Information Lydia G. would like to know about your pet

Before pet sitting, I’d like to know your pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, medical needs, behavioral traits, likes and dislikes, triggers, and how they interact with other animals or people. It’s also helpful to know their favorite toys, commands they respond to, walking habits, and any past health issues. Understanding these details helps me provide the best care possible.

A typical day

As a pet sitter, I provide loving care and companionship by taking pets on walks, engaging them with playtime, feeding them on schedule, grooming as needed, and keeping their living areas clean. I’m attentive to their health, can administer medications if required, and always ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while youre away.

Lydia did a great job with our dog who has a lot of separation anxiety. We'll definitely have them watch over our little guy again!

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.
