Highlights
Pet care experience
Paws and relax
I’m a calm and caring pet sitter with experience looking after both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for my mum’s Bichon Frisés since they were puppies, and growing up, I had a Yorkshire Terrier-Dachshund mix and a Turkish Angora cat. I’m comfortable handling different pet personalities and adapting to their needs. I’ve also helped friends with their dogs when needed. My focus is on providing a familiar and reassuring environment while their owners are away.

Buddy had such a lovely time he didnt want to come home! Meet n greet helped calm the anxiety of someone new looking after buddy, felt very reassured and recieved updated during his day with Sylvia. Would reccomend!
Sylvia is a great sitter, I couldn’t recommend her enough. Albie has been going to Sylvia regularly for the past year and he is always happy to go. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Albie over the last year. It has been so good to know that he is always safe and happy with you. We’re going to miss you.
Dilla has stayed a few times with Sylvia now, but on this occasion over night for the first time. Sylvia as always was very accommodating, lots of walks and play time and kept us updated. Thanks so much!
Another great with Sylvia for Dilla. Thank you for being so accommodating last minute
Thanks again for another great day care for Dilla!
Sylvia was a wonderful dog boarder. She took great care of Olive, taking her on lots of nice walks and sent me lot of updates which I appreciated when I was away. Olive seemed very settled. Thanks so much!

Schedule
I work from home most days, so I’m flexible and can give your pet plenty of attention. I’m also available for weekend pet sitting. I follow their routine to help them feel settled, whether that’s feeding, playtime, or company throughout the day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in my house or their own home, ensuring they are well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. I follow their routine to maintain a sense of familiarity. Having recently moved to Folkestone I’m making the most of the nearby beaches and parks with a furry pal.
A typical day
When I meet a dog for the first time, I take time to understand their personality and what they enjoy. Once they’re comfortable, we head out for a walk, giving them space to explore and interact. If they’re up for it, we visit a local park for some exercise, whether that’s a game of fetch or just a chance to stretch their legs. My goal is to keep them engaged, active, and content.
