Information Lydia B. would like to know about your pet

If your dog prefers certain things or has any issues near water then that would be good to know! I try to keep my dog on a lead when she's visiting and we used to be near the thames as she loves a swim but isn't very good!

A typical day

I live a stones throw away from lots of grass and also have a garden, when my dogs are visiting, this is where we go and they love it! As well as physical activity, mental stimulation is beneficial, creating puzzles for them to find treats or their dinner.

Lydia B.'s Neighborhood

Pet lover who loves a walk!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with pets my whole life, from hamsters to cats, and more recently I grew up with two lovely black labradors - Charley and Flo. Flo is still bouncing around at the age of 12 and does come for a sleepover now and then, but I do miss having dogs around so am keen to share my love for animals with others. Whether its a walk around the block or staying over I would love to help out.

As always, Lydia was absolutely wonderful with Ellie, and kindly flexed plans for us and dropped Ellie off at home when our train was later than planned.

We felt very comfortable leaving Leo with Lydia, she was very welcoming and attentive. Leo had the best time and seemed really happy to be with her and in her home. I would highly recommend!
