Compassionate Dog and Cat Caretaker
Pet care experience
I have grown up with animals my entire life (dogs, cats, and horses). I am passionate about the well-being of all animals. I am available for overnights, drop-in's, and walking. I have 3 years of experience training service dogs for disabled veterans and individuals with Autism. I also helped a stray cat I found (and ended up keeping) give birth to kittens, and provided care for the mother and babies for 5 months. I have lived with Labrador and Golden Retrievers for 22 years, and cats for 15 years. I am comfortable with dogs and cats of any size or personality. I am a graduate student studying Occupational Therapy & currently have one cat.
Reviews
Sydney was amazing to work with. Would highly recommend her.
Sydney was wonderful to work with. We ran into some issues at first due to it being the first time our dogs had been left alone with someone other than family. She was so gracious and worked with us to make sure the dogs were cared for. She went far above and beyond, and I would highly recommend her. By the end of the weekend the dogs were comfortable with her and having a good time. I'm so appreciative of her taking the time to not give up and go out of her way to give me peace of mind my dogs were okay while gone.
Sydney did an amazing job and did it on pretty short notice. Thank you very much for taking care of Buster and Blue.
Sydney was great with our elderly special needs pup!

Information Sydney K. would like to know about your pet
I require that all animals are up-to-date on their rabies vaccination. I prefer to know if your animal has any aggression or fear of strangers ahead of time!
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs and cats physically and mentally. I am willing to go for walks, the dog park, or play fetch! Or if you pet just wants to lay on the couch all day, I’m fine with that too! :)
