Hello, I'm Lydia! I'm 32 years old and am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm in the Waikato and also had many household pets my whole life. Over the years, I've looked after dogs, cats, rabbits, lambs, guinea pigs, fish, ducks, chickens and goats. 

I lived in London for two years and worked with a number of families as a nanny, which also involved running a household, looking after pets and sometimes house-sitting. 

I'm currently living in a flat with our cat Poppy which is great but it is always nice to have a break away and hang out with some other furry friends too. 

I work as a freelance photographer and still do some nannying also. I can be quite flexible and am happy to pet/house-sit anywhere in Auckland. I'm not currently available to petsit at my own property. 

I am a responsible adult, a caring and loyal person with a calming energy. I'm active and happy to do whatever you need to look after your pets and home. 

Would love to hear from you, chat soon! 🐈‍⬛🐕
