Home from home pet care, genuine animal lover

Pet care experience

I have had both cats and dogs from a very young age. I had looked after my family Labrador for 15 years as well as a feisty jack russell for 13. I have regularly looked after friends Pets either staying over at houses or the pets coming to mine. I feel confident with all sized animals and will always try and stick to routines and ongoing training. I thoroughly enjoy walking and an added buddy to walk with is always a bonus. Of note Ollie is listed as my pet however does not reside at the address it is only listed as sometimes I have him staying and require a dog sitter myself

Thanks again Lydia for looking after our dogs. The 4 of them can be a handful but we know they are well looked after when you stay over. Hopefully you'll come back again if we need you.

Lydia looked after our dog, Nikko during our trip to London. She was caring and patient with Nikko and provided first class care. We were given regular updates and photos during our trip. We would definitely use her again, and Nikko approves too!

Excellent with our puppy, particularly good at setting boundaries with puppy biting. Thanks for covering at short notice!

I have a fenced small rear garden where your pet could freely roam supervised or unsupervised. I have no others pets at the moment but looking at fostering possibly in the near future. I would happily have them in a crate or give them free roam if they prefer. I can also keep them downstairs if that’s what they’re used to. They would be allowed on the sofas and plenty of space to bring their own beds and blankets. There’s a lot of local walks and parks I can take the dogs too nearby also.

Information Lydia S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if the dog or cat needs medication and how often I need to give it them and the dosage. If the pet can be brought with their own supplies of food, toys and bed also so they feel like it a home from home.

A typical day

I love playing with both dogs and cats, I will always play with them and their toys given them treats as rewards and work on training them if needs be. There are plenty country walks around where I live and local parks to take the dogs to.
