Pet care experience
I am excited to share my experience in walking, playing with, feeding, and caring for a diversity of four-legged friends. I have raised my dog of 10 years since she was a puppy and have cared attentively for all shapes and sizes of furry companions of many friends. In addition, I have co-fostered small kittens born with health complications who needed constant care and a loving home.
Reviews
Louisa was great! She took good care of our baby while we were gone. Our dog is very shy when it comes to new people but Dee warmed up real quickly. I think Dee has a new best friend.
Louisa was an amazing sitter for my 4 pups while I was gone on vacation for a week. By the pictures she sent, I could tell that my pups were very comfortable and happy with her and were getting much love and attention. She sent updates and pictures often so I had a peace of mind that my pups were okay. She is highly recommended.
Louisa is terrific. I really trust her with caring for my cat, who really enjoys her visits, and I know I am leaving him in good hands when I book with her
Another FANTASTIC house sit from Louisa! We are repeat customers and will continue to book with her for all our pet needs! She goes above and beyond to ensure our doggie and house is well cared for.

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I keep a sharp eye on animals under my care and am adept at picking up on behavioral cues that suggest an animal is in need of water, food, loving attention, outside-time, or playtime. I take care to balance the pet's needs with my own as their caretaker, clearly establishing a safe yet fulfilling human-pet relationship.
Information Louisa L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special medical concerns or behavioral issues to look out for so I can plan ahead. Examples include separation anxiety, mobility difficulties, and phobias. I'm great at preparing meals with several components, administering medication on time, and monitoring for heightened stress and anxiety. For house sitting, I typically count one night as roughly dinner time to breakfast the next day, with an accompanying walk at each meal time and quality cuddle time to settle down for bed. I'm happy to provide a mid-day walk or engaging play session as a separate drop-in visit. If you have a specific routine/training you'd like me to maintain while you're away, please let me know and I'll make sure your progress keeps its steam!
A typical day
Dogs are my favorite walking companions. I enjoy strolling with them along waterfront trails and around local parks. I usually keep a ball with me on walks and excursions so that my furry friend can take advantage of any nearby dog parks and off-leash areas that we may discover. Play time keeps your pup or kitty on their toes--if they think they can outsmart me at keep-away, well, they might be right but I'll sure give them a run for it!
