I have a warm heart for cold noses!

Pet care experience

I’ve always had dogs in my life and am used to all kinds; big, small, puppies, reactive or just plain needy. My husband and I learnt most of our skills from our time as doggy foster carers, as well as boarding, walking and dog sitting all around the world. We’ve got lots of tricks and treats up our sleeves to make sure your pup feels totally at home with us, and we’ll send you plenty of updates too. We’ll tailor your dogs stay to their needs and give them lots of love and attention to make sure they don’t miss you too much.

I was very pleased with how happy, Neeve was after her stay with Lou. She was very accommodating to Neeve’s preferred sleeping arrangements :)

Luna had an amazing stay with Lou. Communication was excellent and kept me updated with lots of pics and messages. Will be booking Lou again in future for sure.

Gremlin seemed to have another great time with Lou :) it was his first time overnight there and he has a lot of energy at the moment but sounds like everything went really well. He was very excited when Lou picked him up which was lovely to see. Lou sent me updates and it looked like he had a lot of fun on walks. Hope to book again soon as he seems to love going there and I can relax knowing he is in safe hands. Thanks Lou!

I have a fenced garden so your pup can move around freely, and am also happy for them to have free roam of the house. I live with my husband who is another person to play with and ensures it’s very rare they’ll be alone.

Information Lou S. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know what your dogs likes/dislikes are, if they’re on any medication and if you use particular commands so I can use the same. It would also be helpful to know how your dog got on without you before; did they recall with strangers, need a few extra cuddles when they missed you or anything else other dog boarders picked up. Last but not least - their favourite treat!

A typical day

I have lots of local spots that I frequent depending on the energy levels, behaviour and needs of the dogs so can tailor our walks and time together to whatever suits them best. I also drive so can take your pup further a field if they need lovely long walks and lots of running around (I’m looking at you Collie’s!). At home I have lots of toys to stimulate them throughout the day, as well as some much needed TLC and cuddles. I’m also happy to give them a brush and/or bath after the walks. Your furry friend will be treated like royalty and in very safe hands. It really does brighten my day to have a dog around as we always have such fun together!

I’m currently working part-time, mostly based at home with one or two days in the office which I can move to fit around dog care. We also love going for walks at the weekend so your pup will fit in perfectly!
