Animal lover for life!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I've always had a deep love for pets. They are what make me truly happy! I've had many dogs and cats growing up and now have 2 fur babies of my own named Chief Pancake and Lucy, raised them so I am familiar with how often they need to be walked and played with. I am confident in taking great care of your pet. Tell me what your dog needs and I will be more than happy to go above and beyond for you and your fur babies! I provided services through Rover in 2017 but had a baby and was a stay at home mom for 4 years. My little one is in school/day care now so I have lots of free time now and am excited to get back into working with pets! When house sitting, I basically "move in" for the time period that you will be gone. Depending on your pets energy level, we can go for walks in the neighborhood, visit nearby dog parks, or just hang out and snuggle. I try to keep your pets as comfortable as possible and maintain their usual routine while you're away.

Lydia was great! She kept me informed every step of the way and arrived right on time. I can tell how much she loves animals. I highly recommend her and have already signed up to use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I will always keep an eye on your pet, just like I do with my own pets. They won’t be let outside without my supervision, walks will always be with a leash/harness. I also like to carry treats, water and a collapsible water bowl for walks. I’m confident that your pet will be in good hands with me.

Information Lydia S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to get to know your pet! Does he/she have any quirky behavioral habits? Are they spayed or neutered? What's their favorite treat/toy?

A typical day

We will go on walks in the neighborhood and visit nearby parks. We can play fetch, frisbee, or just downright chill and snuggle if that's what your dog is into.

I’m currently taking care of pets full time now. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can usually accommodate your needs and schedule. I do have a family as well so if I’m staying overnight for you then I may respectfully ask if I can invite my son and husband over during the day. We are big animal lovers so your pets would get some extra attention from them as well.
