Round the clock care for your baby!
Pet care experience
I have experience taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old, and I have over a year of experience caring for dogs on rover. My current dog, Gwyn, went through heartworm treatment when I adopted her and also has epilepsy so I know how to take care of dogs with medical problems that need medication at specific times during the day. Gwyn has been on daily medication for over two years so I am very experienced at administering oral medication. You can rest assured that your fur baby will get the best care and will be well taken care of.
Reviews
Lydia was amazing! She went above and beyond what I asked her to do. She took great care of my two cats while I was out of town.
Lydia did so great with our pup! He loved going on walks with her and she was so easy to communicate with. Would definitely book again. She sent many cute photos ?
Lydia was great! The communication ahead of time was excellent, drop-off and pick-up were super simple, and she sent me some great pictures during my dog’s stay. I definitely recommend Lydia and we will certainly book with her again in the future!
Lydia was so sweet with my pup and excellent with communication. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again :)

Safety, trust & environment
I can take your dog out as often as every hour if needed. I have a balcony, easy access to the trail on lady bird lake, and I always allow the dogs I watch to be up on the furniture and to sleep in bed with me. I also have a low traffic area behind my apartment in case your dog prefers a quieter area to go outside. My dog, Gwyn, (the tan one in pictures) is the only other dog in the home. She is very friendly and has a naturally calm and quiet personality which makes her a great fit with senior or special needs dogs. She had at least one litter before I adopted her, so she is great with puppies of all sizes.

Information Lydia W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that need to be accounted for so that I can prepare accordingly to ensure your pet has the best experience possible. I am unable to watch any dogs with resource guarding behavior. Due to the small size of my apartment, I am unfortunately unable to board large dogs (over 40lbs) that are high energy.
A typical day
I live by Lady bird lake and I love taking dogs for long walks on the trail. Also if you and your dog are comfortable with it, I love taking the dogs I watch to Zilker or to coffee shops and restaurants. Also due to the risk of algae, I never let the dogs I watch go near the water. And as a precaution I don’t let the dogs I watch off leash without the owner’s prior permission.

I work from home, so your pet will enjoy the benefits of constant attention throughout the day. I rarely leave my apartment for more than an hour during the week so your dog will never be alone for long.
