Loving Caring Animal Rescuer

Pet care experience

Animal lover and rescuer will take great care of your dog - as well as if my own. I believe in the study regarding kenneling of dogs, that it causes depression so you are making the right decision not to remove your pet from their home for care while you are out of town. Walks, playing, car rides or whatever your animal is used to doing when you are there. I will give them the love and attention they crave and need especially when you are not there. I am mature, experienced and have excellent references. I have other clients other than on Rover.com. I currently volunteer with Pooch Savers Rescue as well as transport for Legacy Humane Society and Saving Pyrs In Need. I have previously volunteered with Operation Kindness and DFW Cocker Spaniel Rescue. I have transported over 50,00 miles the last 5 years and helped rescue over 2520 dogs. Why I love dog sitting I have loved animals, especially dogs all my life. Lucky to have several pets while growing up. Began transporting and rescuing ten (10) years ago to be able to be in a position to make a difference in many dogs lives. I have volunteered with City of Plano Animal Shelter, DFW Cocker Spaniel Rescue, DASH (Dallas Australian Shepherd and Herding Group Rescue) and several people that rescue abandoned or chained dogs using their own funds. My experience administering medication I am very comfortable administering medication and use peanut butter, cheese or Pill Pockets which most animals love. I am flexible and have a job that allows me to work on my own. I love dogs and felt this was a way for me to see more dogs. I do not care for pets in my own home. I am not able to care for dogs in my home at this time, maybe a later time.

Louann is great! She took great care of our dog and was a great communicator with checking in to let us know all was good. You can tell she really cares about dogs!

LouAnn was great at communicating how our pup was doing, throughout the time we were gone. She stayed at our house, & even stripped the bed before leaving. Everything was neat & in order after her stay.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very careful with animals. I will always do what is best for your pet and make sure we have a good experience. I will never put your dog or myself in a safety concern.

Information Louann S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you dog has any needs or special requests that I can help with. I am willing to go the extra mile for your pet.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog Each animal is different. Some want to play, others just want to be petted while still others just chill. I get to know each of your family members so that I know exactly their needs. Extra house-sitting services I am willing to make your home have that "lived in" or "we are at home" to lower the chances of a possible break-in. I will do whatever needs to be done to give you peace of mind while you are away. I do not keep other dogs at my home as I have tried this but realized quickly that dogs are far more comfortable and feel safer if they are in their own environment instead of a different place. I prefer not to bring a dog into my home for several reasons, one being that most dogs are comfortable in their own home that they are used to and I have dogs that seem to be territorial and possessive of me and their toys. lol
