Life-long lover of all animals!

Pet care experience

I’ve worked with animals my whole life—including but not limited to dogs, cats, horses, and reptiles. I have close to two decades of dog care and sitting experience and I love assuring owners that their pups/creatures are in good hands. I have volunteered with Lost Dog Rescue, worked as a barn manager for a Labrador breeder, and have had at least one pup of my own my whole life. I am extremely responsible and devoted to keeping pups/creatures and their owners happy. I can work around your schedule and I have a car and complete flexibility. I’m excited to meet you and your pup and build a new friendship. No dog is too big, small, spazzy or lazy. Thanks for stopping by my profile!

We felt so confident with our 2 dogs in Sydney’s care for a week. Will definitely request her again!

Sydney has walked our dog Daisy multiple times this summer because of our busy schedule, and it's been great. I'd highly recommend Sydney!

Juno had a blast playing with Sydney's dog, Miller. We got frequent and detailed updates. Would highly recommend!

Hello! Sydney is a very caring, responsible and loving care giver. She has given great care for our dog who was failing when we traveled as well as our new 6 month old lab. She picks up poop and keeps a keen eye out. They way she connects is amazing. She has watched many dogs and cats for years of family members and neighbors thru nextdoor app. It’s a pleasure that she enjoys so. I rest easily knowing she will take good care.

I care for your pets at the same level of care that I provide my pets. All pets are equal and deserve the utmost amount of love and attention. I do not have pets of my own, which gives me the flexibility that you need. BUT I have grown up with creatures my whole life. I’ve loved and cared for each and every family pet we’ve had, and have invested so much time into pets and creatures that I do not own. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats, fish, and even horses. My family bred and showed Labrador Retrievers, and I also have a large background in horses and agriculture. Anything “animals” is my type of work. You will receive experience, beyond attentive care, and ample communication regarding your pet. Thanks for stopping by!!

Information Sydney M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about your pup’s quirks and behavior. It just makes my ability to understand him or her better. No breed preferences at all. I love them all!

A typical day

Walks around the neighborhood are always a staple route, but I’m open to trail walks and hikes if you are as well. Dog parks are also an option that I would be happy to provide. My car is also dog proof (due to the many pups I have owned). Any adventure—big or small—is a great adventure!
