Pet care experience

I have been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and their happiness and well-being is my passion! I have a 3 year old Chihuahua who is the love of my life. This summer I am working from home and would love to take care of your baby too!

Lydia was so sweet and took such good care of my very anxious dog, my very anxious cat, and my menace baby cat. I felt so relieved knowing that they were all in good hands and I loved getting updates on how they were all doing. Even my scaredy animals trusted Lydia quickly, and they can be hard to win over.

Lydia did a wonderful job taking care of my kitties, including befriending my very shy cat!

Information Lydia L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if any special needs or behavioral quirks! There is no one-size-fits-all with animals, and I am prepared to handle anything, so long as I have a heads-up.

A typical day

I am home with my puppy all day! We start our day with a walk around 7:30 in the morning followed by breakfast. I sit down at my desk around 8am and take hourly play breaks. A noon walk is a must, followed by another around 5 before dinner. The evening is full of shenanigans and Zoomies and cuddling on the couch before bed.

I am home full time through July while I study for the IL State Bar Exam. My chihuahua, Norby, goes on 4 walks per day, but I am happy to adjust as needed! As I work from home, my life and schedule revolves around the animals I care for!
