As long as I have known Sydney, she has been the most compassionate animal caretaker that I have ever met. From guinea pigs to dogs to cats, small and large, Sydney has managed to provide the highest quality of care. I firmly believe that if a fly's wing was hurt, she would do the most to nurse it back to health. I cannot recommend her enough for any assistance you may need.

To whom it may concern, I have known Sydney since she was 12 years old as we lived in the same area. Since I met her I was impressed by her skills, patience, and charisma in taking care of multiple animals. She was so young but solely responsible for taking care of 2 guinea pigs, one Brazilian boa, one lizard, and one spider. Exotic animals that she cared. managed She was absolutely highly involved with the family dogs and cats. Impressive! It is hard for me now to imagine how she did it so gracefully and effortlessly. Trips to petsmart were frequent. Later, she impressed me, even more, when she told me stories about how her favorite cat had kittens in her room, including one that was not doing well. She does not like zoos and pretty much convinced me about the negatives of a zoo. I teased her when she later volunteered at the Rochester zoo to monitor, track and report a sea lion's behavior for hours daily as part of a research project. In summary, I have met lots of people who love animals but Sydney stands out. As you see, I am very enthusiastic about Sydney' ;love, experience and skills caring for animals.
