I have over 10 years of experience caring for family dogs, and I have personally raised my own dog from a puppy, caring for him for over 2 years. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of a dog's needs, from basic care to providing companionship and attention.

Lydia was super sweet and accommodating. The dogs loved her from day 1. She gave detailed daily updates along with pics. We definitely recommend Lydia and will be booking her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a comfortable townhome with a small, fenced-in yard, providing a safe outdoor space for your dog to play and relax. Additionally, there is a dog park nearby, which offers an excellent opportunity for sniffs & walks. I live in a friendly neighborhood & will often take your pups on walk so we can both get fresh air.

Pets

A typical day

We start our mornings together at 7:00 AM, waking up and sharing breakfast as a little “pack.” I love these cozy moments at the start of the day, where everyone’s calm and content. After we fuel up, we head out for a refreshing walk around the neighborhood. Whether we’re tossing toys in the backyard or just rolling around with our favorite squeaky toys indoors, playful bursts of energy are the best. The dogs get their wiggles out, and we have plenty of time for cuddles in between. I love watching each dog’s personality shine during these moments. When it’s time to recharge, we settle in for nap time—there’s nothing like the peaceful sight of a pup drifting off to sleep after a fun morning. Midday means it’s time to stretch our legs again with another walk. We explore, take our time, and soak in the outdoors. After dinner, we have one last evening walk to end the day on a peaceful note. With the sky getting dark and the streets calm, it’s a nice way for us to unwind and just enjoy each other’s company.
