Information Sylvia G. would like to know about your pet

Bring your normal food & treats, also a collar and leash for walks, if they like that! If you have anything else needed for their day to day life (dental bones, medicine, ointments, grooming tools, wipes, etc.) please pack that as well and I’ll make sure their routine is kept the same! If you have a puppy, let me know what commands and tricks you are currently working on or want to improve so that I can spend extra time making sure they are learning great behaviors away from home!

A typical day

We love going on walks, playing fetch, cuddles; and catering to your pups’ needs and wants, we will do. We have so many toys in all sizes, textures, etc. we keep a close eye on everyone and make sure they’re all loved, comfortable, and safe. While you're away on vacation, my goal is to help your doggos have some fun vacation time as well, while maintaining any routines and schedules you set for them. They are welcome anywhere they are comfortable, but if you would prefer them not be on furniture, we have plenty of pet beds and pet couches in all sizes.

Pet care experience

I would love the opportunity to play with and care for your babies! I am a dog momma to two friendly and loving dogs. They both love to watch new friends come through the door! I have a large fenced back yard for playing and lounging. We have many toys & beds for your pups. I love having playtime and relaxing time and will love even more to send high-quality pictures and updates on how your baby is doing while you're away (I like calling myself a semi-professional dog photographer). My whole family is a huge lover of animals, we will keep them loved, relaxed, and active! Let me know if you have any questions, and I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

Sylvia and her family took care of my two dogs whilst I was away and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention they received whilst staying with her. I received multiple updates and plenty of photos to reassure me they were both doing well. Sylvia went over and above to ensure their routine was stuck to and nothing was too much trouble. I will not hesitate to use Sylvia again for my next trip.

Sylvia is an amazing person! She took the best care of my Benji ! I received reports twice a day with lots of photos and videos! My dog looked happy, what made me happy! I’m sure we’ll return again!

Highly recommend! She took amazing care of our dogs while we were away for a week. We received updates and photos, and it was clear our pups were happy, comfortable, and well loved. Coming home to happy, healthy dogs gave us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be using her again!
