Pet care experience

Steps for Pets! (...and more) :D

Growing up, my family always had at least one dog, but there was even a time we had 4 dogs and several puppies to take care of all at once, too! (Plus my sister and I convinced our parents to get a cat!... I'm sure they felt a little out numbered..) I was in charge of making sure the pets were properly fed, had fresh water, and of course that they got to see a little more of the world on their daily walk or occasional run...I am pretty active, so if you feel your pup needs a little extra movement and would like to run, I am open to all their needs! I am here to listen to your wants and concerns for your animal and am here to help! I am open to caring for dogs of all types, size, ages, and stages. I've helped take care of everything from a few second old newborn pup to nursing momma to an old dog that has all the tricks. Here in Hawai'i, I have not been able to have a pet myself (not an optimal space, or not allowed), so I thought it would be a great opportunity to help others like you take care of their furry friends!!! :)

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your animals likes and needs as YOU see fit. I believe pets are family and deserve just as much of a healthy happy life as we do! And though I hope to be somewhat a part of your pets daily life, there's no one that knows them like you! I will take your guidance of their usual routine and activity, plus any notes of their personality to make sure your fur babies are getting the best routine and care suitable for them!

Lydia did a great job walking BMO while I was out of town on a work trip. It’s always a struggle finding someone to entrust with caring for the little guy but Lydia was welcomed by him right away. She kept to his routine and sent rover cards with photos every walk to keep me informed. I came home to BMO happy and healthy, and would highly recommend reaching out to Lydia if you need some help! She’s a great resource on rover!

Cannot recommend Lydia enough. 5/5. My first time using the app and I couldn’t have come across a better representative of the spirit of Rovers intention. Lydia truly went above and beyond, was flexible, understanding, and accommodating— not just to me, but to the animals and curve balls they gleefully provide.

Lydia is an animal lover through-and-through, who loves other people's animals as much as her own. Responsible and knowledgeable, I would recommend her to anyone who needs to hire her!

Schedule

My schedule is currently open for anytime to care for your special animals! In the near future, anytime in the mornings (great time for a cool walk while we go into the hot summer!) or late evenings will be my optimal time to assist and take care of your furry friends, but I will of course communicate and update my availability when the time comes. I am free on the weekends anytime, so if you need someone to check in on your pup while on your weekend getaway, I am there for you! :)

If you have any concerns or special requests for your pup, please do not hesitate to tell me! The more information I have from you about your pet, the better I can best serve you and them!!! :) Please let me know if you don't have necessary equipment for walks, etc. This way I can prepare for walks and care accordingly. :)
