Pet care experience

I was raised in a household that always owned dogs and I grew up on a farm in Southeastern KY. It was my responsibility to care for these animals and I did it happily! I studied Veterinary Assisting in high school and volunteered at an equestrian center during that time. Overall, I have accumulated a large amount of animal care experience. I’m currently working part-time and entering into the animal care field. This is an ideal opportunity for me and I’m excited to gain more experience. I will care for pets at my home or yours by paying close attention to the pet’s every need. I will listen carefully to your instruction. Additionally, I love to walk! I’m more than willing to make sure your pet gets the proper exercise and care. I work part-time from home doing design, so I have plenty of time and energy to play and walk with your pets and will make sure their needs are met. Pets will be safe and secure with me! I live in an apartment with space for your pets to play in and be comfortable. Please let me know of any potential health concerns to ensure your pet’s safety.

Lydia and Emmitt are fantastic pet sitters. They are prompt, have great communication, and enjoy spending time with the pets they care for. Would absolutely use them again for our next vacation.

Lydia and Emmett were amazing! This is the first time we’ve used a pet sitter and I was initially nervous. However, not only was there a very detailed description of how each visit went, they also included so many photos and I could see how happy my pup was!

Lydia is my go to for sitting. It used to be Petco but, I don’t think anyone can beat Lydia’s dependability, and quality of caregiving. Thanks Lydia for everything.

Always so lovely and helpful! Lydia walks my dogs, gives them tons of play time, and gives the cats lots of love and attention too. Couldn’t ask for better!
