality playtime with them to keep them happy and engaged. I also have my own 1 year old puppy, which has given me daily, hands-on experience with routines, care, and very basic training. I truly enjoy caring for dogs and always strive to make sure they feel safe/happy and are well cared for.

Sydney was excellent! I sent my request super last minute and she replied quickly and agreed to help us out. She was communicative, thoughtful, and sent lots of pics and videos (the best). Would absolutely rebook!

Sydney was great! Dependable, responsible, good communication and my dog loved her. I asked her about fitting in a second walk and she was very accommodating. Plus she walked further than another walket which I appreciated. I will use her again

Sydney Has spent a lot of time building a relationship with my dogs. My babies are older and need extra attention and care and she has shown them so much love. When Sydney comes to the door they run to her and get excited. She takes time with them on walks and walks slow and will even push my oldest in a stroller as needed. Sydney loves dogs and is kind and patient. I would recommend her services to anyone.
