Pet care experience

animal lover and loved by animals

Growing up I always wanted to be a large animal vet, unfortunately that’s not the path I took but nonetheless I’ve been taking care of of all different kinds of animals over the past 15 years including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, frogs and fish and for awhile even a duck! I currently have one senior dog that requires a little extra TLC whether that be medications or his specialized diet. I lost my soul dog over a year ago and at the end of her life she was very sick so I also have the experience when it comes to senior/hospice animals and understand how important good care can be. I also have a three-year-old dog with lots of energy that I harness with extra long walks or extra time spent training, all things I’d be willing to do for you and your dog! One of my mottos in life is to treat others how you want to be treated, and for me the same applies when it comes to caring for your dog.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Respect is huge to me in every aspect of my life and that is the same when it comes to dealing with clients homes/pets. I understand how hard it can be to trust people with your fur baby, so I want to do everything I can to make it easy for you. In your home i’ll ensure I respect it as if it were my own. You can ensure I will follow all instructions and that privacy and safety will be maintained. When it comes to my house I have a fenced yard and a loving fur family who are always excited to welcome guests! I live in a great neighbourhood located near lots of parks and trails! I also have no problem with commuting and my car is set up to be dog safe in case of emergencies or incase you have a big dog with some extra energy that likes hiking!!

Sydney did an absolute fantastic job taking care of my dog and my place while I was away for the weekend. I would definitely recommend!

Sydney took excellent care of our two Frenchies while we were away, with constant updates and photos. When we returned the house was spotlessly clean, and I’m pretty sure the boys were disappointed when they saw it was us and not Sydney. Would love to have her sit again!

Sydney took wonderful care of our anxious dog. She was very thoughtful, sent us lots of updates and catered to our dog’s special needs. She is incredibly responsible and respectful! We came home to a calm, well loved dog and a very clean house! She really went the extra mile to make sure our dog was looked after. I’d highly recommend her.

Sydney is wonderful, reliable, dependable and we couldn't be more happier. Especially my wife, giving us reassurance and peace of mind. Sydney is everything and more from her profile reviews and you'll find this as well. Excellent communication with photos and video as well! Sydney did drop-ins and housesat for our 2 little pups. We will be using her services from here on in! :)
