Caring sitters & large backyard :D

Pet care experience

Drew and I are so excited to welcome your dog into our home! We've been petsitting for friends and family for the past three years, and enjoying meeting new pets. We just bought a home in south Austin just off William Cannon, and have a spacious backyard. Our hound mix Jasper is very extroverted, and loves meeting new dogs. In terms of pet experience, I grew up with multiple animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, and sheep. Drew didn't have as many pets growing up, but is making up for lost time! He's never met an animal that didn't like him :) We've had experience caring for both elderly dogs, and high energy dogs.

It was so nice to have Lydia drop in on the boys for us during a busy week. They appreciated their potty breaks & snacks.

Lydia was really great with our senior boys while we were out of the country. She even went above and beyond by taking my 100lb (big baby) German Shepherd to the vet after she noticed a nose bleed. Will definitely book with Lydia again and can not recommend her enough :)

Our pup had the best time with Lydia! She picked her up from day care, took her home, played with her and fed her. We got regular updates and some great photos! Will definitely book with Lydia again

Lydia was so fantastic with our two mini poodles while we were on vacation for a week. It was great that we were able to meet Lydia and her dog Jasper ahead of time at their house, and that we could see how relaxed Jasper was with our pets in his domain, and that when we dropped them off a few days later it was to a home they'd visited before. She texted every day with updates and pictures of our pups. We were confident that medication, walks, and feeding were all under control, and most important, we knew they were with someone who truly cares.

Information Lydia P. would like to know about your pet

We want to ensure your dog will be comfortable, so we always schedule a "Meet and Sniff" before booking a boarding. That way Jasper can pass the sniff test with your dog, and vice versa. We're open to different ages and breeds, but recognize that each individual pupper has their own persona, and we might not be the best fit for everyone ?

A typical day

Our neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and walkable, with a nature preserve directly behind our home. We also live close to several parks including Dick Nichols and Longview.
