Safety, trust & environment

It is important to that pets are comfortable and feel safe all conditions. I make it a rule of thumb to keep dogs on leash during public walks and around other pets. If there is a fenced in area I will make it a priority to check and see if the area is properly supervised and secure for your pet. On regular walks having fun is always number 1. If your pet wants to chill inside and needs cuddles, or wants to take an extra adventure i’m always down.

Information Sydney R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any specific needs or requirements that I should be aware of for their best care. Things like medication, behavior, feeding schedules, and energy levels.

A typical day

To stimulate your dog we will go on walks, play fetch, try out some new tricks, and visit dog parks. Some indoor activities like hide-and-seek, tug-of-war, and puzzle toys would be great fun. Also, exploring pet-friendly cafes or hiking trails can make for memorable adventures together.

Pet care experience

As a dedicated wildlife and pet caretaker with a passion for understanding and protecting animal habitats, I have spent years immersed in the wonders of the natural world. As a pet owner for over six years, I’ve deepened my appreciation for the unique bonds that form between humans and animals, whether in our homes or in the wild. Currently, I take care of my beloved rescue Siberian husky Niko. As well I spend some of my free time looking after my friend’s dogs and cats. My goal as a caregiver is to provide a safe and stimulating environment for pets' minds and bodies.
