Pet care experience

Strut Your Mutt!

I am a dedicated weekend volunteer at a dog shelter, where I work hands-on with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes basic obedience training, socialization, and leash handling, as well as administering various types of medications. I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs, from small breeds to a 180-pound Great Dane and a 100-pound Cane Corso puppy. I’ve also provided care for dogs with special needs, including one with only three legs. In addition to my volunteer work, I have two small dogs of my own, which has further strengthened my understanding of canine behavior and care. I am passionate about animal welfare and committed to providing every dog with the attention, patience, and care they deserve.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure they stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, walk schedules, and any special care your pet needs. I keep the space clean, secure, and calm, and I always spend quality time giving them attention, affection, and exercise. I also make sure to keep you updated with daily photos and messages for peace of mind.

Sydney has an incredible way with all animals, particularly dogs. All animals love her. She makes even timid dogs very comfortable and relaxed. She has pet-sat dogs, birds and chameleons for overnights or up to a full week. She has volunteered at animal shelters for several years having countless hours of dog walking experience with all breeds, ages and sizes. I've had her watch our two dogs on many occasions when we are out of town. Your pets are in great hands with Sydney.

Schedule

I am currently a college student so currently i dont have any pet responsibilities. But, i've grown up surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, which has given me a deep understanding and love for working with them. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of needs, from energetic puppies to slow-moving seniors, and even dogs with disabilities who need a little extra patience and care.

Before caring for your pet, it's important for me to know key details for their safety, comfort, and happiness. This includes their personality and temperament (such as if they’re shy, social, or reactive), any medical needs like allergies or medications, and their feeding and potty routines. I also like to know about any triggers or fears, how they behave on walks, what commands they know, and any ongoing training or house rules. Lastly, having your vet’s information and emergency contacts on hand helps me be fully prepared for anything. The more I know, the better I can tailor my care to your pet’s unique needs!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
