About: I have trained puppies to be mobility service dogs from when they were eight weeks old to two years old. I have also lived with dogs for the past 17 years. I am highly proficient in training basic skills (sit, down, stay, heel) and well-versed in positive reinforcement and praise-based training methods. I also have experience with exercising dogs both physically and through mental enrichment. I am currently working a Wednesday to Sunday schedule and am generally available after 5 pm on those days. I have much more daytime availability Mondays and Tuesdays. I am happy to find appropriate walks for your pets of all ages and abilities in the area. I will make sure to meet your pet's physical and mental needs and communicate clearly and effectively.

About: Note— I return to college on the 22nd of August, and will not be available in the Gorge after that. Hi there! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, and grew up with two dogs (Jack and Ozzy), in addition to chickens and rabbits. Most recently, I cared for a friends two labradors for a two months. I’m quick to learn specific care routines, and I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health—your pet’s comfort and safety are always my priority. Whether your animal is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them like my own. I am currently home from college for the summer, and working only sporadically from home. This means that your furry friend will be my first priority! I have a fenced yard one acre yard, and one friendly dog that is crate trained. I can easily crate your dog in my home too. If I am carrying for a dog in your home, I am available throughout the day to stop by and let the dog out, walk them, or to just hang out.
“Sydney did a fantastic job caring for our furry boy and our home. She was highly responsible, following care instructions, took impeccable care of our garden and home. In fact, she left our home cleaner than she found it, over the top and unexpected. Her communication was awesome, she often sent texts and pictures and that was a great feeling when you are missing your fur baby.”
“Amethyst was very kind and loving with our senior girl, Muki. Upon our return Muki had enjoyed several outings and was clearly fond of Amethyst. Senior dogs can be a challenge with medication, feeding habits and potty schedule! Amethyst was wonderful!! We highly recommend her services.”
