    About Lydia

    
I provide attentive, personalized care for your pets to ensure they feel right at home. Whether it’s administering medication, offering basic obedience training, or providing grooming such as brushing and bathing, I’ve got you covered. I’m comfortable managing special dietary needs or medications, so rest assured your pet’s health is a top priority.
For boarding, I limit the number of dogs I care for at a time to ensure each one receives the attention they need. Typically, I’ll board up to 1 dog at once, ensuring a calm and safe environment. I offer two 30-45 minute walks per day, tailored to your dog’s energy level and exercise needs. In addition, I provide plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship to keep them happy and relaxed.
Pets in my care are never left alone for more than 1 hour during daycare and no longer than 3 hours during overnight boarding. I study at home, so I’m able to supervise guest pets almost 24/7, ensuring they have constant companionship. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine as I structure my work around walks, feeding times, and play sessions.
I live in a cozy, pet-friendly home with no other so your dog will enjoy a peaceful environment. Guest pets are allowed to sleep wherever they feel most comfortable—whether that’s in a crate, a designated pet bed, or even on the couch! I have a fully fenced backyard with secure gates, offering a safe space for your dog to explore and play.
I’m available throughout the week and weekends, offering flexible drop-off and pick-up times. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them with a loving, caring home away from home! I love spending all my time with the dogs when they come over. We go on plenty of walks, spend lots of time playing and of-course lots and lots of cuddling😅 I enjoy being in the house most of the day so they will never be left alone. I’ve had dogs my whole life and being away from them while being at university is a big loss. I’ve taken care of small and very large dogs and feel very confident with both. I also love puppies and don’t mind cleaning up after them. The dogs will sleep in my room. If you provide me with a bed it will be placed in my room but if not they are more than welcome to sleep on the bed. I have a decent size back yard for extra play time and walks are adjusted depending the dogs size.

    Alf had the best day with Lydia - absolutely showered with love and attention. I appreciated how sensible and responsible she seemed, which put my mind at ease. Alf has come back very happy and very tired from all the fun and he can't wait to hang out again.
