Why hello there!
I'm Lou, and I'm a British Australian living in Richmond. I've lived in London for 13 years. I know all the parks quite well from exploring over the years. I love all animals, my mother would always say 'She has a great affinity with animals' (thanks Mum).
I currently cat sit (Captain - grey cat in pictures) and dog (Basil) for two different families and stay overnight when required.
I offer overnight and day pet sitting (in their environment), home visits, and walking.
With overnight stays, this is usually a 24-hour period from 7pm-7am (or if you require different hours this can be discussed).
For home visits, the duration is usually up to one hour for up to two pets (this includes feeding, tidying and play).
Dog walking is an hour, sometimes more depending on the needs of you and your dog.
I've house-sat for many a dog and cat in the past, both here and in Australia over the years. I'm happy to look after your pets in your own home should you need to be away from your house as well as wash/feed/walk/hug them. I know our companions love a schedule so I'm happy to stick to it as per your requirements.
I work for a central London university as a Project Manager, and at the moment I'm WFH except Tuesdays, which allows for dog walking services during the day and flexible working hours.
I like to go on long walks and runs, so if you have a dog that needs a lot of exercise, I'm your perfect match. I like to make sure dogs in particular get to stop and take in the air and have a sniff about.
I'm happy to travel for overnight stays with your pet(s) in London. For daily walks and feeds, I can travel to the surrounding areas to Richmond (Sheen, Chiswick etc).
Looking forward to hearing from you and am happy to answer any questions you may have.
Lou.

No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.

Louise was so very conscientious and thoughtful; she came to visit and see everything that was involved in looking after my troop of bunnies(!) and was helpful and flexible around timings and my plans.
Louise gave me an update after every visit to let me know how everyone was doing which was really appreciated too : )
