Who runs Cruella's Dog Walking?

My name is Lisa and I took the big leap to run my own business starting in 2026.

Dogs have always been my greatest passion and something I have lived with for many years. The first dog in my family was in 2007 when we brought home a male Lagotto Romagnolo.

I studied animal care & dogs at upper secondary school and graduated in 2014. I continued with further education afterwards – including customer service training – to develop and broaden skills I felt would be valuable in my profession.

In 2017 I took a temporary position at a dog daycare in Gothenburg, which quickly turned into a permanent role where I worked until 2026. During those years I continued to expand my knowledge and experience, and took on senior roles including operations supervisor and operations manager.

I have my own little dog named Cruella, a Chinese Crested Powderpuff that I brought home in September 2022. We train in a variety of ways including nose work, weight pull and everyday exercises. She's a quirky girl who brightens my daily life and keeps teaching me new things about dogs! 🐶

After working in dog daycare for several years I want to try my wings and run dog walking from home, where I can offer dogs who perhaps can't handle daycare a safe, trusted presence that gives them a walk during the day to take care of their needs while their owner is at work.
