Loving, playful household

Pet care experience

Growing up, I had multiple dogs; some permanent, some foster, and some from rescue organizations. I come from a family of animal lovers and have carried that love into my adult life. It’s apparently genetic, because I now have two daughters who want nothing more than a pet to love on - they adore both dogs and cats, and pride themselves on their "gentle hands" (and bear hugs, and fetch arm). We would be thrilled to welcome kid friendly pets into our home for boarding. We take lots of walks, hikes, visits to our local elementary school playground (where there is a large fenced field for dogs to run around), and have lots of family snuggle time. I will also do house visits, with our without the kids. If you have a pet who likes to be showered with love, we have the house for you! Our entire family is excited about welcoming your pet into our home.

Lydia took wonderful care of Sage! I could tell he had a great day. She was attentive to his special health needs and was very careful with the COVID considerations. She shared updates and responded quickly. So happy to have found her!

Barrett loved the attention and care he received from Lydia and her children. Lydia communicated with us and sent photos.

Lydia and her sweet family took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy for a week while we were out of town. She sent us messages and pictures every day. I felt totally at ease and knew he was being loved and cared for. We will not hesitate to ask them again to care for our boy and highly recommend them!

We left our 12-week-old puppy with Lydia for a few hours while we visited Monticello nearby. She and her family were wonderful! Communication was smooth as well.
