I work Monday through Friday in an office, but I'm home most weekends. If you need me to watch your dog for a long weekend starting Friday morning, I can easily make that work out if given notice. I will always happily take your pooch out for a walk. I do prefer small to medium dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

Care provided depends on the dog. I have doggie doors, so if the dog is potty trained, they can have free range of the house. If the dog is not potty trained, they will be confined to a smaller area of the house, but still have access to outside. I can walk, bathe, and crate your dog if you prefer they be crated.

Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Information Sylvia C. would like to know about your pet

Do they have any special needs? Do they chew shoes or dig up yards? I can handle that, but just need to be aware of any bad habits ahead of time so I can carefully monitor them.

A typical day

I'll be happy to take your fur baby on a nice long walk. I can give them a bath or just play fetch. If you have a senior dog who just wants to sleep, that's okay, too. I actually love cozing up with them while lounging around watching TV, too.

This is my second booking with Sylvia, my first was a year ago when I still had two dogs. Today she saved my skin majorly!!! I had booked her so I could go to a wedding but I ended up reading the invitation wrong and she was able to accommodate me by taking Elliot earlier so I could make it to the wedding on time. She also sent me pictures and videos of my pup, kept me updated and walked him when she totally wasn’t required to. She is amazing and I absolutely one hundred percent will keep using her services.

Super sweet and responsive. My dog is a bit neurotic and she cared for him so well. Would definitely go back!

Just picked up my dogs from Sylvia’s and they were as happy as can be! It makes me feel extremely comfortable when my dogs are happy because I know they were well taken care of. Prior to their day with Sylvia, she communicated with me about their stay and scheduled time for a video call so she could get to know them. She asked questions about Elliot’s luxating patella and mentioned that she had doggy stairs in case he needed them. She also sent photo updates of the dogs. Would absolutely use her services again!
