I Love Dogs and Dogs Love Me!

Pet care experience

For me, pet sitting is a win-win situation. My husky, Sasha, loves the company of other dogs, and I do too! We're so excited to make more furry friends. I grew up with dogs my whole life. When I was a young child we had a crazy dachshund and later we had a standard poodle who used to be a show dog. Now I'm the proud parent of Sasha, my Siberian Husky. We have had Sasha since she was 5 months old, she's now 2.5 years old and I can't imagine life without her. Raising her has been one of the best experiences of my life. I currently work the night shift at a restaurant and my husband works as a freelance photographer so between the two of us, someone is always home to spend time with the dogs. I am social, easygoing, and funny. I promise to treat your pet just like you do, like part of the family! I love dogs and love having other dogs over for Sasha to play with. She's really made some great dog friends from our time boarding and its made her a better dog and me a better pet parent.

Lydia is great with Juno, and I really like that they have a secure outdoor space for her to play in. She's a very social, energetic dog and Lydia's dog Sasha is a great play partner for Juno. Juno hates leaving, because she's essentially at camp with a bunch of dog friends when she stays over Lydia's house.

I have been using Lydia and Sean for quite awhile. My dog is besties with their dog , Sasha. They also have friends over often who are also dog lovers, so it's a great environment. I will continue to use them when I can!

My dog gets so excited when she realizes we are headed to Lydia's place! She comes home happy and tired. Great people!

Lydia and Sean were great hosts. Our dog scout and their husky got along great and had an awesome time playing together all week. Good communication too. Will be using again.

Information Lydia G. would like to know about your pet

We don't have a breed preferences but we prefer dogs that are well socialized and not aggressive. While we prefer medium to large dogs we aren't adverse to a feisty little guy who love to play with larger dogs. Before they come to visit, I'd love to know what their health and activity life is like, and if they have any special needs.

A typical day

We have a large enclosed lot where our doggies can play. Sasha is a very playful dog and will provide hours of entertainment if your dog is into playing. I want to know what your dog's typical routine is like, so I can stick to it, as well as the activities they usually enjoy, so that I can make their life as similar as it is to their life at home.
