Safety, trust & environment
Safety and Trust As a registered nurse and board-certified health and wellness nurse coach, I bring professional-level observation skills to identify subtle changes in pet behavior or health that others might miss. I truly enjoy caring for other living beings here on Earth. My medical background ensures I can respond appropriately to emergencies, administer medications precisely, and follow detailed care instructions. I understand the importance of consistent routines and environments for pet wellbeing, maintaining your home's security protocols exactly as instructed. Maintaining a Healthy Environment I approach home care with the same attention to detail I bring to healthcare, ensuring spaces remain clean, organized, and exactly as you left them. My professional training has instilled habits of thoroughness and accountability that translate perfectly to caring for your home. I respect the sanctity of your personal space, treating your home with the same care and consideration I would my own. Physical Wellbeing for Pets I create customized exercise routines based on your pet's specific breed, age, health status, and energy level. My healthcare background allows me to monitor physical indicators of wellness during activities and adapt accordingly. I understand the vital connection between physical activity and overall health, ensuring your pets receive appropriate stimulation. Emotional and Behavioral Support I recognize that pets experience emotions similar to humans and require stability, especially when their owners are away. My holistic approach includes providing lots of love, comfort, companionship, and consistent positive reinforcement. I'm skilled at interpreting pet body language and behavioral cues, adjusting my approach to meet their individual needs. Tailored Care Approach Just as I develop personalized wellness plans for patients, I will learn your pet's preferences, routines to provide truly customized care. I can "keep you in the loop" and share pictures and/or as much as you would like while you're away, to provide you peace of mind. My holistic philosophy means I pay attention to nutrition, hydration, exercise, rest, and emotional wellbeing—the complete picture of pet health!
Information Lise A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know anything specific about your pet beforehand, so I can accommodate them with their preferences and sweet personalities. I honor every animal's uniqueness.
A typical day
I tailor activities to each pet's age, energy level, and preferences - some dogs might prefer a leisurely sniff-walk while others want intense fetch sessions, and some cats are playful adventurers while others prefer quieter enrichment. For dogs: Daily walks exploring local trails and parks where they can experience new sights and smells, playing fetch or frisbee for physical exercise, setting up scavenger hunts where they search for hidden treats around the yard or house, practicing basic training commands with positive reinforcement to keep their minds sharp, and rotating different puzzle toys to challenge their problem-solving skills. For cats: Interactive play sessions with wand toys and laser pointers to satisfy their hunting instincts, hiding treats around the house for them to discover, creating obstacle courses with boxes and tunnels for climbing and exploration, rotating puzzle feeders to make mealtimes mentally stimulating, and dedicating time for gentle play or brushing sessions depending on their personality. I'm big into nature walks; they're so healthy and grounding for dogs and humans alike!

Reviews
This was our second booking with Lise to care for our Maine coon cat. Her care for Chico and our home was again exceptional and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. She sent photos and updates daily, so we could see that Chico was relaxed and happy, and went above and beyond in leaving the house as clean as she found it, even washing all the bedding. Thank you, Lise!
Lise was so great! She loved on the fur babies while we were gone for a week. We enjoyed her daily photos. House was well kept and clean. Can’t recommend enough.
Lise took excellent care of our big coon cat while we were away. She checked in with us daily, sent photos, and clearly spent a great deal of time interacting with him. Knowing he was being well cared-for was very reassuring and we couldn't have been happier on our return. She was also very respectful of our home and left it immaculate. We've already booked Lise for a week-long stay next month, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Lise was absolutely wonderful! Very communicative and gave our pup so much love and attention I think he is sad she’s gone. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting. She kept the house very clean and was so flexible when our flight was delayed. She also sent us so many amazing pictures! We definitely look forward to working with her again!
