Welcome to my intuitive animal communication service. As an animal lover and a Buddhist, I believe all beings are sentient beings, and deserve happiness equally. I tarot read for animals because I want us to better understand who they are and what their needs are.
I have been an aTarot Reader for 35 years and I work with the Tarot as my main communication tool to understand your pets. My approach is compassion based, and my messages are both gentle and informative. Booking a session with me, can help you to better understand the needs of your pet and what could improve their overall happiness.
If you are reading this, I am guessing that you have experienced frustration when you have not been able to understand what your furry friend wants to tell you. I am here to help with you with that, so you can tune in with them, and get to know them even better. If you want to get straight in touch with me, I am easily contactable, and I am happy to answer your enquiries. Here’s a link to my bookings page and contact form.
Translating an animals feelings
Animals feelings, and particularly dogs, are easy for me to tune into. I work with Tarot to help translate their feelings from the images that are chosen. I find animals communicate messages in a much simpler way than we do, and their feelings and needs are very pure, where as humans are complex.
I discovered I could read for animals when we got our first rescue cat. I wanted to know what she needed most from us, and what would make her feel safe. I had a lightbulb moment when I realised that my intuitive gifts could work with our new cat, and that the cards can be used to translate multiple levels of messages.
The cards did indeed describe to me how she was feeling and what she needed from us and for herself. I found this to be an amazing and reliable way to communicate with her.
The tarot symbols described her feelings and experiences clearly. This is on all emotional, mental and energetic levels. Through following my intuition and the advice of the cards, she settled in with me much more easily.

I am located in the UK and I read for clients all over the world. I mostly provide my services online, via zoom. I offer 30 mins and 60 mins sessions, in which we look at whatever you’d like to bring to the reading. I also have a full menu of questions you can ask, if you are not sure. You can book me by using the contact form at the bottom of this page. My email is readingswithlouise@gmail.com, if you prefer to reach out this way. You can read about what happens in a session, further down in the FAQs.

Tarot Reading for Dogs
I love my work with Dogs because they are so childlike. I would say that they communicate to the level of a three year old child. Reading for a puppy is like being on all the rides in Disneyland, at once, they can be so joyful. I have however, met wise old souls with four paws, and I can feel when a dog is more mature and in tune with their humans mentality. In these meetings, I respect their wisdom and what they can teach me.
Dogs just want you to love them and to fully enjoy their love. They are not complicated. It is humans not taking care of them, that make a dog complicated. Don’t ever doubt your dog’s devotion and love, you really are their whole world. Please remember this.

Tarot reading for Cats
Cats really do seem to be from other planets, and I mean that in the best way. I find working with felines a unique experience. They communicate differently to dogs. I honestly can say, it is hard to describe what happens when I read for a cat. They are mystical and they choose who they want to talk to and hang out with! Nonetheless, I can still give messages from them,
just more on their terms.

Goodwoof Dog Festival 2023

Over 14,000 people attended. It was amazing and I was in demand! Don’t miss Goodwoof 2024, in May, if you are in the UK.
FAQs
Q: What animals do you work with?
A: It depends who books me, but generally dogs, cats and small animals find me most often.
Q: Are you a dog trainer or animal behaviorist?
A: I am not. I am an Intuitive and a sensitive, those are my skills. Above all, I am an animal lover and I care about their happiness and wellbeing. That is why I offer this service.
Q: What kind of animal communication do people come to you for?
A: I get consultations for a variety of reasons. It is not always a negative reason. People want to know if their animal is happy, and if their needs are being met. Can they do anything more for them? People can get confused by behaviours that are hard to understand. I provide the clarity and insights into why and what could help. Unbreakable habits and anxiety are also issues that need support. Clients want to know how their pet feels when they are left alone. I get booked for puppy sessions, to understand their needs. Death can have an impact too, and people want to know if that affects the animal in question. My sessions are particularly helpful for rescue animals. If the shelter does not know the animal’s full history, my cards can see into that. This often explains nervous behaviours.
Q: What happens in a session?
A: A session takes place usually online. I will ask you what issues you want to get information about and what your relationship with them is like. We can look at exercise needs, their diet, their outdoor and indoor environments and their wellbeing. I will need to see your pet so I can tune in. They do not need to be present for the whole time. I then work with the Tarot cards to tune in to your pet’s experiences. I find that animals are open and responsive when they can feel our care and we are focusing on their needs. Towards the end of the session, I review the information that has come out to make sure it is understood and you know how to use it.
Below is a sample of questions from the menu I have created:
- Do you like your environment?
- Are you happy?
- What do you not like so much about your environment?
- What are you sensitive to that makes you less happy, nervous, scared?
- Do you feel you get out enough and get enough exercise?
- Do you like the places you get taken to?
- What would you like more of?
- Do you feel mentally/physically stimulated enough?
Q: Is one session enough?
A: It depends on the situation. If there are personality issues, and they are a more needy animal, one session will not change that. It will help you to understand them better though, and what approaches would work best for them. Often, it is about the human’s expectations and needs that is the real problem. I am quite open about that, if I see it. The important point is that the animal has expressed how it feels and what it needs to feel better.
Q: What will I come away with?
A: You will come away with detailed advice, which I record for you, letting you know how your animal feels, what they want you to know, and the cause of the problems they are experiencing. By the end of the session, I believe you will know your pet better and will have tools to communicate with them better and fulfill any needs you do not know about.
Health Concerns

When our pets become sick, this can be stressful and upsetting. A reading can help to find the reason for your pets situation. Quite often, unexplained and sudden health issues have an emotional basis. Although I can sometimes feel into the reasons and causes of a health situation, I am not an expert, so please always seek a Vets advice before or afterwards.
Behaviours and Habits

These are some of the common behaviour issues I can look into:
Rescue Animals
Having a session can be particularly valuable if your animal is a rescue. We can explore their background and how their life was before you met each other. The cards can reveal what they experienced before you came into their life, and how they might still be affected. I can give advice based on what needs to be considered in your relationship from those experiences. Sometimes pets had previous owners who you can not talk to. I can tune in to what their day to day life was like with them, and explore if they had any particular routines that they might miss having.

