Information Lydia R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any medical limitations. While I’ve administered medical care of all kinds, I want to ensure that I’m following you and your vet’s recommendations.

A typical day

I love to hike, walk, run, and play outside - puppies and active dogs are totally my speed! I love senior pets as well, and am happy to be there to give your pups lots of loves while you’re away.

Dog Mom & Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life and have always been the go to for pet sitting in my neighborhood. I’ve worked with every kind of animal from horses to birds and everything in between! With a cocker spaniel & poodle mix doggie of my own, I know how important it is to find a sitter that loves your pets as much as theirs. ❤️

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.
