Safety, trust & environment

Currently I’m not available to take pets into my home. I have a senior kitty who I am still getting to know and my main goal is to keep her comfortable and safe until I learn how she is around other animals.

Information Sydney H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that I can accommodate! I can take care of/walk reactive dogs, dogs with special medical needs, and can give high energy dogs a longer playtime.

A typical day

I’ll base what we do on the individual pet but I’m happy to play, walk, run, or cuddle as needed! I’ll throw the ball as many times as they want or let them sniff that tree to find out all the neighborhood gossip!

I like big mutts and I cannot lie

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets since the age of five, and have loved taking care of animals since! I’ve helped take care of plenty of dogs, big and small. I’ve owned Alaskan Malamutes, Labradors, Dobermans, etc and loved to walk them all. I’m good at getting pets to take their medicine and love to give seniors the extra care and attention they deserve. I’ve had several dogs since they were puppies and have potty trained them and taught them neat tricks too! I’m familiar with dog puzzles and other mentally stimulating toys (gotta keep those brains busy!) I’m also comfortable with reactive dogs-I owned an 85lb reactive dog and took him safely on walks and hikes with me. The safety/comfort of the dog and any other people/animals is of the utmost importance. I promise to take care of your baby like they’re my baby.

Sydney was fantastic! Our dog Nova can have a difficult time sometimes warming up to strangers but she really liked Sydney right away! Sydney brought over treats for our dogs and took really good care of them! Thank you!

Sydney took such good care of my dog! He is very reactive and sensitive so it’s been hard to find someone who isn’t family to take care of him. I really appreciate how Sydney was very patient with him and was able to get him to go outside even when he was hesitant at first. They were also great about communicating with me and sending photos! I’m so glad I found someone who really gets reactive dogs.

Sydney was great with our cat Mushroom. Went above and beyond to care for our shy boy. Would definitely book again! Thanks
