Pet care experience
Flexible dog lover - 15% to charity
Hi, I’m Louise, an experienced dog lover offering reliable, kind-hearted dog walking, in-home visits and boarding across West and North London. I’ve grown up with dogs and have spent the last 10 years regularly caring for dogs belonging to friends and family, from playful pups to gentle seniors. These experiences have taught me how to read dog behaviour, stay calm in all situations and treat every dog with care and respect. I work primarily from home and set my own hours, which means I’m very flexible and can fit around your schedule, whether you need a daily walker, occasional visits, or last-minute support. I’ve completed a certified pet first aid course, I’m fully insured through Pet Business Insurance, and I am DBS-checked. After a cancer diagnosis in 2024, I wanted to spend my spare time in a more meaningful way. That’s why I donate 15 percent of my profits to Medical Detection Dogs, a charity training dogs to detect cancer and other serious illnesses. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love the idea of tiny doctor dogs. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog soon.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Louise was great with our dog, giving her lots of attention and playtime, and giving us plenty of updates so we weren’t worrying about how it was going. I think our dog had a great time!
Sadie had a marvelous time with Louise. She was great at communicating and coordinating. We really appreciate her looking after Sadie! ❤️
Louise was kind enough to look after our puppy, Luna, at short notice, and we were so grateful. Luna had a wonderful time staying with her and loved being back in the garden again! Louise is warm, caring, and clearly loves dogs. We’d be very happy to leave Luna with her again. Thank you, Louise!
Really good communicator, professional and our dog was very happy with Louise!
Louise watched Sadie for the evening while we out, I could tell Sadie had a lovely time. Louise was easy to reach, communicative, and kind. We absolutely will reach out again for other dog-sitting/boarding. Thank you so much!
Louise is great with our mini dachshund puppy and we’re confident she’s well looked after with Louise. Louise is very responsive and flexible which is much appreciated!

Schedule
I work primarily from home and set my own hours, so I have plenty of flexibility around your schedule. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or occasional evening visits, I can usually adapt to what works best for you and your dog. I only take on a manageable number of clients so that each pet gets my full attention.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When walking or visiting pets in their own home, I follow any instructions carefully and make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe in familiar surroundings. I take time to build trust and always approach animals gently and calmly. I’m also certified in pet first aid and fully insured. If your dog is staying with me, they’ll be in a calm, tidy garden flat with direct access to a big fenced garden and no other pets or distractions. I live very close to big parks and quiet green spaces, so there are lovely walking routes right outside my door. Safety is always my top priority, from using secure leads and harnesses to never leaving pets unsupervised outdoors.
A typical day
Each day is tailored to the pet’s needs, but walks are always a highlight. I love taking dogs to local parks or letting them run around in the big fenced garden, which they can access directly from my garden flat. Depending on the dog’s energy level and temperament, we’ll either enjoy a peaceful stroll or a more active session with games and play.
