Full-Time Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

~Currently serving "paws" in Eastlake and SLU neighborhoods. ~Accepting drop off Day Care and Boarding from anywhere. After the long hiatus from "you know", its time to make paw friends again! ~My husband does live in the home, but is at work most of the day, in case you’re pet has any issues with men. I am currently a homemaker, looking to spend some quality time with your lovely dog. I grew up with two amazing beagles, whom have recently passed away. Leaving me without a dog of my own since I was a little girl, making me very excited to spend the day with your wonderful companion. I currently have one teenage tortoise named River and an aquarium full of fish. I understand how hard it can be to have to leave your furry family member at home when you have to go out of town or are forced to work late. I am here to ease that worry and take care of your pet as if it was my own. I am available every weekday and most weekends for walking or pet boarding. I can also watch any other small pets you may have as well. Having an immense affection and love towards animals, I have had several exotic and non-exotic pets over the years, and have pet-sat animals like horses, dogs and cats. Using the knowledge and experience I have gained overtime, I can maintain a healthy atmosphere for the animals, and take care of them, as well as notice any odd behavior. I received my B.S. at WSU in Environmental Science, specializing in Wildlife Ecology. I often use the information that I have learned about wild animals, to help me take care of and understand their domestic counterparts. I am currently a homemaker, I am home full time unless I am out walking another client. I can give your pet my full undivided attention. Eastlake is a smaller calmer neighborhood than most other Seattle areas, we can safely go on walks and explore the area without a lot of traffic or loud nosies. There are small parks all along the street to explore and smell.

Lydia and her husband took great care of my girl. They’re super responsive and made sure to send daily updates with pictures during her stay. I definitely recommend Lydia as a sitter and hope to be working with them again :)

Lydia was great! Great communication, she shows up on time and leaves a detailed review about how the walk went. We look forward to hiring Lydia again in the future to walk our furbaby!
