Pet care experience

I am responsible and trustworthy, I know how important pets are and take care of each how I would want my own to be cared for. I take making your dog comfortable seriously and treat it as I would my other animal jobs. I like to keep a dog's routine as normal as possible (aside from maybe some extra fun!) so as not to add any extra stress. I am very observant and will keep you as updated as you want to be. As a Zookeeper I was responsible for the husbandry of multiple canine species. I worked at a boarding/daycare facility where I monitored group play, supervised feeding and administering medication, as well as grooming. I work full time at a shelter in Encinitas so if your dogs are used to you working all day, or don't mind being left alone until late afternoon/early evening, I would return immediately and give them all the attention and exercise they needed!

This is the first time Sydnie has stayed with our two standard poodles. We were gone for a week, and Sydnie stayed at our home in the evenings, fed the dogs before she went to work, returned in the evening to feed the dogs again. We have bird feeders, and she kept them filled. She watered my herb garden and kept it alive. She managed the dogs when our lawn man was coming. She also managed the dogs when our cleaning ladies were coming. Our of our dogs needed antibiotics, and she managed the prescription needs perfectly. She brought in our newspapers so that we didn't have to cancel them. When we returned last night, our dogs greeted us and looked great. The home looked great. She dealt with a water leak from our refrigerator very responsibly. We will definitely request Sydnie in the future, and I would recommend her highly!!

Sydnie was great. Easy to reach, was on time, stayed in contact with me while I was gone. And let me know how MiMi was doing. I will absolutely use her again and recommend her. Kristi

Information Sydnie G. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know about any allergies, food related or skin and if it's ok to medicate, with benadryl, for instance. I would like to know if they have any behavioral tendencies that are unique to the dog so that I don't put them in a compromising situation. I tend to gravitate towards bigger dogs, bully breeds specifically, but am not very particular.

A typical day

Depending on the area, I usually like to find trails to walk on or go to the beach. I like to make sure they're as stimulated as possible so that they're too tired to miss you! I do run to workout so if you have a dog that requires a lot of activity I'm willing to take them on a 5 or 6 mile trot.
