Animal Lover at Your Service

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs my entire life and I used to house sit for a family who had 3 dogs (a German Shephard, a Pug and a Bulldog) back when I lived in Michigan. I am very comfortable with dogs that need to take medication and know how to handle situations where dogs have seizures because the bulldog I babysat for had to take medication every 12 hours for his seizures. No dog great or small is too much for me to handle because I have volunteered at the Humane Society of West Michigan and can fully appreciate giant breeds. I have received all the proper training in how to walk big dogs and put harnesses on when needed. I love all types of breeds and I hope to hear from you soon!

Sydney was great! I was super nervous about leaving my cats sister is the only person who has previously watched him. He has separation anxiety and isn’t the friendliest. Sydney was great though, sent me pictures, turned cat tv back on for him, and playing with him while respecting his boundaries. Thanks again!!!

Sydney did a lovely job watching our baby boy. She was so sweet with him and very good about giving him his medication. Sent us pictures and answered all our texts. We were very lucky to have her over the busy holiday vacation time. Highly recommend her!

Sydney was GREAT! Very responsive and proactive about setting up the pet sitting, and my shy cat warmed up to her almost instantly. Your pets will be in good hands!

Information Sydney H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have to take any medication before hand: the steps and procedures that you typically take when administering their medication.

I enjoy brushing, petting, and walking dogs. I am still learning the Suffolk area, but will be walking in your neighborhood if that is what they are familiar with.
