Dog Mom and dog lover

Pet care experience

I adopted my first dog, Maxine (as seen in the profile) and have have always been in love with dogs! like going for walks myself, and have an awesome backyard. I have a nice size home for your dog to roam if the weather isn’t so nice. I live close to a main road just as an FYI. I don’t mind instruction and strongly encourage you to let me know exactly how medication administration goes if they have any. Your dog getting along with other dogs and with children is a must please! For house sitting, I can migrate to your house, but would likely bring my 2 dogs at times (very friendly!) Throw me a message!

Lydia was a perfect and much needed distraction for Nester! He certainly enjoyed his visit and we appreciated all the texts and pictures. Would definitely reach out again😉

Lydia was the best! She took Sophie to the dog park and hiking with Max . Sophie had a great time. Lydia sent numerous pictures throughout Sophie's stay. Would definitely use her again !

Lydia was awesome! Super sweet and communicative! She sent lots of pictures and videos of my boys. They had a ton of fun going to the park each day and getting lots of exercise. If I’m ever back in the area I will definitely use her again.

Our beagle (Sunny) had a great time with Lydia and her dog, Maxine. Lydia sent several pix and updates during the 3-day stay, and when we went to pick up our pup to go home, she was in no hurry to leave — she obviously enjoys being there. Lydia loves dogs and it shows. We’ve already booked two more stays this summer.

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to take your dog out for walks in the backyard frequently. I also go to the dog park often! High energy and low energy dogs like I have seem to have a great day and usually feel right at home. Maxine and Benji usually just needs a couple of minutes to adjust to it. As a piece they can have from home and in case they have a hard time adjusting, I have found the fur friend’s crate is an awesome tool and safe haven they are able to have. As it is not absolutely necessary, I strongly recommend they come with a crate from home 🙂
