Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable & flexible dog care
I am an animal lover who has over 15 years of experience taking care of dogs. I rescued an ex racing Greyhound in 2015, her name was Frankie, she lived with me for almost 9 happy years before we sadly lost her to old age and failing health. I love spending time with dogs and have regularly walked and looked after different breeds including; Golden Retriever, Cockapoo, Staffie, Terrier, Lab/Collie cross, Pug, Bedlington Whippet and French Bulldog. I am very comfortable with any size and breed of dog. I'm a keen walker and love being outdoors, which is why dog-care suits me well!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will follow your instructions carefully to ensure your dog is safe and happy. They will get plenty of exercise, cuddles & playtime, depending on their energy levels! For very active dogs I can offer days out, where they will be taken on extended walks (on their lead) out in beautiful locations such as the South Lakes, Yorkshire Dales & Peak District. My car has everything to keep them safe on journeys, I have a hammock for the back seats, a dog car seat, seatbelt attachment and a safety partition.
Ratings and reviews
Reggie had the best time with Louise! thank you so much for helping out last minute. We did a meet & greet first which was great, we knew he would be in safe hands! Will definitely be booking again 😄
Louise was very responsive to our request and attended a pre-meet. It was very reassuring to have Louise take care of our dog. Our dog was very content in Louise’s care. We’ve noticed she’s much less anxious when we arrive home compared to when we have to go out shopping etc and she’s left on her own for a couple of hours. So glad we found Louise it’s been reassuring knowing our dog has been looked after. Thanks again
Louise took wonderful care of our two sproodles, Ralph and Hugo, while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was reliable, friendly, and clearly very experienced with dogs. Ralph and Hugo both have plenty of energy and their own little quirks, but Louise handled them brilliantly. She made sure they got plenty of exercise, attention, and affection, and it was obvious they were completely comfortable and happy in her care. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two very content, well-looked-after dogs, and it was clear they’d had a great time. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Louise to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker, and we’ll definitely be asking her again in the future.
Willow has once again had a fantastic time with Louise 🩷 She loves going to see Louise and gets so excited when we tell her where she is going. Thank you once again 🩷
Louise has been an absolute godsend during a period of quite intense health-related constraints. She has been so responsive, communicative, and has such clear affection for dogs. Frida (🐶) is absolutely besotted, and spending time with Louise’s child has made her even more comfortable with children.
After moving to a new area, Louise has been a dream to find for our whippet. She has been great at getting to know duke, being very in tune to his nature and really responsive to messages too.

Schedule
I am currently available during the week for dog walking, drop-in visits & dog sitting/daycare within the owner's home. I have a young daughter who absolutely loves dogs, however she's currently just a little bit too small for us to board or provide daycare to unfamiliar dogs in our home. Occasionally I am available at weekends as well - so please do get in touch if you need weekend help too!
Prices include all fees.
