Pet care experience

Your dog's new bestie

I've been surrounded by dogs my whole life - our first ever rescue dog, Tasha arrived a few months before I was born. I grew up in a home surrounded by dogs, and also took on dog walking responsibilities for some of our neighbours (one of those dogs ended up coming to live with me in the end, but that's another story...). I also took on dog sitting duties for a landlady's adorable pup as we got on so well!

Lydia is a great cat sitter. She provided daily updates and photos, took the time to play with our kitten, and made sure all of our cat’s needs were met. I came home to a relaxed, happy cat.

Lydia is great. She is very responsive and provided us a lot of updates. Cats had a good time when we’re away.

Lydia was a great cat sitter! She came over in advance to meet Ottie, took really good care of her and sent updates and the whole thing went really smoothly. Would 100% recommend :)

Lydia is the perfect cat sitter, she is so communicative, present and brilliant, and Neptune loved her. Fantastic and a lovely person too. You must book her, but don't book her when I want to book her!!

Lydia is fantastic with dogs and other animals. Having grown up with dogs, she's sensitive to their needs and understands the demands of taking care of them. She is excellent at following instructions and completely trustworthy. She was often in charge of our family Labrador, taking him for walks, playing with him, and giving him a good brush when he was moulting. One of her landladies also used to go away sometimes and was very happy to leave Lydia looking after her dog. I can thoroughly recommend her for her care.
