Pet care experience

Housesitter looking to help YOU!

Hey hey! My name is Lydia and I’m a current junior at UT. I’ve been house sitting for about the past 5 years! I love dogs, but am definitely open to working with cats as well. I enjoy doing household chores, so expect to come back to a clean house. My schedule is pretty open this semester, so your furry friend wouldn’t be left alone for longer than a few hours! Feel free to reach out with any questions, I look forward to hearing from you!

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with a wide array of pet personalities. I am overly cautious when it comes to caring for other peoples animals, especially if the task involves regular walks. I am attentive and organized, so no need to worry about any carelessness. I would not see this as simply a job, but an opportunity to spend time with your animal, which leads to a higher level of care!

House Sitting • Sep 27, 2026

Lydia did house sitting with our pup Appa for an extended weekend. She was so wonderful! We did a meet & greet beforehand, and you can tell immediately how much she loves dogs. She gave us updates + sent pictures of Appa throughout the week, so we had no stress while we were gone. And on top of it all, we came home to a spotless house. Would definitely recommend Lydia!!

Absolute professional! Lydia house-sat for our cat and dog, and she left the house in immaculate condition, with a very happy pup and cat. She was flexible with our needs and fantastic with communication. We highly recommend her!

I can’t recommend her enough! She is so sweet and genuinely loves animals, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing our pets are in her care. She’s incredibly responsible, dependable, and someone I know I can count on. I would trust her with our pets anytime!

Schedule

I work part time as a nanny and I’m also a full time student. I only have classes 2 days a week, so other than that I’m available to hang out with your pets! I grew up in a dog family so I love spending time with all kinds of dogs, but would love to get to know your kitty as well!
