Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to have you show me where you typically walk your dog or let them out so I can stick with that routine! Let me know about feeding and medications if applicable. I’m happy to provide text updates and cute pics if you’d like! Can discuss nail trimming and ear cleaning after a few visits if that’s something that interests you and I believe the dog’s personality would allow for that.

Sydni was amazing!!! She took care of my girl so well. I was so glad to know that she was in good hands with Sydni! Sydni is awesome with communication, and even small things as noticing May’s food bowl was empty! My girl has been tired and happy from her walks with Sydni! Thank you so much!

Sydni has been AMAZING with my golden retriever! She is so kind to both you and your dog and has always left my golden very happy. Can’t recommend her enough!

Sydni did great with my dog. She stayed in my home to watch my dog for several days while I was away, and also walked and hung out with him mid day for a few weeks. He always got so excited to see her when she came over. Sad that she moved away! Responsible, on time, sent me updates and pictures. Wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.

Let me know if your dog has special needs. I’m happy to accommodate! Experienced with puppies, senior dogs. Can trick your dog into taking pills if needed 😉 have also administered liquid meds in syringe. I’ve helped older dogs with hip issues outside using blanket sling support, and I can change dog diapers if used. I use clippers to trim nails on even-tempered dogs I’ve built trust with.
