I have been pet sitting for 3 years and I loved it. Walking, bathing, feeding. I love the outdoors so walking the dog is very big plus just to be outside. I know pets are a part of the family and they too deserve our love and care much like us.

Hello,
My name is Sydney. I've grown up with pets. My parents are veterinarians so I've had just about every animal. I spent the summer in Houston doing an internship and spent two weeks dog and house sitting. I really enjoyed that experience and would like to continue to watch people's pets.
