Availability
I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule, and I do Rover because I just enjoy being around animals. I make sure I’m never overbooked in any way, so I’ll always be able to give your pet my complete and undivided attention, and I’m around most weekdays and weekends. I’m also really active, I go to the gym or for a run every day, so I love getting outside for long walks or playtime. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a nice stroll, or some extra exercise, I’m always happy to fit it into my routine.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m very clean, respectful, and responsible, and I’ll always follow whatever rules and routines you have for your pets and your home. Safety and comfort come first, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, keeping up with walks, or making sure your pets feel secure and loved while you’re away. I’ve also been a Rover client myself for the past 10 years, booking sitters to take care of my cats, so I know exactly how important it is to feel updated and reassured while you’re gone. You can count on me to keep you in the loop with plenty of updates, photos, and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going.
Information Lulu L. would like to know about your pet
I’m happy to offer shorter drop-in visits at a discounted rate for pets who don’t need the full 30 minutes of care. Just let me know what works best for your pet! Please let me know if your pet has any quirks I should be aware of, like being shy, reactive, aggressive, or a bit of an escape artist (whether from a leash or at home). I’ve worked with pets like this before and I’m comfortable handling them, I just like to know ahead of time so I can be prepared and make sure they stay safe and happy. We can discuss all this and more in the free meet and greet I offer before any bookings! I bring a notepad to every meet and greet to keep track of all the care details. I usually ask for the following information: - Food/water routines - Any toys they play with and what kind of play time they prefer - Litter box/bathroom habits - Home access instructions - Preferred visit times - Where cleaning supplies are kept for messes and general tidying of the home
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I try to tailor my visits to what they enjoy most. Some dogs want a long walk and a game of fetch, while others are happiest taking a slow sniffy stroll around the neighborhood and getting lots of belly rubs afterward. Since I have a young golden retriever myself, I’m very used to active dogs and making sure they get both exercise and attention. For cats, I spend time playing, giving treats (if allowed!), refreshing food and water, scooping litter boxes, and making sure they get some companionship while you’re away. As a lifelong cat owner, I know that some cats are social right away and others need a little time and patience. I always send lots of photos and updates because I’m a pet parent too, and I know how reassuring it is to know your pets are happy and doing well. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for until you get home.

Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for pets pretty much my whole life, and I can’t imagine not being around animals. I’ve had cats for over 12 years now, from living in a college dorm to an apartment to my house today, so I know how to keep them happy in all kinds of environments. Right now, I have three cats (ages 13, 11, and 5, all of them I’ve had as kittens) and a golden retriever puppy I’ve raised since he was 8 weeks old. My pets are all super spoiled and I treat them as if they were my children! My cats have an entire area of my house to themselves, filled with cat trees and cat shelves from floor to ceiling. They also have a custom built outdoor catio for watching the birds and squirrels in my backyard! I also grew up taking care of neighbors’ and friends’ dogs when they were out of town, and my family had a shih tzu, so I’ve worked with both big and small breeds. Over the years, I’ve had all sorts of pets: chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, and more, which has taught me to adapt to lots of different needs and personalities. When I’m not with my own pets, I love volunteering at the Austin Animal Center, where I walk dogs, play with kitties, and help with feeding routines and cleaning. I’m really passionate about animals, and I always make sure they get the attention, care, and love they deserve.
Reviews
Lulu was our first cat sitter and we will always go to her first! She not only made us feel calm that our cat was in good hands but our cat also loved her. She was very communicative, sent tons of updates and photos, and made us feel like we left Nene in the best hands. She is amazing and will be recommending her to everyone!
Lulu took great care of our cats for two weeks while we were away abroad! She took detailed notes when we first had out meet and greet and asked questions to understand us and our cats needs. She communicated very well during the sit - giving us detailed updates on how the cats were doing with lots of photos, It felt great to have regular updates and have someone to help with picking up mail and generally checking on the house. The cats seems to like her too. We will definitely use Lulu again!
Lulu was fabulous! She took the time to ask, clarifying questions to make sure everything was done exactly as requested. She sent lots of photo updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’d absolutely use her services again!
Lulu is fantastic! She takes great care of our little ones. We always come home to a clean home and happy kittens.
