Lydia is such a welcoming.and kind person, it was a pleasure to use her services again. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. My dog was so well cared for, happy, and relaxed, and it was clear she received lots of love and attention whilst on her holiday. Waëla was bouncing off the car windows with excitement when we turned into Lydia's street for drop off. Great communication throughout, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I would happily recommend Lydia to anyone and will definitely be booking again!

Lydia took great care of my old girl, taking her for walks and making sure she was comfortable and well looked after. Excellent service! Will be booking with her again. Wholeheartedly recommend! 👌

We couldn’t be happier with the care our Ace received. He was looked after with exceptional attention, had loads of fun and came home relaxed and happy. Lydia was incredibly welcoming and really understood his lively personality. We highly recommend her and Ace will hopefully be returning for future stays.☺️

Lydia was a great sitter for our retriever, Bilbo. Great communication throughout with lots of videos and pictures to keep us updated. Bilbo was looked after very well and we would absolutely recommend Lydia and family to others 👌
