Excited to walk/look after your fur baby 🫶🏻

From my earliest memories, dogs and cats have been an integral part of my life. Growing up alongside energetic Border Collies, I developed an understanding of their needs and formed an unbreakable bond. My mornings used to involve walks before school, ensuring they started the day right. Walks would generally be to the park and include them being both on and off the lead. Unfortunately when my mum relocated, it was no longer possible for me to have dogs of my own at home. Since then I have been walking my boyfriend's dogs. Rest assured, your furry friends will be in the best hands, receiving not just attentive care, but also the warmth of a genuine dog lover. I have a car, with dog seatbelts ready, which will allow me to take your fur babies on a variety of adventures.

Safety, trust & environment

Due to previously being a carer in the community, I have got plenty of experience going in and out of client’s houses. Therefore I can reassure you, that I am a respectful and trustworthy individual to be looking after your pet in your home. Additionally, you would have no concerns regarding your fur baby as they will be given so much love and attention from me whilst you are away! Also, if you wish for me to send regular updates I will be more than happy to send over pictures during my time with them!

I can’t even begin to describe just how incredible Lydia was with our dog Petal. I was so nervous to leave her for the first time and Lydia couldn’t have put me more at ease. She sent multiple photo and video updates over the time she had her. Petal wasn’t just being looked after by Lydia she became part of the family whilst she was there, she was taken on day trips out, met extended family and friends and was taken on multiple stunning walks both on her own and meeting new 4 legged friends. I cannot recommend Lydia more highly. Absolutely 1000 out of 10 service.

Lydia was amazing. I think Maple would of stayed longer with her if she could of! Truly treated her like her own. We got updates and photos and Maple looked so happy. Couldn't of found a more lovely person to leave Maple with and will definitely use Lydia again.

Lydia was so friendly and professional — and excellent with our anxious rescue dog Ronnie. He usually mopes about when we aren’t there as he has separation anxiety, but we could see from the pics he was enjoying cuddles and playing ball in the garden which was lovely to see! We will definitely book sitting with Lydia again.

Let me know about any behaviours or special requirements I must be made aware of. I have experience with walking small and medium (Labrador/border collie) dogs. Nevertheless, despite little experience with large dogs, I am more than keen to gain experience and confident that I would be fine looking after larger dogs.
