Pet care experience
My home is set up for Cozy, smaller dog breeds. I love spoiling them! We have a great patio & yard area for doggy play time!! I will be sure and upload pictures of your little family member and their adventures!! I pride myself in a Safe furr baby home environment. Specifically, so you may also enjoy your time away...I make sure Your pup is protected from rough play and and discourage all dogs from jumping or mounting other dogs. This is to help keep a happy go lucky, fun, safe, doggy friendly home environment. I have had years of experience in dog rescue and the fostering world. Ask me about my one on one behavior training and puppy obedience classes. Nothing makes me happier than having a lot of furry friends around. I am friendly, affectionate, loving and trusting doggy lover! My house is doggy friendly, good space and very welcoming. I have a perfect yard for sun and fresh air! I am very service oriented, so our home revolves around your doggy's needs. Whatever your needs and preferences are I follow that routine as closely as possible. I'm an active person and love to take them for walks. We have a nice safe neighborhood and my immediate surrounding neighbors all love dogs. Your dog would LOVE to spend quality time with us! :o) I know how much we love our babies! I chose to specialize in small doggy care, since having had my own teacups. I know they need extra TLC! I enjoy spoiling your little ones! I admit I also love doggy play time!

Reviews
Loved the photos and daily updates.
Lydia is so sweet and kind and im so thankful to have found her! Highly recommend!
Our boys love staying with Lydia! She’s watched them for us twice now and we’ve been so happy with how she cares for our chihuahuas. Lydia genuinely cares about our pups and gives us the peace of mind to enjoy our time away from our boys.
Lydia is amazing! My first time using Rover and leaving my one-year-old Lola with someone. She updated me with pictures daily and had similar size and temperament smaller dogs that made it more fun for Lola while she was staying. I liked that when I picked her up, she gave me recommendations on things. I could work on with her as she's growing out of puppy phases, always a joy to communicate with, and will use Lydia again often as I travel

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 6 ft block wall all the way around the yard, with a full privacy locked gate. Fur babes are always left inside the home if I need to step out for any reason. They usually all just follow me around the house! Lol Front door is always locked and an inside gate keeps them from running out, and is just an extra layer of safety.
Home
Information Lydia M. would like to know about your pet
I would prefer small dog breeds that are between 1-25 lbs. I do require that all clients have regular flea treatments,nails trimmed, groomed, and are up to date on all their shots. Please let me know before the stay if your fur babe has special needs, anxiety, food aggression, or any special care needed. I need to be sure I can accommodate them in the required manner needed during their time with me:) If your babe suffers from separation anxiety, please ask your vet for Calming medication. Please do not bring over if your dog is experiencing any flu like symptoms, direrea, or RSV please take to vet first as a precaution. Safety first.
A typical day
Depending on their individual energy level , will determine their activities:) Here's where we'll take our walks We have walking trails near the golf course or/and around our gated community. I am always on alert for other dogs that may not be on a leash. Safety first at all times. Your dog's sleeping arrangement In their doggy beds, my lap, or my bed, really just wherever he/she feels comfy :) Time I'll spend with your dog I am home much of the time. I will be playing, walking, eating dinner and snuggling on the couch watching a movie with fur babies :)
