Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to watching other people’s pet baby’s I am extremely cautious and want to ensure their health and safety above all else. I know how hard it is to leave your beloved in another’s care but I do my best to keep them occupied and happy while you’re away.

Information Lydia G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any special medications or restrictions the dog/cat has so I can better prepare for taking care of them. It would also be helpful to know their temperament and energy level.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on long walks, playing fetch, and giving cuddles. I also love running around and getting all of their energy out. It wears me out too!

Pets

I love all animals!

Pet care experience

I’ve had lots of animals throughout my life and I have been told I am a dog whisperer. We have one cat at home because we live in a small apartment so it makes me miss having dogs even more.

Lydia was fantastic!!! She made my babies feel loved and cared for while my roommate and I were gone for a few days and made sure they were having fun and playing. She takes the best pictures and is sure to leave well-detailed notes about each visit and updating me on their day. Thank you!!!!

Lydia was great! She really bonded with my cat (Buddy) over the week she was taking care of him and seemed to really care about how he was doing. She went above and beyond, sometimes staying beyond the time she was paid for to play with Buddy longer. She was also very good about sending regular updates, which super comforting since this was the first time I've left my cat to go on vacation and I was worried about how he would do.
