Visits & Stays You Can Trust🐾

My name is Lydia and I provide boarding, drop-ins, walks, and doggy daycare in a safe, loving, home-style environment where your dog will be treated like family. I’m home full time, so pets are rarely left alone and get lots of attention, supervision, cuddles, outdoor time, and play throughout the day. I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play, along with a separate dog room for a calm and comfortable space to relax. I also have two large kennels available in our air-conditioned garage for dogs who prefer more space or a quieter setup. I love dogs of all ages and have experience caring for playful puppies, including potty training and routines, as well as senior dogs who may need extra patience, gentle care, or more frequent potty breaks. While I’m newer to Rover and have only had a handful of clients here so far, I’ve built a strong reputation on Wag with a 5-star rating, 85 reviews, 91 completed services, and many repeat clients. My goal is always to make pet parents feel comfortable and confident knowing their dog is safe, happy, and loved while they’re away!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe and relaxed. I have a large, fully fenced-in backyard for secure outdoor play, and I always supervise pets while they’re outside. Inside, I make sure all pets have a comfortable space to rest and adjust at their own pace. I can separate dogs if needed and always pay close attention to their behavior to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. I am very attentive and experienced with dogs of all ages and energy levels—from young puppies to senior dogs who may need extra care and patience. I also have experience handling feeding routines, administering medications with clear instructions, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I will respect your space and follow all instructions closely to keep your pet on their normal routine. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment while providing reliable, loving care. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

Lydia was great with our 1 year old Lab. She sent pics and updates daily and responded quickly to our extra enquiries. It was 100+ outside for a couple of days and she let us know she was keeping him inside and hydrated during those days. We would recommend her to keep your fur baby happy and safe while you’re away.

I wanted to do a run through before I left for my trip. Lydia came on time, asked good questions, and was relaxed around my dogs.

Lydia was amazing with our dogs. Our dogs can take some getting used to boarding but she was patient and was able to get them calm and comfortable during their stay with her. She also provided updates and pictures of our dogs which was much appreciated.

Schedule

I am very flexible with my schedule and always aim to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I know how important consistency is, and keeping their usual schedule helps reduce stress and makes them feel more comfortable while you’re away. Whether that means specific feeding times, walks, playtime, crate routines, or bedtime habits, I will do my best to match what they’re used to at home. Since I am an online college student and stay at home mom to my toddler and home full-time, I’m able to adjust my day around your pet’s needs, by providing frequent potty breaks, attention, and care throughout the day.
