Dog Lover!

Willing to walk most nights a week Worked with large dogs (mainly Great Danes) Have worked with a reactive dog (Family Pet) Dog was reactive on lease with other dogs. When walking I had to be very aware of other dogs that were around and had to be able to move quick when I did see a dog also had treats to distract him from the other dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my parents dog and love him very much, when I watch him we usually will hang out in the house or go to the dog park because that is where my parents take him. When I watch someone else dog I like to follow their rules and listen to what they are asking of me. I have watched my sister's dog who is reactive and when watching him I have made sure that I am aware of what he is doing, what I am doing and what is around me. Personally I don't think that the way I care for my parents and families pets would be different from a clients because all pets should be loved!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Lydia! She kept us updated the whole time with pictures and messages, and it was obvious our dog was so loved and well cared for while we were away. Super reliable, kind, and easy to communicate with. We came home to a happy pup and total peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lydia was fabulous with my two dogs and cat. She was very responsive and the dogs seemed to really enjoy spending time with her! She was in constant contact an sent pictures frequently which was appreciated as we miss our pets!

Beau goes crazy with excitement when Lydia shows up for his walk - can’t recommend her more if you need a walker for your dog! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lydia is a wonderful dog sitter and walker. She took excellent care of my Great Dane Luna when I went away several times. Luna loved her very much. She’s on time and follows instructions. On 2 occasions I was away for two weeks, Lydia sent me photos and Luna was totally calm and happy when I returned each time.

Important to know would be if they have any triggers (if they don't like other dogs/people etc.), likes and don't likes, the pets favorite things (treats, toys, blankets).
