Pet lady to the rescue

Pet care experience

I have eight years of experience caring for dogs and 14 years for cats! (I had a childhood cat name precious) . I am dependable, caring, reliable, flexible as well as experienced with elderly cats & dogs. My services include drops-ins and cat & dog boarding (overnights stay for pets).When your pets are in my care they will be treated with as if they were mine own. Pets will have access to toys, hugs and bed (if pets are boarding) and as many bathroom breaks they desire.

Lydia has been my go-to ever since I returned to the office. My dog leads me into the building like he owns the place and never turns back. Harry adores her!

Lydia took great care of my cat, Lila! She was easy to communicate with and treated my shy kitty with kindness and love. I received lots of great pictures. She even built Lila a little fort so she had a place to hide while she adjusted to the new place. I’d love to ask Lydia to watch her in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

My sitting style is relaxed :). I know that sometimes it’s can be hard on a pup or cat to get comfortable in a new environment. When pets arrive at my home I usually leave them to explore they’re environment. This is done to make sure that the pup is comfortable. After pup is comfortable and explored their new environment Fetch, pets, hugs, and zoomies with me will ensue.

Information Lydia A. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know your pet diet, usually walks & feeding times, administered medications, has allergic reactions, and tips to soothe pets when they are missing they’re pawrents. Pet will have a place to sleep (a bed) and space to play which makes for a comfortable stay. Drops-ins: I would like to know specific directions on how to care for pet and where things are placed like food or treats location.

A typical day

I located in the heart of NYC where there’s plenty of activities for pups. Depending on how long the boarders stay; I would take pup to the doggie park or a long walks (if paw-rents prefer not to have pup at the park). Dogs and cats will have a plenty of pet toys and treats as well as many outings at pet friendly places.

Availability

I am self employed with rover being one of my employments and might I add I do love pet sitting the most. If I am pet sitting rest assured I will not schedule any work when I am caring for dogs or cats. I also only sit one pup or cat at a time:). When pets are boarding I would love to have instructions from pet parent e.g food recommendations, medication administration and walk schedule. Although I live in a apartment theirs room for pets to play and nap. When I do drop-ins I will walk pet (if that’s what you prefer), feed, water and check on pet will being. Pets will be perfectly safe in my care I am located in a pet friendly building with a door man present 24/7.
