I’m currently working a part-time, first shift job (6am-2pm) in the healthcare field. I have every other weekend off so I will possibly be able to work with you depending on the weekends/hours that are needed. Other than that, during the week I’m free most days! House sitting: May or may not work depending on my child’s schedule, unless I’d be able to bring him with me. ( pets kid friendly?)

Safety, trust & environment

Some people say my pets are spoiled…but that’s a good thing, right? I currently have 2 dogs who are loved dearly and get let out often to play. They’re also allowed on furniture and to occasionally sleep with us because they’re apart of the family! I have 2 indoor cats and a few barn cats who stick close by.

Information Lydia S. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to be aware of any special diets/needs or if there is a strict schedule you’d like me to follow! I’d also like to be aware of any medical conditions that occurs frequently that could possibly happen while in my care such as seizures etc. that way I’m prepared.

A typical day

Depending on the activity level of the dog, I’d love to go on frequent walks or play ball frequently. If a dog is more relaxed and doesn’t like to play with toys, I’m more than happy giving them some one-on-one cuddles and relaxing!

Pet care experience

My name is Lydia and I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve always lived in the country around Bluffton, Ohio and have had many pets! I wholeheartedly love all animals and am very experienced in taking care of different kinds of pets, especially dogs and cats. Im able to travel within a reasonable distance and can be pretty flexible with my AM work schedule! Prices are as shown unless your pet needs extra/unique care so we can discuss and I will charge accordingly.

Thank you Lydia for watching Peaches I’m sure she enjoyed her stay very much. She slept the entire day after she got home. Thanks again. Shawn & Kerry
