Skills

15 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I can work with whatever setup you have, walking dogs as needed, playing with them in your yard, or bringing them places to play like the dog park if that is part of their routine!

Information Sydney L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your pets quirks. Is your dog scared of the garbage truck? Does your cat only like back scratches? The more info the better I can cater to your furry friend!

A typical day

We can go on walks, play at the park, run around the back yard, play fetch, or whatever your dog needs! If you have a cat we can play with toys, watch birds on the TV, or just spend quality time together! My family dogs like short walks followed by fetch, but the dogs I regularly sit like long walks followed by treats, water and petting! The cat I see regularly doesn’t love toys, but we spend lots of time at the scratching post and getting brushed!

Animal enthusiast ❤️

Pet care experience

I love all animals, any size, any personality, and would love to meet yours! I’ve personally owned dachshunds, great danes, karakachan farm dogs, a yorkie, a boxer, and various cats. I regularly care for friends and coworkers pets and have experience with other animals such as ducks and chickens!

Sydney is a wonderful caretaker of animals. She has taken care of my cats and dogs multiple times and has always done an amazing job. She is attentive and you can tell she really cares about the animals she watches.
