Pet care experience

Can’t wait to meet your furbabies!

I grew up with at least one dog and one cat at all times, so I’m definitely an animal person! I have been pet sitting for the last 6 years, and I would love to care for your pets too! I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes with and without medical needs, as well as lizards, and I am happy to work with you to give your pet the best possible care. I can’t wait to meet your furbabies!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to stick to your pet’s typical routine. Whether it’s playing in the yard, leashed potty breaks, or a walk in the park, we will have a fabulous time! I have an energetic escape artist husky, so I understand the importance of being vigilant and keeping your pet entertained and mentally stimulated in and out of your home. Whatever makes you feel the most comfortable sounds great to me! Special note for walks: I am more than happy to take your pup on a walk! To ensure the most safety for your dog and myself, I request that any new walking clients either take a short walk with us at the meet and greet or are home for the first walk so your pup can get used to leaving your home with me!

Lydia was so kind and took excellent care of our two cats, Blackberry and Baby Jane, while we were out. We had last minute issues with our litter box robot and she brought inside a big box that got shipped and had the replacement litter box, despite not needing too. She also cleaned up the the cat bowls and sent us pictures of the stray cats that we feed. Would absolutely recommend her and would love if she took care of our cats in the future.

Lydia is knowledgeable, reliable and so great with handling dogs! I have a well trained, but high drive breed and she did fantastic with my boy! So grateful to know I have help I can trust with the care of my dog! Ten out of ten for Lydia! She’s fantastic!

I have 2 dogs and a cat who love Lydia! She cared for them as if they were her own! I appreciate everything she did for them while we were away!

Lydia did a fantastic job! My cats are usually pretty nervous around new people but they were both asking for pets and attention by day 2. Bonus points for helping to make the check ins happen on such short notice, I absolutely will book again in the future :)

Schedule

I am currently a full time student so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I have my own pets at home so I can’t do overnights or board your pets, but I would love to care for them with drop ins or walks however works best for you!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Lydia can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your pet has any needs or behaviors I need to keep track of! I can work with some levels of reactivity as long as I am aware of the behavior and their triggers. I want to make sure your pet is safe and happy and I would love to work with you on how best to accomplish that!
