“Poochland” -n- Goochland, LLC 🤎🐶

Pet care experience

I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for years for a lot of my church congregation. From staying with pets in their homes or having them stay at my home, Ive done both. Its such a joy to have a bonus fur babe for a night or two…or week! They’ll be loved like they’re my own. I am home 90% of the time, so your fur child will get lots of love and attention. As of present, my only job (the best job) is Rover while I finish graduate degree. I have a large, fenced in back yard…my home has a very open floor plan which they have full access to. I recently have established myself as a licensed business and also carry additional insurance. Your peace of mind and your for baby safety is very important to me. And lastly, because I also enjoy crafting…Your dog he will receive a souvenir during their stay. Yes I know, so extra! This has truly become a hobby and a passion. I am home all the time, but its great because it’s beautiful out here with the “country” vibes of Goochland, yet ONLY 10 mns from Short Pump (and Powhatan). There’s a big fenced yard and a beautiful sunroom where they can lounge and squirrel watch. My fur child sleeps in my King size bed and I have let a lot of my furry guests sleep with me also (if thats what your doggie is used to). 2200 sq foot, open floor plan that they have full access to. Lots of windows to gaze out…living room views feel like you’re in a tree house and doggies love the sights.

Lydia was wonderful with my Yorkie-Poo. The pictures sent to me showed Ashby a happy pup. I will definitely use Lydia to care for my dog again in the future.

Poochland was the best place for my ShihTzu Berne when I went to the beach. I looked at traditional dog boarding places, and they were all filled up, and more expensive, and the dogs got way less. At poochland the dogs basically stay inside a nice air conditioned house, and they have a fenced in backyard. My dog seemed to be very content there. The owner was also very friendly and easy to work with

Information Lydia C. would like to know about your pet

Personality type of your fur baby! I’ll treat them like my own so you tell me what they’re accustomed to. And of course all their quirks so I can make them as comfortable as possible. Dogs must be up to date on vaccines as well as on a flea prevention.

A typical day

Lots of play in the big fenced back yard that’s plenty shady and truly a doggy haven for fun and continuous adventure! There’s a small pool for splashing and lounging for water loving pups. There is a community pond in the neighborhood that’s our go-to for walks (about 1.5 miles round trip).
