Safety, trust & environment

Creating a calm, pet-friendly, and safe space is my top priority. I keep hazardous items out of reach, use gates if needed, and follow any routines your pet is used to. In your home, I respect your space and maintain your pet's usual environment to reduce stress. I always keep a close eye on them, provide regular updates, and follow your instructions carefully.

Information Sydney W. would like to know about your pet

It's helpful to know your pet's routine, temperament, medical needs, and any triggers or fears. I also like to know their favorite toys, commands they respond to, and how they behave around other animals. The more I know, the better I can provide care that feels familiar and safe for them.

A typical day

A typical day includes a mix of activity and rest, tailored to each pet's needs. We will go for walks, play games like fetch or tug of war, and enjoy some quiet time. If your pet enjoys training, I can reinforce good habits with fun, positive-reinforcement sessions. My goal is to keep them mentally and physically engaged.

Pet care experience

I have had years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages- from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away.

Sydney checks in with photos of our dogs, who always seem to be very happy. We came home again to a neat home with everything as we like. Highly recommend Sydney for your pet care and we look forward to having her stay with our pups again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
