Pet care experience

Your dog’s home away from home 🐾

Hi! I’m Lydia — a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors 🤍 Growing up around Dobermans, horses, and later raising my German Shepherd Rocky taught me the importance of patience, structure, affection, and understanding every dog’s unique needs. I provide a loving, clean, and calm home environment in Mississauga where your pup will receive plenty of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. Since I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have companionship and care. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone, which is why I always prioritize keeping owners updated with photos, videos, and regular check-ins 🐶 Whether your pup is playful, shy, energetic, or just loves relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while you’re away ✨ Why pet parents love booking with me: • Work-from-home supervision • Daily photo & video updates • Calm, clean & cozy environment • Personalized care & routines • Flexible and communicative sitter • Lots of love, affection & attention 🤍

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and loving environment, including a locked balcony and large glass windows for safe outdoor views. Dogs are always on leash outside, and I can provide a separate room if your pet needs space or quiet time. Please feel free to talk to me anytime—let me know how I can make your pet’s stay even better. I’m here to listen, adapt, and ensure your furry friend feels truly at home.

Lydia took excellent care of Milo while I was away for a few weeks. I never once doubted that he was in the best hands. She sent me daily photos and updates that reassured me that he was happy and healthy. Will definitely be booking Lydia again as I’m sure Milo is keen to go back!

She’s absolutely great with the cats and so trusting. Received daily photos and feedbacks from her. And she’s always been very responsive with them. I’d love to book with her in the future.

Lydia took great care of our dog while we were out for the evening. She was very flexible with accommodating changes in our schedule too.

We asked Lydia to check in our cats a couple times when we were away for a weekend. She was super friendly and responsive and was very detailed in her care. She also administered my one cat’s medications. Our cats seemed to really like Lydia again and we will definitely book with her again in the future and would recommend her to others.

Schedule

I work remotely and am available every day of the week, including weekends, which allows me to provide full-time care and stay flexible with scheduling. For pick-up or drop-off, I’m typically available: • Before 9 AM • Around noon • After 5 PM If needed, I can take a quick break during my workday to meet you — just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly and avoid interruptions. I do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings, but for weekends, I kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice so I can organize my schedule. I’m big on communication and flexibility — as long as we coordinate, I’ll make it work smoothly for both you and your pet! 🐾

I’d love to know your pet’s routine, energy level, any allergies, medical needs, or quirks. How do they do with other animals, new people, or being alone? Are there any commands, rules, or habits you’d like me to follow? The more I know, the more I can make your pet feel safe, happy, and right at home!