Testimonials
I am so fortunate to connect so many special animals and their people. Here are some reviews from my clients of their experiences of my service.

Jennifer and Sparkle the Dog, Oregon, USA.
“Thank you, Louise, for your helpful Tarot reading, your genuine presence, and all the beneficial information you shared! I appreciated learning insights and recommendations to fine tune some of Sparkle’s needs and also add new activities for him to experience even more joy in his life”!
Jennifer Bowers

Margot and Betty the Dog, Marin, CA, USA
“ Betty and I had an incredible time with Louise. She really seemed to understand my dog from a soul perspective and see past her cuteness and confirm what I had always felt to be true. Her warmth and ability to express Betty’s feelings impressed me. Her services are genuinely helpful. I would highly recommend her to anyone who has a spiritual connection to their Pet”.

Naomi and Diesel the Dog, CO,USA
“I was fortunate to be able to have a reading with the animal communicator and tarot reader Louise Rodd for help with my dog Diesel. I adopted him in the middle of the pandemic from his previous owner who worked far from home, leaving his pet alone for too many hours. Diesel was nine when I got him and has settled in well, but has some unexplainable behaviours that I have been curious about. Also, I wanted to know if he was happy with me and if there was anything that I could do to improve his life.
Louise’s reading was highly beneficial. She was kind and straightforward in her reading and was very reassuring — but she did not hold back from giving suggestions that I was not so happy to hear. For example, she said Diesel would enjoy meat treats or a big bone to gnaw on. I am a vegetarian, and although I feed him a dry food formula with chicken, I do not have any meat in my home and did not consider that as an option. I highly recommend reading with Louise — it will enrich your life with your animal companion.

Julie and Pearl the Cat, CA, USA
I was thrilled to be able to receive a Tarot reading from Louise for my beloved furry-mate, Pearl. It was so reaffirming and fun to hear what Pearl might be feeling and experiencing as we share the world together. It felt like some kind of renewal of our vows to be there for each other, as witnessed by Louise’s reading. Louise is also comprehensive in her scope of inquiry, from talking about the origin story to health to environment to current needs of my furry friend. I really enjoyed this experience and it has me talking to Pearl in a refreshingly updated way. Thank you Louise!!

Kelly and Lily the Dog, UK
Louise guided us through our first pet tarot with my Cavalier King Charles Lily.I have done tarot readings before, but never with my dog, so it was really interesting to explore the space with Lily in mind. I wasn’t sure what to expect but Louise led the session in a lovely way, guiding us gently through. Louise had questions ready to ask on understanding how Lily felt about certain topics and situations but she also encouraged me to bring questions to the session which I wanted to know and learn about how Lily was feeling.
Specifically for me it was about understanding around Lily’s health as she’s been having some back problems so it was interesting to explore some of her feelings and what was coming through in the cards.The reading with Louise helped to give me some reassurance and guidance on Lily in what was coming up for her. If you are looking for some guidance or have any specific questions, then I’d wholly recommend booking with Louise. It was a lovely experience.

Zoe, Trixie and Quill the Dogs, UK
Louise immediately put both dogs and myself at ease and had (prior to the consultation) suggested I consider some questions to ask. This was very useful, but Louise had also come prepared with suggestion questions that I had not thought of, which were also explored and proved most revealing.
As the readings progressed, I felt as though Louise had known my dogs their entire lives. She drew out key aspects of character and how best I can support these. Health issues explored highlighted some very useful, practical ways to improve a medical specific condition and consider underlying confidence bolstering.
By connecting with my dogs in a completely non-invasive way, it was clear that what I know to be their personalities came through and were skillfully interpreted to reveal more subtle information most difficult for a dog to express effectively.
After the readings I feel I have a deeper understanding of my dogs inner emotional needs, their relationship with me and each other and what is important to them. I would recommend Louise’s services wholeheartedly to anyone wishing to develop their relationship and understanding of their dog – which, in an ideal world, would be all dog guardians.

Jay Alper and Boo the Cat, AZ, USA
Louise’s tender intuitive caring and sharing her gift illuminated some inherent blind spots in my thoughts on my cat/human relationship. Louise’s reading inspired simple practical changes to increase our capacity for adaptability and as ways to maintain our strong bond regardless of geographical location. Beyond my main query, I was empowered with information that will only ultimately increase the quality of this beautiful kitten’s life and subsequently have a positive residual impact on my health. Ultimately, I take better care of myself because of Boo and the greatest outcome of the reading is a refined roadmap forward toward optimal health and our enjoyment of life together.
Thank you, Louise. Having Boo’s cards read was a lovely meaningful experience and I’m so grateful. In quite a few ways I feel I understand her more.
