Information Lydia G. would like to know about your pet

All I ask of owners is just a brief explanation of their dogs character, tendencies and desires and to provide any food he or she might need during its rover experience!

A typical day

I can do any kinds of activities ranging for daily walks to playing and games, to mental stimulation sniffing treat tasks or even just some general loving and fuss! Happy to do anything the owner wants or requests.

A self-professed animal whisperer!

Pet care experience

I have plenty of experience in pet care; I'm often looking after my parents senior dog, as well as frequently sitting for neighbours, friends and my our friends family - see my photos, I am always with someones dog! Animal care genuinely comes naturally to me and is something I take a real enjoyment out of. Rest assured I am the first to find the household pet at any gathering or party! I have also done animal shelter volunteering in Sri Lanka and Thailand. This experience opened my eyes, and whilst caused some tears, also managed to expand my adoration and understanding of and what they need and want. In terms of skills, I am well experienced and equipped to walk your dogs, to play with both dogs and cats with toys. I also single handedly trained my now senior dog as a puppy, and would be more than happy to help with any training and tricks that you would like.

Lydia was great with Raja. He immediately warmed to her and gave her good bye hugs. Lydia was quick to respond to messages and really flexible with timings. Will book with her again 😊. Thanks!

Lydia has been fantastic to have looking after the cats. They instantly took to her and she was always clear and communicative. Absolutely would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter
