Experienced & fun pet sitter
Pet care experience
I've worked as a dog walker and pet sitter on and off alongside undergrad & grad school. I love working with animals and consider it a privilege to care for any pet's physical and emotional needs! I always make sure to reinforce good behavior and make sure to have lots of fun expending energy during the day. I give lots of love and lots of rewards!
Reviews
Another wonderful experience with Lidia! This is our second time booking Lidia, and both times she was fantastic. She really understands our dog Hallie, and she's so calm and competent! Hallie has some mild behavior issues, and we felt very confident in Lidia's ability to manage them. We loved all the photo updates, too. Thanks so much Lidia!
Lidia was excellent, can’t say enough good things about her—excellent communication, our dogs loved her, gave the dogs lots of thoughtful care and attention, attentive to special requests, very easy to work with, took good care of the house. Thank you, Lidia!
Lidia was great! I really appreciate her flexibility with scheduling, and we got so many updates! She also left our house nice and clean. Highly recommend!
Lidia did an amazing job rolling with some changes to our plans. My girlfriend and I got sick leading up to our trip and things became a little less concrete on when we would be leaving. Lidia was great and communicating and helping out with Benny when we were finally able to get out for our trip.

I make sure to take care and follow all house rules. If I'm caring for your pet in your own home, I try and maintain your already set schedule so I can best meet the pets needs. I'm always super prepared for anything - whether that means keeping treats and dog bags in every coat pockets or making sure there's a copy of emergency contacts saved in my phone at all times, I've got it handled!
Home
Information Lidia M. would like to know about your pet
Aside from the more typical food and medical information, I also like to know their typically walk and play schedule - times they usually go out and how much they typically can/want to walk, how often they play and with what toys, how they are around other dogs when walking. Keeping a consistent schedule can be really important to dogs! I also like to know about their favorite activities or areas of the house, so I can keep them comfortable. Anything that causes reactions (aggressive or fearful) is extremely important so as to best avoid them.
A typical day
When it comes to your pets, I make sure to keep them happy in all regards! I like to assess where I am with the dogs with some fun play time - physical games and play with toys are fun, but I also love toys that stimulate dogs mentally and let them figure stuff out on their own! I also love to visit a nice open park and get off the sidewalks. If we can, even just going to get coffee with a dog and sit outside in the fresh air can be a great activity.

I'm currently a full time grad student, so I'm mostly making time for pet sitting and overnight at-home care, rather than just casual walks, so I can focus on one household and take care of all your pets needs. Because of my flexible schedule, I have a lot of time to care for your pets!
