SW based animal lover with experience in pet care
Pet care experience
I have always been a massive lover of all animals, and when asked if I'm a dog or cat person I find it a difficult choice! However, having grown up with dogs in our family home, I think dogs have a particularly special place in my heart. I am frequently entrusted to walk and house sit friends' pets (both dogs and cats) and always love the experience as sadly my tenancy does not allow pets :( I have previously volunteered as a dog walker for the Blue Cross, and completed training with them regarding vigilance and safety during dog walks. I was also previously employed as an Event Manager for a Pets Yoga company for 1 1/2 years, where my primary role was to care for and ensure the safety of the animals in our care (puppies & kittens) and make sure they were happy and comfortable during the events. As part of my training in this role I also completed a dog First Aid course.
Reviews
Once again, Lisa was super helpful and accommodating to my last minute booking. She always takes good care of my cat and always makes sure to send me pictures and updates!
Lisa was on time, plenty of photos and Buzz loved his time with her 😊
Every time Lisa has had bella she’s been amazing at looking after her, from puppy to teenager stage. Would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet.
Lisa was such an amazing sitter! She watch my cat for a few days and was great with responding to my messages, and she sent great pictures everyday! Will absolutely be booking her again!
About Lisa D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
With all animals, I believe we should respect their free will and allow them their own space when they want it. So while I am affectionate and loving to them when they are in a playful or cuddly mood, I won't bother them if they want to sleep or sit on their own. I will always ensure that they have clean water, are well fed and comfortable :)
Information Lisa D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know a bit about your pet's personality and quirks! Are they allowed any treats or do they have any dietary restrictions or special needs?
A typical day
An active dog is a happy dog! We'll play and go for a nice walk in the park, where they will enjoy a good sniff around before going home for cuddles.

Availability
I am self employed and work from home so I have plenty of time and flexibility to play with your pup and take them for walks.
