Pet care experience

Very excited to care for your pet!

Hi there! My husband and I have over 10 years of experience providing loving care to our client's pets, with many returning to us repeatedly. We adore animals but choose not to have one of our own, as pet sitting gives us the flexibility to spend time with many wonderful furry friends. We are home most of the time and love going for long walks, so your pet will never feel lonely or bored. We offer flexible pet-sitting services, including overnight stays, daytime care, and weekend visits. With experience caring for both small and large breed dogs, as well as cats, we will ensure your pet’s routine, diet, and any special needs are carefully followed. Rest assured, your furry family member will be in great hands! Feel free to reach out if you'd like more information or have any questions. We'd love to care for your pet!

Couldn't be happier. Sylvia is just perfect. Our Charlie can be a handful and Sylvia was wonderful. Beautiful, organized home, with a nice fenced in yard. Excellent communication. Great pictures too. Highly recommend!

Our dog had a great time with Sylvia!! She sent lots of cute updates throughout his stay which gave us peace of mind and we could tell he was comfortable and well cared for. He loved their big yard!! Would definitely recommend Sylvia for your pet care needs.

We could not have asked for a better experience with Sylvia! This was our first time leaving our boy, Rosco, with anyone since our move from OH to IL. She answered all of our questions and made us feel comfortable leaving him under her care. She sent pictures and responded promptly. She was very attentive and made sure to contact us right away when he started experiencing an allergy flare up while we were away. I would absolutely recommend her and her husband if you are looking for someone trustworthy to watch your fur baby. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a sitter for Rosco. Thank you so much!

We love to play in the backyard as well as go for walks around the neighborhood. Enjoy spending time playing fetch or other activities with the pet to keep them engaged.
