Pet care experience

Pets = Family

I have taken care of friends'/family's pets since I was 12 years old. I grew up with both a cat and dog which gave me a special bond to both types of pets. I rescued a cat and a dog within the past couple of years and absolutely adore spending time with them!

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, I am unable to provide pet sitting services at my residence due to the rental policy. I am happy to come to the pet owner's house as well as take dogs on long walks.

I had a great experience with Lydia! She was communicative and sent great pictures of my cat while I was away for the weekend. I would absolutely book again.

Lydia was an excellent sitter and made me feel at ease leaving my cat at home while I went on a road trip. She gave detailed updates and sent great pictures. My cat Airy was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely book again!

Lydia was a great help for the week with our high energy, young cat. She was easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures throughout the week, and made us feel comfortable while we were away. I definitely recommend Lydia!

Lydia was wonderful to work with and our pups loved her! She was very easy going, was great with communication, followed instructions perfectly and sent awesome pictures of our dogs to us every drop in. It was comforting to know our dogs were in such great hands while we were away for the weekend. 10/10 highly recommend hiring Lydia for taking care of your animals!

It is important to know the dog’s temperament, whether he/she gets along with other dogs, if he/she is skittish around people, and a general idea of how he/she walks on a leash. The more I know about your special member of the family, the better care I can provide!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
