Availability

I am retired. So my weekdays and weekends are available. I can housesit or just visit depending on the location. I have a completely and securely fenced backyard. So I can offer doggy guests safety and worry-free play time. Lots of shade or sunny spots, a small wading pool for water lovers and even a good spot to dig in the dirt. I have no pets of my own at this time. I am a non-smoker and dedicated to providing the best care for beloved pets. I have reliable transportation.

Information Louise P. would like to know about your pet

Feeding schedule and choices, snack preferences, tail-wagging activities the dog just loves. Where the dog sleeps and if he is allowed on furniture or beds, the dogs attitude toward other dogs.

A typical day

I love a good game of fetch....as long as it's the dog doing the fetching. Any outdoor time is my favourite time. On walks, i believe it is the dogs' times. So they are unhurried allowing lots of time for sniffing and replying to pee mail. I am retired and when I have dog daycare guests, I am home with them for the duration of their stay.

Backyard to Barnyard Pet Sitting

Pet care experience

My sister said that if she reincarnates she wants to come back as an animal in my care. I thanked her, promising she would be my favorite. I am comfortable and capable with large barnyard animals to the smallest of household pets. I have been an animal lover and caregiver for my entire life. Now that I am retired, I am thrilled to devote my time to being with animals. I enjoy caring for them in their own home. And I have a secure fenced backyard for doggy guests. I am able to stay with them for added security and attention. I've been a hobby farm owner, worked on a farm, have had the joy of loving many animals. Walks and chores and quiet times are aspects I really enjoy. I feel I have a connection with animals and have a calm spirit that soothes them when needed.

Louise was fantastic. Our babies got to run around in a secure yard and wore themselves right. They were fed and loved like crazy. We will definitely be getting her again. Thank you so much.

Louise was amazing minding our 2 dogs overnight at our home, we had a trip planned for months and a sitter let us down last minute. On short notice Louise cancelled her own social event to help us out! Moving forward she will be our go to sitter, best we have found on Rover to date.

I would always trust Louise with my pets! She truly thinks of animals as part of the family, and I would feel confident that when my dogs are with her they will be treated with love and respect and that I would get lots of updates and pictures :).
