Pet care experience

loving pets like they're my own!

Hi! I'm a registered nurse and lifelong animal lover who provides dependable, compassionate care for dogs and cats. My nursing background has made me detail-oriented, patient, and attentive to changes in behavior, so you can feel confident your pet is in caring hands and very well loved! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting, and I'm comfortable administering medications and caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I'll follow your pet's routine, respect anything your pet does that makes them who they are, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. You can always count on reliable communication, photo updates, and lots of love for your furry family member!

Dog Walking • Aug 26, 2026

Sydnie and Jake are the best! I feel like they are both great with dogs and so kind and considerate. It makes me feel great that she’s a nurse and not only gets my lifestyle (night shift) but is trustworthy. I love the little paragraph that they write about how the walk went and the pics they give after the walk. & my mini dachshund Chico loves them!

Hi Sydnie and Jack! Thanks so much for taking great care of Jinx and Winx while we were gone. We looooove the pictures you guys take and the little summary you write after each visit. Our little family always look forward to seeing the pictures and summary after each visit! The cats seemed excited to see you guys again! We can’t say thank you enough! 💖

Sydnie is a wonderful sitter and we'd be thrilled to book with her again. We have two Maine Coon cats that demand a lot of attention and care. She was patient and attentive to them and we could tell the cats had a great time through all of the updates and photos. I think they might actually miss Sydnie more than us now :)

Schedule

As a nurse with a flexible schedule, I work just three days a week, giving me plenty of time to focus on my passion for caring for animals. My availability allows me to provide dependable, attentive care through dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I'll tailor each visit to their unique needs and routine. With my genuine love for animals, you can trust that your fur babies will receive the attention, compassion, and care they deserve while you're away!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority when caring for your beloved pets. I ensure a secure and stress-free environment by carefully following your instructions for feeding, exercise, and daily routines. I’m vigilant about keeping your home and pets safe by checking doors, gates, and surroundings to prevent accidents or escapes. I stay attentive to your pet’s behavior, health, and comfort, recognizing signs of stress or illness and responding promptly if needed.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet is unique, so I tailor each visit to their personality and routine! For dogs, that may include walks, playtime, enrichment, or plenty of belly rubs. For cats, I enjoy interactive play, treats (if approved), brushing, or simply keeping them company if they prefer a quieter visit. I'll also make sure meals are served on schedule, fresh water is available, litter boxes are scooped or potty breaks are provided, and any medications are given as directed. My goal is to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and I'll always send photo updates of what we end up doing :)
