Patient Pet Care

Hi! I’m Sydney! I work full-time at the Indy Zoo and provide pet care on the side. I’ve always had a deep love for animals! Over the last 5 years, I’ve cared for shy cats, puppies, senior dogs who need medications and extra help, and pets with anxiety, providing calm and patient care tailored to their needs.

Sydney was amazing! Brew was quite expressive when meeting her yet she was so prepared and excited to play with him. She was so communicative the entire time and seemed to really click with the Weenies. Would absolutely book again!

Sydney was amazing with Rocco! It was below freezing outside, but she still went above and beyond to make sure he was still well exercised and was still having fun. We got regular updates which was awesome! Rocco tends to be really shy with strangers, but he warmed up to her quickly and looked like he had a great time! We will utilize Sydney again 💕

Sydney was a great sitter for us. She was very communicative/responsive and sent daily photos. She was also flexible with pick up times and let us come by a couple hours earlier than originally scheduled when we had a small change of plans.

Sydney took great care of Nike and shared lots of updates and pics! Nike seemed to have a wonderful time while we were gone.

Schedule

Pet care fits perfectly into my routine as I have lots of free time in the mornings and evenings to walk, play with, and care for animals. I dedicate focused time to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety and cleanliness in both my home and client’s homes. I maintain secure environments, follow specific care instructions, and create calm spaces especially suited for pets with anxiety, ensuring pets feel comfortable and relaxed.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day includes lots of playtime, walks (I can go far!), and calm hangouts. I also find time for quiet moments—if your pet enjoys meditation or calm energy, I’ll match that too. Every pet is different, so I tailor the fun and care to their unique personality!

I love to know about your pets routine and favorites, including toys, walk location, and treats. I enjoy bonding, but need to know about bite history, anxieties, medical needs, or if your pet is reactive.
