About Sydney
Hi! I am an international documentary directing student at the University of Edinburgh, and I have lots of flexible free time to spend with pets. I started raising dogs when I was 11 years old, so I’ve had 15 years of experience now. I own a sweet 7-year-old Bichon Frise and a healthy senior 13-year-old Chihuahua.
Most of my family and friends are huge animal lovers, and I often look after their dogs and cats. Spending time with dogs is my happiest, most relaxing and healing thing to do. I’ve taken my own dogs travelling many times and taken tons of cute photos and videos of them — my social media is basically full of my pups!
I used to volunteer and donate regularly at an animal rescue shelter back in China, so I know all the key pet care knowledge and which foods are unsafe for dogs. I don’t have a cat of my own, but I often look after my friends’ cats when they need pet sitting, so I understand cat behaviour and routines really well too.
For my dog walking service, the length of each walk can be fully decided by the pet owner. I adapt my pace and routes to fit different temperaments: slow, calm walks for nervous, shy or senior dogs, and longer active routes for energetic, playful pups. During every house visit, I can customise all service tasks according to the owner’s specific requests. Normally I will refill water bowls, serve meals on schedule, play gentle games, clean up messes, and check pets’ mood and physical condition.
I am capable of handling small pet emergencies calmly, and I am comfortable administering regular oral medication as instructed by owners. I keep a neat schedule calendar to organise multiple bookings without delays or mix-ups.
To keep owners reassured, I always send regular photo and short video updates throughout each booking, so you can follow how your pet is doing anytime. I strictly avoid dangerous food and risky outdoor areas to guarantee pets’ safety. My schedule is very flexible for daily walks and drop-in visits for well-behaved dogs and cats.
