I love fur babies

Pet care experience

I have personal experience caring for many different breeds of dogs and cats, and I have professional experience with dog training and cat and dog care. I currently volunteer at the Humane Society in my free time, and I love learning new ways to connect with and enrich animals.

Sydney was very flexible and at our meeting both of my kiddies loved her. A big thanks for extra help and those daily pictures put my mind at rest. I recommend Rover to anyone with pets.

I would recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a dog/cat sitter. She cares for animals like they are all her own and is very reliable.

My dog simply adores Sydney. Sydney is responsible, caring and absolutely loves animals, especially dogs! She is always my first choice as a pet sitter

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience in providing care for animals in their own homes, where they are usually most comfortable. I treat all homes with respect and care, always making sure to keep a clean and safe environment for animals and for clients to come home to.

Information Sydney H. would like to know about your pet

I think it is important for any caretaker to know what a dog is comfortable with vs. what they are more reactive to. If a dog is a little more reactive to people, to other dogs, loud noises or cars - all of these things should be discussed in order for a caretaker/walker to give that dog the best care possible and always keep the dog feeling comfortable and safe.

A typical day

I love giving each dog the physical stimulation they need. Some dogs like to walk for miles & miles, some prefer to play with their favorite toy or have a game of fetch after their shorter walks - I enjoy doing both! I love walking at our local parks and trails, but also enjoy walking around neighborhoods and quieter, walkable streets.
