As a young girl, Hewitt was attracted to music which led to her first encounters with the entertainment industry. At the age of three, she sang "The Greatest Love of All" at a livestock show. Just a year after that, at a restaurant-dance hall, she entertained an audience with her version of "Help Me Make It Through the Night". By the time she was five, Hewitt already had tap dancing and ballet in her portfolio. At nine, she became a member of the Texas Show Team (which ... toured in the Soviet Union). At the age of ten, at the suggestion of talent scouts, she moved to Los Angeles, California, with her mother to pursue a career in both acting and singing.
After moving to Los Angeles, Hewitt was in more than twenty television commercials. Her first break came as a child actor on the Disney Channel variety show Kids Incorporated (1989–1991). Hewitt became a young star after getting the role of Sarah Reeves on the Fox Television show Party of Five (1995–1999). She joined the cast during its second season.
After moving to Los Angeles, Hewitt appeared in more than twenty television commercials. Her first break came as a child actor on the Disney Channel variety show Kids Incorporated (1989 – 1991), where she was credited as just Love Hewitt. During this time she danced in and sang all the songs for a live action video called "Dance! Workout With Barbie" released by Buena Vista.

Love dished Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve to homeless people at the Los Angeles Mission on Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles.
Hewitt was almost cast as Juliet in "Romeo + Juliet" (1996), but at the last moment she lost the part to Claire Danes because the director felt she wasn't "modern" enough. She auditioned for the role of Tricia Jones in "Mallrats" (1995).
