I love everything to do with dogs!

Pet care experience

Hi there, I’m Lydia! I have my own dog so I make it my mission to always accommodate to her because she is obviously reliant on me. I walk her everyday, even make sure to take her on walks off leash in the woods. We just do everything together. When I am older, I don’t want kids, I want dogs :) I am an experienced dog walker. I have house sat three dogs for a week previously. I know all that comes with caring for a dog. I have trained my dogs as well.

Lydia has always had a genuine love of dogs and cats. She is responsible and caring, making sure our pets are walked, fed and bathed. Lydia has dog sat for neighbors and friends, and they appreciate how trustworthy and attentive she is.

We trust our pets & kiddos with Lydia! She’s very reliable & responsive. We have a Golden that Lydia is wonderful with including overnight stays.

Lydia is dependable and conscientious. Her love of animals is very evident when you see her interact with pets. I would have no hesitation highly recommending her as a pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs need you. Therefore, it is important to put them at priority. Some ways I do this would be always making sure the dogs have water. That they don’t feel overlooked. Always making sure they’ve been let out to go potty every half hour to hour. Or when the dogs let me know. Always making sure that they are walked every day. Sometimes twice a day if I’m not doing anything else. And of course, always making sure to play with them!

Information Lydia B. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know the basics. Like if your dog is shy or not. I am all about respecting dog’s boundaries. Also if your pet is taking medications that I’d need to distribute.

A typical day

I like to take the pets I watch somewhere off leash. I live right across from a trail head that I know through and through. I like to take the dogs on the back trails where no one goes so they can be off leash without disturbing other hikers. Off leash walks are so important for dogs in my opinion. They are so stimulating for dogs!

Pet care is an everyday routine of mine. Coming home to walk my dogs, feed them, etc. My life is never without a dog. I have walked dogs in my neighborhood for my neighbors who don’t have the time. My schedule has always allowed me to be flexible and available.
