About Lydia



I am looking to help people with their animals including but not limited to: exercising, feeding, medications, grooming and check ins. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments as well as cats, guinea pigs, horses, donkeys, mini horses, fish, and reptiles. It would be my pleasure to make your life easier by making your pets life better!


I offer walks and home visits


Walking and spending time with the pet
If it is too cold or too hot to walk the dog, alternative forms of physical exercise or enrichment for the dog as agreed to by the owner
No off lead dog play unless allowed by the owner in an appropriate area.
Home Visits-Price includes the care of up to 3 pets- Can administer oral medication.
Cats - clean litter tray and spend time with the cat
Dogs - spend time engaging and playing with the dog. Dogs will be brought out to the toilet.
Puppies/senior dogs - clean up any mess made by the dog
Small pets - Tidy cages and do a full clean if the booking is more than 4 days
I can be available by appointment during a variety of times throughout the week. I am reliable and will truly care about your animals well being.


I've loved animals since I was a little girl in Kentucky. My days were spent learning about every dog breed in our encyclopaedia (yes we had actual encyclopaedias at my house when I was a kid) I would use my spending money to buy treats for my neighbours dog so I could teach it tricks. I would beg to take dogs on walks and even picked up a job walking 2 Dobermans when I was only 8. The love for animals didn't stop at childhood. As an adult, I moved to Hawaii and started my own hobby farm where I taught horseback riding lessons to children, adults and riders with special needs. I got experience medicating, feeding, and rehabilitating animals of various species.


In 2014, I got the opportunity to move to Australia and have been here ever since. We have a very boisterous 2 year old German Shepherd who is our companion and friend. She's an absolute joy and we love her so much.

Our Labrador Jill absolutely loved Lydia. She took great care of her and sent lots of photos for our peace of mind. Very happy with her service and will be booking again the next time we need a sitter. Thanks Lydia 🐶
