“Lydia did a fantastic job looking after my two rabbits Forest and Wolf while I was on holiday! It was really important to me that my rabbits were cared for by someone who really understands bunny behaviour and how to look after them. I knew straight away that Lydia would be perfect as her knowledge and love for bunnies really shines through."

Hi, I’m Lydia, the founder of Hoppiness Pet Care. I am proud to offer professional, reliable pet care services from dog walks, home visits and drop-ins, small animal grooming, and even professional pet photography!

Making sure you have peace of mind while I care for your pet is really important, so I'm fully insured, DBS checked, trained in pet sitting, dog walking, and pet first aid, and am proudly animal-obsessed! I have years of experience with many animals, even volunteering with assistance dogs, and rescue dogs in the US.

I treat your home like I would my own, and every pet like they’re part of the family - which usually means plenty of cuddles, play, and a cheeky treat (if allowed, of course).
