Ratings and reviews
Lydia took great care of our dog. We’d like to thank her again for her flexibility and attention she paid to Florence. We will definitely be using Lydia’s services again
Piper immediately took to Lydia and had a nice time cuddling up! Very happy pawrents!
Lydia did a fantastic job looking after our family dog for the weekend. She patiently answered all our questions beforehand and kept us fully updated with how he was doing. We would definitely like to use her services again!
Lydia was so brilliant with my dog - he stayed with her overnight and she kept me posted the whole time. Plus he loved her amazing garden! I’ll definitely be rebooking ?
Lydia was really great with Alfie. She sent lots of pictures and updates. He looked very happy and had lots of lovely walks!
Lydia has looked after my jackapoo for the weekend twice now, and is so lovely and reassuring. I requested updates as I was nervous about leaving my boy alone for the first time. She sent me regular photos and information without needing to prompt her. She has a great garden space that my boy loved, which is also very secure. Will definitely be booking again and can’t reccomend enough.

Schedule
I work from home most days so I am very flexible! I always get out and about in the morning, during lunch, and after work; going round many of the wonderful local parks and so looking after a dog is incorporated in that well.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a secure flat with my partner near park space. The flat itself is a safe and new building which is very dog friendly. Our flat is a peaceful home, so there's no strangers or disruptive noise, it's a very peaceful place for dogs to be. I only ever look after one dog at a time and I never leave a dog alone, at any point, so your dog will always have company. I personally am fine with dogs on the sofa/bed, however I can keep up training of keeping the dog off a sofa/bed if that's how the owner prefers.
A typical day
I am a big walker, and love the big open spaces of bushy park and herbert park, so i can let them regularly play, run and socialise. Other than that, I'm a home body, so it will be some playing in the flat, watching TV - if your dog is a big fan of naps! Our flat is a lovely and holy place, so there's no strangers or disruptive noise, it's a very peaceful place for dogs to be. I never leave the dogs alone, not even for five/ten minutes, and so I don't agree to a booking unless I know that I am able to be with the dog/take the dog with me on daily activities 100% of the time. I also have friends who have dogs, and in the past owners have mentioned they were looking to socialise their dogs more, so I can arrange co-walks with friendly friend's dogs, if that's something of interest.
