Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive, caring & insured sitters
I (Sylvia) grew up with dogs and cats and cared for them since I was young. Micheal grew up with cats and had the pleasure of raising his own husky. We have had lots of experience with all different breeds and sizes of puppies/kittens to older dogs/cats. We have cats of our own and will eventually have a dog again, but for now we get to spend time with the dogs we care for through my business and Rover! Your pets will be treated as if they were our own - with love and care. We will never accept a booking that we are not 100% sure that we can handle because your pets deserve the best, and we want to ensure that’s what they will get! We will follow their schedules and routines to the best of our ability and only make changes when approved by you. We are available for services anywhere in Vancouver/North Portland or surrounding areas! Locations further than 5 miles from us will have an additional charge based on distance. Our constant care services have a greater service radius of 15 miles. Feel free to contact us with any questions. Thank you for considering us to care for your pets while you are away.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
She was amazing and took the time to let my little Ziggy get comfortable with her. she was able to help with very short notice and that was a huge life saver and was communicating the whole time I will definitely be seeking her assistance again in the future

This was the second time our pups stayed with Sylvia and Michael, and it’s the second 5 star review. They do a great job caring for the animals, making sure they get exercise/stimulation, and providing updates each day. As soon as pulled into the driveway the dogs remembered them and were excited to say hello, which is one of the most reassuring things you can see when dropping off before a trip. Highly recommend!
Sylvia is the best cat sitter! super responsive and always takes the best care of our babies


Sylvia and Michael took great care of Wilczek and she could be her usual self with them, making it so much easier to relax during our vacation! They also regularly shared updates and photos, so we never had to worry! Thank you!


Sylvia and Michael did wonderful job staying with our little Jazzy June. Got lots of pictures and she seemed very happy to have them as her personal servants!

Sylvia and Michael were outstanding with our pup while we were away. They sent us updates and pictures a couple times a day during their stay with Ash. We chose to have them stay in our home so Ash would be more comfortable and his routine kept. Last year we boarded Ash with a local dog boarder and he was very sad and subdued for about a week or so after pickup. When we returned this year it was like we had never left. He was happy to see us and showed no sign of being upset. I would recommend Sylvia and Michael to anyone looking for great care of your animals and your home. We hope they will be available next year to care for Ash.

Schedule
Over my years in pet care I’ve come across all kinds of different ways that people care for their furry friends, and we would like to do our best to keep their care the same! We offer multiple schedule options for house sitting to best fit the needs of your pets. Please review the price list (located in photos) to learn more and see which one will work best for you! Extra care options include 2 pets, 3+ will incur applicable additional pet fees. I (Sylvia) work a flexible part-time/hybrid job, and Micheal works from home full time so he will be a big part of extra care bookings. All bookings that include a holiday are subject to the holiday rates. *New clients that include the schedule they would like for their pets in their request will receive a surprise discount!* 😊
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Daycare/Boarding - Offered in our home for cats, and dogs. There is an unfenced patio/yard for potty breaks and play time. There are cats in the home that can be kept away if your pet is not friendly with cats. Don’t worry, the cats have an entire floor to themselves and will still get the attention and love they need! Please bring your pets food, favorite toys, or anything you think would make their stay more comfortable. We have food/water bowls, beds, and they will be allowed on the furniture if that is what they are used to.
Pets
A typical day
If your pets are active and playful you can let us know what kind of activities they like, and if you have preferred routes for walks or parks you take them to. If they aren't active or playful then we can spend time lounging with them.
