About Lydia K.
Safety, trust & environment
I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. For dogs, I provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. For cats, I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and affection on their terms. I’m experienced in administering oral medications, including pills and liquid medications, as well as topical treatments. I also have experience caring for blind and deaf pets and understand the extra patience and attention they may require. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves interactive play or prefers to relax and simply enjoy having someone nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable and provide the mental stimulation, exercise, or calm companionship they need.
Information Lydia K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any medical conditions, medications, behavioral quirks, fears, or special routines your pet has before the booking begins. I’m committed to providing personalized care and am happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
A typical day
I love engaging with pets in ways that match their individual personalities and energy levels. For dogs, that may include extended walks, interactive play, and mentally stimulating activities like treat puzzles or sniffing games using a snuffle mat to keep them entertained and engaged. For cats, I tailor playtime to their comfort level and preferences, whether that’s chasing a feather wand, playing with toys, or interactive games like moving my hand under a blanket for them to pounce on. My goal is to make every visit fun, enriching, and stress-free while ensuring each pet receives plenty of attention and companionship.

Pet care experience
I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. Having owned multiple cats, including one with thyroid issues requiring daily medication, I’m comfortable providing specialized care when needed. I also grew up helping my mom pet sit for family members’ dogs and cats, giving me years of experience with feeding, playtime, exercise, litter box maintenance, and ensuring pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also have experience with small animals like pet rats from owning them for several years and have cared for guinea pigs in the past. I'm able to give medications orally and topically for small animals. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and treating every pet like they’re part of my own family.

Reviews
Lydia has been taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats for years. She is responsible, trustworthy and a true animal lover. Our pets adore her and are always happy to see her. She takes care of our special needs dog, providing extra care, giving extra attention—including medication. We never have to worry about our animals when Lydia is taking care of them. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting/walking/care needs.
