Information Lydia L. would like to know about your pet

I have experience as a medical assistant and my background is in psychology, let me know if there’s anything special your pet may need. I can also assist in training if you have started any new habits.

A typical day

I am in the habit of talking to my pets all day given that I have been working from home. I try to include them in what I’m doing, like if I’m working on the garden or going for a walk. I am sensitive to when they need stimulation and play.

Pet care experience

I've worked in child care for families and a company and I apply the skills acquired from there to here. I understand that your dog is a part of your family and deserves a similar manner of patience, love, and communication that a good child care provider gives. These necessities are what I consider when caring for my own dog. As much as I adore the familiarity of dogs, especially puppies, I'd be more than happy to care for other pets. I'm a runner and I believe in staying active to maintain health-- providing the body allows it! If you would like for your dog to exercise too, I'm very willing to include them in on runs. I have a lot of energy for playtime, exercise, mindful care and would like to offer my services. Hope to hear from you. :) Best Wishes

Lydia was so great with our cats and had awesome, timely communication. Loved the updates and photos she sent while we were away and she even swept up after the cats. Highly recommend her care!

Lydia is awesome! I know our old buddy, Jackson, was in excellent hands! We did a meet and greet with her two pups and once it seemed they'd all get along we booked his stay. Since he's not very active and no longer goes for walks, Lydia asked if we could pack his brush so she could do something with him! He was so happy...we could tell from the pic she sent of him sunning himself on her patio! Thank you so much, Lydia! We will definitely have her watch our boy 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.
