Pet care experience

Easy-going, dependable, dog lovin'

I have had cats and dogs my whole life, and they have enriched my life so much. I volunteered at animal shelters, working with dogs of all kinds, and socializing with the cats. I regularly walked dogs and was a dog/house sitter for over a year, then took a brief hiatus while I was working full time and am getting back into dog sitting now that I have a house of my own, and can offer boarding services! I have also had two puppies over my life that I helped raise and take care of into their old age.

Sydney did amazing with our honey. She kept us updated on what they were doing and sent pictures and even a video. Honey was so happy the entire time and she was even tired when she came home which tells us she had a great time. Sydney worked with us and our schedule as well. I cannot recommend her enough! Honey is a very anxious girl and I felt completely relaxed leaving her with Sydney.

Sydney was friendly, a clear communicator, and took great care of my sweet, somewhat rowdy pup!

My Sophie is high energy and still young dog and she was willing to take the challenge. Sydney was very kind and put my fears to rest. She sent pictures several times a day with updates. She has a large fenced in yard and also took Sophie on walks, just fantastic!

Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.

Schedule

I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to spend loving your critters, and my partner works fully remote so he is available to let dogs in and out while I am gone! We have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to run and play, plus we love going on walks when we have dogs visiting us. We have two cats, Swiper and Bilbo, who are both familiar with dogs, and can be shy but very friendly. They also have their own hideaway which houses their food and litter that dogs do not have access to in case they need some time to themselves. My mom's dog, Juno, also visits us frequently, and she LOVES having playmates around and gets along with dogs of all sizes and breeds.

I make sure to take swift action on any problems that may arise, and communicate frequently in detail. You can rest easy knowing I treat any critter in my care as if they were one of my own, and you will also receive picture updates every day, usually multiple times a day.

Pets

A typical day

I will extend the same love and care I have for my own critters to yours! I love going to dog parks, letting your dog explore the smells of your neighborhood, and playing backyard games with your pup. I am also willing to take jogs with high-energy dogs, and/or run them around the yard.
