Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. During walks, dogs are kept securely leashed at all times, and I choose safe, controlled routes based on your dog’s needs and energy level. For added safety, I do not take dogs to off-leash dog parks, which helps avoid unpredictable situations and ensures a more calm, structured experience. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine closely—including feeding, water, medications (if needed), and any specific instructions you provide. I take care to keep doors secure, monitor your pet’s behavior, and ensure they are safe and comfortable before leaving. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language and comfort level, adjusting my approach to reduce stress and build trust—especially for shy or more sensitive pets. You can expect reliable communication and updates, so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away. My goal is to provide a calm, controlled, and dependable environment so your pet feels secure and cared for at all times.
Information Lisa H. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best and safest care possible, I like to learn a bit about your pet’s routine and behavior ahead of time. Helpful information includes: • Temperament (friendly, shy, nervous, reactive, etc.) • Comfort level with new people, dogs, or environments • Any triggers or sensitivities (sounds, other animals, handling, etc.) • Feeding schedule and dietary instructions • Medications, including dosage and timing (if applicable) • Usual routine for walks, bathroom breaks, or litter care • Leash behavior and energy level (for dogs) • Any training cues or commands you’re currently working on The more I know, the better I can keep your pet comfortable, safe, and consistent with their normal routine. I’m always happy to follow detailed instructions—consistency is key to keeping your pet happy and stress-free.
A typical day
Each visit is tailored to your pet’s routine, with a focus on keeping things consistent, engaging, and stress-free while you’re away. For dog walks, I provide structured, safe walks suited to your dog’s energy level, with time for exercise, sniffing, and reinforcing calm leash behavior. During drop-in visits, I typically include: • Feeding and fresh water • Bathroom breaks or litter care • Playtime, enrichment, or a walk (if requested) • Reinforcing routines and positive behaviors • Plenty of attention and check-ins based on your pet’s comfort level For cats and more relaxed pets, I adjust the visit to include gentle interaction, play, or simply calm companionship—whatever helps them feel most comfortable. My goal is to make each visit feel familiar and positive, so your pet stays happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you're away. I adapt each visit to your pet’s personality—whether they need exercise and structure or a calmer, more relaxed approach.

Skilled, Reliable Pet Care
Pet care experience
Looking for more than just a sitter? I provide calm, structured care that keeps your pet happy while reinforcing good habits and routines. Every visit supports your pet’s routine, safety, and positive behavior. With over 14 years of experience raising rescue dogs and a basic dog training certification, I bring an extra level of awareness to every walk and drop-in. I don’t just supervise—I actively help maintain the structure and consistency your pet is used to at home. I’m especially a great fit for puppies, high-energy dogs, or pets who benefit from clear boundaries and routine, but I also work comfortably with shy or more reserved cats and dogs. During visits and walks, I focus on: • Reinforcing positive behaviors (loose-leash walking, calm greetings) • Maintaining your pet’s routine and expectations • Providing engaging play and mental stimulation • Keeping walks controlled, safe, and stress-free • Sending thoughtful updates so you always feel at ease Many clients choose me because they want someone who can provide both care and structure, so their pet stays on track even while they’re away. I adapt to each pet’s personality—whether they need patience and reassurance or a bit more guidance and direction. Meet & Greets are required before the first booking to ensure the best fit for everyone. Note: Requests outside my service area may include a small mileage fee, discussed prior to confirmation.
Reviews
Lisa is wonderful! She is reliable and our mini-schnauzer Ellie loves her. Lisa communicates with us through the app and provides updates and photos. We love knowing Ellie is in good hands when we are away. Highly recommend!!!
We are super lucky to have found Lisa! She helped us out with our dog Ellie on very short notice and saved us from a stressful situation. Lisa was fantastic with Ellie (who loved her!) and we will definitely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend :) Thank you Lisa!
Lisa! Thank you so much for taking care of Puddles. It was our first time leaving her and you were awesome. Your friendly personality made it easy for us to get to know you and you were consistent. Diligent, on time, natural with pets, very loving. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!
You did an excellent job with the drop in. I would definitely recommend you to others need services. Thank you! I’ll be in contact for future needs.
