Flexible, Years of Pet Experience!

Pet care experience

My name is Lydia and I recently moved to NYC. My mom is a veterinarian so I've grown up caring for animals! I have experience caring for all types of cats and dogs, as well as horses, goats, rats, guinea pigs, fish, hamsters, and various other animals. I also have experience administering medicine and caring for pets with medical conditions or just shyness. I love interacting with animals and am very flexible schedule-wise! Furthermore, I have experience training pets and if desired I'd be happy to spend some time teaching and playing with your animals!

Lydia was a great sitter to my elderly cat, Pops! She was super communicative and sent me pics every day. I will definitely book with her again.

Helped me out for over a week straight and did a nice job taking care of my cats. I appreciated getting pictures of them every day, and I was able to reach Lydia easily when I had an update/question. Recommend Lydia and would definitely work with her again!

I can take pets for walks around the block or play indoors with toys. We can cuddle or roughhouse depending on you and your pet's preferences.

Information Lydia M. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know about any quirks or special needs your pet may have. Can they only do short walks because they have a pulled muscle? Are they weirdly scared of park fountains or plastic bags? Are they extremely shy when people try topet them? These are all great things to know.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your pets physically and mentally. I'll take them on walks where we explore the world while working on our leash training and skills in public. I'm a big fan of parks or open areas where we can look around.
