Lydia can watch in your home
Availability
I work in the office Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm. Once arriving at your home, I like to follow the schedule outlined, but if none is provided, I prefer to let the dogs out for a bathroom break and then feed them. After 30 minutes I take them on a long walk and will even go hiking with them if the client is comfortable with such activity.

About Lydia B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In my house, I have two cats who are very friendly with people and other animals. As I’m sure you can imagine, having two cats can create quite a bit of mess. I clean my cats' litter boxes twice a day and make sure to top off their water fountain. They have a gravity feeder, so I don’t have to worry about feeding them until it’s required. I’ve trained my one cat, Pepper, to do tricks, and he is also leash-trained.
Information Lydia B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any behaviors or health issues I should know about beforehand. While I absolutely love working with all dog breeds (yes, the pitbull and American Akita included!), I would like to be warned if they have any behavioral issues. I’m willing to work with any animal.
A typical day
I love playing with dogs and taking them on walks. My personal preference is taking dogs on hikes or through local parks as it gives them an opportunity to smell new smells, explore the local area, and meet new people.

Pet care experience
I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was very young. Having grown up on a farm, I have taken care of livestock, dogs, cats, snakes, birds and gerbils! Friends and family have trusted me to look after and care for their pets, as they go on vacations. I have walked fed and bathed their pets and I have experience giving medication’s to animals. I am also a foster parent with Cats Cradle in HBurg.
Cat care experience
Lydia also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Lydia did an excellent job with our crew. An anxious dog, 5 kittens we are fostering, and our indoor cat. She left our home clean and communicated how everyone was doing with pics and updates. I would highly recommend Lydia and hope she can sit for us again.
Lydia is amazing and has taken such great care of our 3 cats!
We left our dog w Lydia while on our honeymoon and she did a fantastic job of caring for him and updating us with pics! She always goes above and beyond and leaves the house tidy— our go-to sitter for sure🎉🙌🏻
Lydia was great! We enjoyed her positive energy and the boys seemed to really like her. Will definitely work with her again!
