Information Lydia T. would like to know about your pet

It's important that I know about any special needs, medications or behavioral issues. With this information I can give your pet the best possible care.

A typical drop in consists of introductions where I may get on the ground and allow your pet to come to me, followed by basic care per your instructions such as feeding or potty breaks, and play time.

Patient, considerate caregiver

Pet care experience

I'm a pet person with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I've raised two litters of kittens, and have done remedial training with dogs with learned negative behaviors. I'm all about positive reinforcement, consistency, and celebrating the tiny victories with praise and lots of love ❤️ I'm comfortable administering care per your instructions for some special needs pets.

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.
