Pet care experience

Pet parent of fur, scales, & fins!

Hey there! I'm Sydney, you can call me Syd. I'm an experienced pet owner of dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles! I grew up around horses as well, and have recently taken young chicks into my care. I love all animals of every shape! I'm confident caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, and I'm great with all forms of walking; harness, collar, gentle leader, and so on. Need me to walk your Bengal? No worries, I can harness the most stubborn of animals! I have two dogs at the moment; a bumbling Bulldog and a lively Malnois mix. I have two cats as well, a kingsnake, and many fish living in flourishing bioactive aquariums. No matter the species, all of my pets are given the same love and care, and I'll give this same love and care to your furbabies too! I'm experienced administering various medications as well, and I'm not deterred by the unfixed or those that are super young. Your puppies or kittens will be in safe and loving hands!

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, as well as getting finicky kitties to take medication! I will follow care instructions given to me by the letter to ensure that your furbaby's routine stays as unshaken as possible while you’re away, and so you can come back home like you were never gone! I am always open to text messages and I will offer as many updates as requested to ensure that their time, and your time away, is as stress free as possible.

Probably the 12th time Sydney has cared for my cat in the past year. She always comes through for us with excellent and on time care. Always takes the time to take him outside after his feeding and litter box attention. She is an exceptional caretaker!

You could not ask for a better person to Drop-in on your pet than Sydney! I have used her more than a dozen times and every time she has exceeded my expectations. Whether it’s her informative and entertaining visit summery’s or the many candid shots of my cat she make you feel as if you are there.

Sydney was very prompt on all the visits and was well liked by my Siamese cat. She was also flexible when I requested an extra dropin. She took some great pictures of my boy and her narratives were rather funny. I would definitely use her again and recommend her highly.

I like to know the typical day to day schedule of my clients! Do they have a specific time that they’re typically fed breakfast or dinner? Do they have any special care requirements? (Medication, special food, etc.) What are their quirks? Do they have anything that they really enjoy? Or things that they don’t particularly care for?
