Pet care experience

Duo with 4+ years of experience!

Hi! We’re Lydia and Emmitt, an experienced pet care duo with a deep love for animals. I’ve happily cared for animals my whole life. I was raised on a farm in Southeastern KY, studied Veterinary Assisting in school, and now study as a fitness instructor from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. Emmitt has worked alongside me for the past 3 years and also has experience at professional boarding facilities. He’s knowledgeable, dependable, and passionate about animal care. We offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks, all tailored to your pet’s needs. We follow instructions closely, make sure pets get plenty of attention and exercise, and are always mindful of any health concerns. We can’t wait to meet your furry friend and treat them like family!

Lydia & Emmitt took good care of our pup for the weekend. We will be happy to have them pet sit again in the future!

Lydia and Emmitt took amazing care of our puppies while we were on vacation! They sent us updates and photos every day while we were gone. They gave them multiple walks per day and lots of play time. The pups looked like they didn’t even miss us! They stayed in our house for a whole week and left everything exactly as they found it. I don’t think anyone has ever cared for our puppies so well while we were away before!

Lydia and Emmitt are incredible. This was my first booking with them and my cats decided to be extra while I was away. From an injury to changed behaviors, Lydia and Emmitt stayed in contact, provided photo and text updates, and communicated progress beautifully. They kept the cats calm, fed, cleaned, and loved and kept me updated daily. Highly recommend this team. I'll be booking again for my next trip knowing they'll take great care and pay extra attention.

Lydia and Emmitt have helped several times with Arcues. He absolutely loves them and so do we. They are reliable, communicative, and always respond or answer any questions we have while we're away. I know he is safe and well cared for with them.

If there are any specific care instructions or additional information regarding behavior for your pet, we recommend letting us know before the booking. We always encourage meet & greets so that we can go over any details and feel assured and comfortable before booking. Also, please keep an updated ID tag and a snug, yet comfortable collar on your dog.
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.
