Your Pet Deserves a Vacation Too

**Relocating to Oklahoma May 15** I’ve been around dogs my entire life, from chihuahuas to energetic bird dogs and various large breeds(my favorite). Growing up, my family always had dogs in the home, and each one had a unique personality. I especially love German Shepherds, my shepherd Ruger recently passed, he was the best boy. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including friends’ pets while they were away. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs, and I always make sure to provide a safe, respectful environment and keep dogs separated if needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable and happy. When caring for others’ pets I treat them like my own. I can cuddle on the couch with them or take them on a run(or maybe a light jog lol). While you’re away my goal is to make them comfortable enough that they forget you’re not there and for you to feel relaxed knowing they’re being well taken care of.

Safety, trust & environment

I always open/close the doors carefully to avoid any escapees, and leash any pups that go outside in an unfenced area. I will also remove collars and toys before crating to avoid a choking hazard unless otherwise requested. When feeding dogs with food aggression, I feed them at separate times/areas. If you have waste bags or a scooper I will also help keep your yard clean while you’re away. Before booking a service with me, I am also available for meet and greets to make sure your friend is comfortable

Sylvie was wonderful watching my puppy over the weekend! She was so accommodating in taking in a young puppy and made sure he was well cared for. I really appreciated the daily pictures and updates—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely trust Sylvie to watch him again!
