Highlights
Pet care experience
Unending love for your furry baby!
Hello! Whether you need someone to walk your dogs twice a day, check on your kitty, or house sit for a week, I’d love to help! I have several years of experience with both dogs and cats at various shelters including the SPCA and Burlington Animal Services. In addition to basic pet care including feeding, cleaning, and socializing, I have quite a bit of experience being a medical foster. Caring for injured animals and administering medications isn’t an issue for me. I’ve owned cats, dogs, and various farm animals throughout my life so I’m very comfortable caring for any animal’s needs. If you have a pet I haven’t yet cared for I would be more than happy to learn how to care for your baby as well as you would. I'm also happy to bathe your pets for free, I just clean their shampoo and brush. I absolutely adore animals and am really looking forward to getting to know yours! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions! I grew up with four high-energy terriers, so I’m very used to making sure that both pets and people are always safe in any given area. When I enter a home, I always open the door slowly with my leg blocking the gap to prevent excited pets from rushing out. Food or choking hazards are always kept out of reach either on counters or in cabinets and I’m completely comfortable with security measures like alarms and in-home cameras. My pets are a huge part of my life so I completely understand wanting to protect them to the best of your ability.

Safety, trust & environment
When housesitting, at least 80% of my time will be dedicated to your pets. I have to run errands from time to time, but other than that, I stay focused on them! I lock all doors and windows when I leave, at night, and generally during the day, and your home will look exactly how you left it! Regardless of the type of booking, I’m always very careful when I walk in to prevent animals from bolting outside.
Ratings and reviews
Sydney was amazing! Our dogs can be little drama queens and Sydney had the patience and understanding of that!
Sydney did a great job watching our dogs, even with overly complex feeding instructions. Our dogs took to her quickly and were very well cared for. We would definitely recommend Sydney to watch your dogs, and would hire her to watch our dogs again!
Sydney is an absolute wonderful dog sitter. My two pups lived their best life while in her care. She is super communicative and sends picture updates. I missed my pups while I was away, but I don’t think they missed me because they had Sydney to hang out with! Thanks for everything Sydney, you’re the best!
We rebooked Sydney for another overnight stay and everything went smoothly. She kept us in the loop with everything and followed all our directions! She sent pictures and our pups clearly love her! House was immaculate once again. Definitely booking again 😃
We left for vacation in such a tizzy I forgot to leave notes, mention of construction workers, etc for Sydney however, she prevailed!!!! I was completely relaxed knowing she was there with our four legged baby. Thank you so very much! Highly recomend this girl!
Sydney was great to our pups! She came for a meet and greet on her own time and made sure she was a good fit prior! During our trip Sydney kept us updated the whole time and sent pictures! We returned home to an immaculate house and tired pups— what more can you ask for?!! We will be rebooking for any future trips ♥️
