Your Dog’s New Best Friend While You’re Away!
Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, getting my first pup at just 5 years old. Growing up, I was always the go-to person in my family and circle of friends for dog sitting and care whenever they were out of town. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing a cozy space for your dog to relax, I love making sure every dog feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. With years of experience in caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, I understand how important it is to provide not only basic care but also companionship, playtime, and a little extra attention when needed. I’m excited to offer a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your dog, ensuring they feel right at home. Let’s chat and see how I can help your furry friend feel comfortable and cared for

Ratings and reviews
Sylva was amazing with our nervous dog Phoebe. She took great care of Phoebe and sent us regular updates and photos. I would definitely ask Sylva to look after Phoebe again and would recommend her 100%.
Sylva was again an excellent sitter for our wee dog whilst we were on holiday. He was obviously so well cared for throughout his stay and came home looking like he'd had as good a holiday as we had. She was great at keeping in touch and sharing photos and videos to show what he was up to. We'll definitely be using Sylva again.
This is the third time we've left our Murphy with Sylva. He has such a wonderful time with her, we're convinced he doesn't want to leave. Sylva is great with him; they've really bonded, and it's easy to see she truly cares for the dogs she looks after.
Murphy loves his time with Sylva. We're delighted we've found someone with whom we are completely comfortable leaving Murphy. Sylva sends updates, asks proactive questions and keeps us in the loop at all times. She's our go-to sitter.
Would definitely recommend Sylva who was absolutely brilliant with our dog Harvey when she looked after him for a weekend. Loads of updates and photos of him in the park and enjoying himself etc Would not hesitate to use Sylva again.
We’re so glad to have found Sylva. This was our first time leaving Murphy with anyone, and we were obviously nervous about it. However Sylva was great with Murphy. They seemed to hit it off instantly, and, to be honest, I think he would have happily stayed with her a lot longer. She sent lots of photos and messages during his stay, letting us know how he got on. All in all, Sylva will be our go-to for any future booking. Thanks again.

Schedule
Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! Growing up with dogs, I’ve always made time for their needs, whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or just some quiet bonding. As an active person, I love getting outside and taking dogs on adventures—whether it's a trip to the beach, a visit to the park, or a hike in nature. I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and fun, all while fitting into my flexible schedule. I treat every dog like a member of the family, so providing consistent care and ensuring they have a great time is something I truly enjoy and prioritise in my life.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, I offer a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax. I have an enclosed garden, which is perfect for dogs to safely run around, enjoy some fresh air, and get a bit of exercise in a secure area.
A typical day
I love walking up calton hill or arthur’s seat to watch the sunset. It is great exercise for me and the dog and we get to enjoy the beautiful view at the top! I also love going to the beach, I really enjoy watching the dogs play and get their zoomies out in an exciting new place.
