Stay at Home Dog Mom

Aloha~ My name is Sydney and I am a HUGE dog lover, always have been. I grew up with multiple dogs in the house, and now own my own lil fur baby Jackson (German Shepherd). I have experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and some training (not certified). I've worked at pet boarding facilities and also volunteer at the Humane Society when I am able. I am full of energy and if comfortable will ensure to scope out some cool-safe settings to bring your dog too. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur baby!

Schedule

I am currently a full time college student so my schedule is pretty flexible since most of my studies can be done remote. I can also be available to dog sit over weekends.

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to watch your pets at your home. I am very good about scouting cool and fun walking trails nearby your home. I will ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise throughout the day!

Pets

A typical day

A typical day while dog sitting is all about fun, comfort, and keeping your pup happy! We start the day with a nice walk early in the morning—before the sun gets too warm—perfect for sniffing around and stretching those legs. During the day, we spend time playing in the yard where your dog can splash around in a small doggy pool or chase the sprinkler spray for some extra fun. If your pup is staying at my home for daycare, they’ll get to play tug of war and burn off energy with my playful dog, Jax. We end the day with another walk in the evening when it cools down, so your pup stays active and relaxed. Lots of love, playtime, and snuggles in between!

I ask that all pets have up-to-date vaccine records, especially rabies, bordetella, and distemper/parvo. It’s helpful to know their feeding schedule, any dietary restrictions, and if they’re on any medications or have allergies. I also like to be aware of any behavioral concerns—such as food or toy aggression, leash or dog reactivity, or anything else unique to their personality—so I can provide the best care. Knowing what comforts them, like favorite toys or routines, helps me make their stay feel just like home. Lastly, I ask for your emergency contact info and preferred vet or emergency clinic, along with any house rules or training preferences you'd like me to follow
