Lydia is the BEST and we are SO lucky to have found her. We sadly lost one of our pups to cancer during the pandemic. Our other pup, Ripley, was very attached to him and her behavior changed after he passed. We knew she needed more exercise and stimulation, but because she had also developed a case of fear aggression, we had to be very careful and selective in who we chose to care for her. Lydia was so amazing with her and truly approaches her work like a seasoned behaviorist. She taught us and Ripley so many valuable lessons, and we saw Ripley make tremendous improvements after each of her fitness walks. We absolutely love Paw Treks and highly recommend!

Lydia is amazing with my beagle/bulldog mix, Mercutio! I’ve used her service three times so far and every time, he comes back absolutely pooped (in the best way possible). He is a BALL of energy (he’s 5 years-old and still has the energy of a young pup) so a solid hike where he can run and explore like the ones she takes him on are perfect. Also, he’s a bit of an alpha and doesn’t get along with all dogs, so the hikes are a great alternative to busy dog parks. Lydia is warm, friendly, loves dogs and is extremely punctual. She picks Mercutio up in her Paw Treks jeep from my house and texts me just before heading on the trail and again when they are heading home. When she arrives, Mercutio is ecstatic (literally jumps all over her - sorry Lydia) because he knows he’s going to get another exciting day on the trail. The videos and photos she sends from the trail are also amazing. She even put a go-pro camera on him so I could check out the trail from his POV. I would definitely recommend using Lydia’s service to anyone with a busy schedule who wants to give their dog the best workout of his week!

YES YES YES for Lydia and Paw Treks! My dog is in love with his adventure hikes, and Lydia is the absolute best when it comes to dogs. She understands behaviors, knows a dogs limitations, and treats my boy as though he were her own. She texts me when theyre at the location, so I know theyre safe. She takes a break halfway through the hike, so my dog cant get some rest. She sends me pics when she can, and by the time he comes home, he is ABSOLUTELY WIPED!This service is seriously one-of-a-kind. I highly recommend Lydia because she is trustworthy and KNOWS DOGS...pretty much speaks dog! When I say your dog will love this, I truly mean it. So worth it, over and over again:)

Paw Treks is such an incredible service!! I’ve used it since I first adopted my dog, Poppy. Paw Treks has helped me with my dogs initial separation anxiety, socializing for dog parks and general training/etiquette. Poppy LOVES her hikes with Lydia and you can see their mutual love for one another!...and don’t get me started on the pictures and footage she shares- I’m always wishing I’d done the hikes also! :-)Lydia is so gentle, patient, caring and firm (when necessary)! I’ve learned a lot about being a strong and responsible dog owner from her. I’m so thankful to have found Paw Treks!!!

I have only praise for Lydia. I was very impressed with her because I have two Dobermans and they are large dogs - both over 100lbs. so naturally some people are afraid of them. They are not mean dogs, but they look a bit scary because of their size and breed. Lydia never flinched, she was in charge instantly and they took to her immediately.Shes great!!!

I cannot stress enough how amazing Lydia was with my very active dog Seven.You can immediately tell she is a true dog lover, very attentive and caring.One week I was getting super busy with my work and Seven was getting restless cooped up in my apartment.Seven is a miniature pincher pug mix and very rambunctious if she doesn’t get some outside time.I was given Lydia’s contact from a friend and hired her to take Seven on a fun hike on Monday and a long city trek on Thursday.Lydia is very responsive and answered within a couple hours when I had questions about the location of the hike and what supplies she takes with her.Seven warmed up to Lydia right away. And on the second dog walk Seven lit up as soon as she saw her at the door.Lydia even took some adorable Instagram worthy pictures of Seven on the hike.
