About: My family and I have had dogs since I was a kid. I’ve lived with up to 5 dogs at a time. Now, I am the proud momma of two cats, Zoe and Emma. You can describe me as the millennial whose sole purpose is to provide a full and fun life for my fur babies. At this time, I am a full time student and on my off days I hope to care for and go on walks with your fur babies. I plan my responsibilities ahead of time, so my calendar will be updated regularly to give you the most updated availability. I am always aware and present during my time with pets. I will prioritize their safety and well-being. I would love to have meet and greets where you tell me all about your specific concerns and we can talk about how I can help ease those concerns!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am extremely passionate about their care and well-being. I volunteered at a veterinary clinic over the summer, where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Family and friends regularly trust me to feed, walk, exercise, and dogsit their pets, and I always treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and safety-focused, and I’m comfortable following specific routines or care instructions, including basic medications if needed. I also prioritize clear communication and love providing updates and photos so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away I currently have a part time job and am going to school as well but would love to spend my extra time with your pups! My job is flexible and can work or adjust around any vists! mon-wed school 11-3 work is flexible and varies by week I care for pets in their own homes so they can remain in a familiar, comfortable environment. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, walks, routines, and any medications. Safety and trust are always my top priorities, and I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything tidy and clean at all times.

About: I grew up in a family that always had multiple dogs, and with a veterinarian dad, I learned early how to care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their needs. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes from my own, plus pets belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping dogs on their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. It’s a priority for me to let every dog take their time, feel comfortable, and build trust at their own pace. I’m gentle, reliable, and treat every dog like family and ’ll care for your dog with the same attention I give my own. I currently work a part-time job in the mornings, so I’m available for pet care most afternoons and full days on certain weekdays. • Thursday - Sunday : available after 1pm • Monday - Wednesday : fully available all day I’m flexible with walk times, check-ins, and longer visits, and I’m happy to discuss a schedule that fits your dog’s routine!! I know how important trust is, especially with anxious dogs, so I always give pets space and let them warm up at their own pace. I follow routines closely whether that’s with meds, feeding, walks and safety is always my top priority in and outside the home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. I have experience with small, medium, and large breeds, including shy, nervous, or high-energy pups. Friends, neighbors, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive — your dog will feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. 💛🐾 I work a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time each day to give your pup attention, walks, playtime, and care. I’m available on weekdays after 2pm and most weekends, making it easy to fit your dog’s routine into mine. I offer a calm, safe environment with a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love company. I’m very attentive and follow your dog’s routines carefully. I can crate your pup if needed, separate dogs during feeding, and provide a clean, supervised space where your fur baby will feel secure and loved.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and spending time with them. Taking care of pets and playing with them comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the day on both weekdays and weekends. Whether you need morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening care, I can adapt to your pet’s needs and your routine. I have a large, secure backyard where your dog can safely run and play. I also have a friendly dog that can help keep your pet entertained, but if your pet prefers to be alone, I can easily keep them separated. I prioritize a clean, safe, and loving environment where your pet can feel at home.

About: I have experience taking care of animals other than cats and dogs. I've owned reptiles most of my life so if there's a reptile I need to take care of as well, that's also something within my skillset. I'm home nearly all day, every day so any pets with separation anxiety, medical issues or puppies are not a big deal for me to handle! I have a fenced in yard and a dog who is selective so a planned and brief meet and greet is a must before seeing if boarding services will work

About: I have been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors four-legged family members for the past 8 years! This includes overnight house sitting, a walk around the neighborhood, or check-in with some playtime! I always make sure to spend quality time with each and every pup, making sure they're feeling loved while you're away! I'm currently working part-time, with a lot of flexibility to work from home! This allows my schedule to be flexible and can work in pet care into my daily schedule. While I reside in the South Bay Area, my primary work location is in La Jolla. As I commute most of the days, I am able to easily visit your pups along my commute! My schedule does vary, so feel free to reach out and I am likely able to easily fit you into my schedule! I love taking care of pups and am excited to be your pup's extended family! I am able to work with the environment you have set up in your home! Whether that is letting them roam free, gating them to a certain area of the house, or crating them! Let me know what works best for your pup and you, and I am able to follow their routine!

This was the first time I had to find a sitter for my babies. It has been difficult especially since my sons are in law enforcement they were very skeptical about having me bring in someone I did not know into my home. I looked through many profiles and found Sylvia. I am extremely surprised on how well Dodger and Nala have been around Sylvia ESPECIALLY DODGER LOL They both have been very comfortable around her and that makes me feel better. Thank you Sylvia
