About Sylvia

My husband our senior miniature schnauzer, Humphrey, and I are eager to start dog sitting to share our love with more small to medium dogs. We care for our friends' dogs when they travel and we reside in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with a courtyard and offer two daily walks and weekend park playtime. We're located near Como Park, Fawkner Park, and Surry Park, we ensure a loving environment for your furry friend's stay.  

Both of us have jobs that allow us to stay home
which means that your pet will have our attention throughout the day and get
lots of pets and cuddles. What does that means for your beloved dog?  

  • Fully fenced private backyard. 
  • 3 off leash parks close to us 
  • Flexibility to accommodate the individual needs and behaviors of each
    dog 
  • House trained pets required.
  • We are committed to provide: 

    • Dog boarding: Offering a cozy stay in our cozy
      apartment with easy access to the courtyard
    • Dog day care: With plenty of off park options
      close to us, our goal is to make every day a tail-wagging adventure.

      Dog Boarding

      I could not have had a better experience with Sylvia and Gavin! We met for a coffee beforehand so that our puppy, Teddy, could meet Sylvia and her dog Humphrey. Communication was clear and Sylvia was very accommodating of my plans. She was right on time for both collection and drop off and Teddy had a great time at their house. I would love to have Teddy stay again and would not hesitate to recommend Sylvia to others.

      My furbaby spent the day with Sylvia. She (and her husband) were lovely and very easy to communicate with. Rosco was well cared for. He was taken for a walk, and had plays with Humphrey 😊 I had a great day at work knowing he was in good hands. I will definitely book him in again with Sylvia.
