Safety, trust & environment

I want your pet to feel as comfortable in their own home as possible without you there so I make sure they stay on their routine, play with them, go outside or for walks and spoil them with treats and cuddles!

Information Lydia M. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting your pet or walking your dog, I would like to know about his or her demeanor, personality, and any quirks so we can get along. I would like to know any commands you use so we can communicate. I would like to know about their energy level and how they like to play so that we can have fun together. I would like to know if they have any special needs such as medicine, food preferences, etc. I would like to know if they have any fears so that I can protect them. I love all animals, and all breeds :)

A typical day

I love taking the pets I sit everywhere with me whether that's a car ride or a trip to the park. They will have so much attention with me! I live near many nature parks and trails and love to bring dogs on hikes with me.

Pet care experience

I absolutely love animals and for that reason, I'm always the go-to petsitter among my friends. I've been pet sitting since I was 10 when I started my own pet sitting business in my neighborhood and I'm still sitting for those same owners I started with all those years ago. Your dog will be so spoiled with me. I love to play and go on walks. I've got a lot of energy to play with high energy dogs and I love to cuddle if they need to rest. I love to bring dogs on hikes and car rides too. I helped train two family dogs so if you've got a young pup I can keep the training consistent. My schedule is very flexible so I can be there to watch your dog when you need a hand. I regularly dogsit for a dog who has seizures and so if your pet has any special needs I am up for the task and can make sure they get the extra care they need. Whether you need someone to drop in, take your best friend on a walk here and there, are going on a long trip or just leaving for the night, I'm your girl!
