Why Me?
I am an experienced pet sitter. I live on a small farm where we currently have reptiles, chickens, ducks, and dogs so I am very familiar with caring for a large variety of pets. I also helped my mom start and run a non-profit rescue for two years. By having me come to your home, it is convient for you and your pet(s). There is no need to gather up favorite bedding, toys, special food, or medications. My service allows your pet(s) to remain in their familiar and healthy environment, eliminating the stress of a car ride to a boarding facility and kenneled where there are unfamiliar sounds and smells. It also eliminates the chance of your pet(s) possibility contracting a contagious kennel cough or other communicable illnesses. The BEST advantage of my service is your pet(s) receive quality one on one love and affection as if they were my own.

pet Owner Reviews
“Lydia took great care of our animals on many occasions. She made sure all animals were cared for, fed, and safe. She communicated well with us while we were away. We felt completely confident with her expertise. She loves animals and you can tell by the careful attention she gives each one. We highly recommend Lydia to anyone needing pet care!”
“Lydia was super knowledgeable and pleasant to work with when we had her care for our dogs while we were out of town. She was genuine and patient. I would highly recommend her to anyone who loves their pets.”
“We live on a small farm and have had Lydia care for our animals and reptiles several times. She was very easy to work with and was always timely with her responses when we asked for updates about our pets. She was so kind to send pics as well. Our experience with Lydia’s services has been nothing less than professional! We highly recommend her for your pet care!
Lydia is the most reliable, trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter I’ve ever met! She truly goes above and beyond. She has loved on our babies for a few years now and there’s no one else I trust quite like her. She even helped us when our dog was sick, medicated him for us just as ordered from the vet and I never worried if it was done correctly. A great bonus is that she sends the best pics of your fur babies while you’re gone without even having to ask! I feel so at ease when I know she’s there for our dogs. Our dog loves her just like he loves us and so do we! We are able to give her full access to our house and never once worry about her responsibility while we’re gone. We can’t say enough positive things about Lydia!
