Care for Dogs of All Personalities
What sets me apart is my calm, patient nature and my ability to connect with dogs of all personalities and backgrounds. Dogs tend to feel comfortable around me quickly, and I’ve had a lot of success building trust with shy, anxious, and reactive dogs. I have firsthand experience rescuing and rehabilitating dogs who came from difficult situations. Through consistency, positive reinforcement, and patience, I’ve helped fearful and reactive dogs grow into confident, well-behaved companions. Because of this experience, I am comfortable working with dogs who may need a little extra understanding, structure, or support. Whether your dog is energetic, nervous, senior, or simply needs a reliable routine, I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can feel secure. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs and personality, ensuring they receive the care, exercise, and affection that helps them thrive. My goal is always for both pets and their owners to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while they’re in my hands.

Safety, trust & environment
My top priority is creating a safe, calm, and structured environment where each pet feels secure and cared for. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and ensure dogs are always supervised and never placed in unsafe situations. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals, especially with anxious or reactive dogs, and adjust my approach accordingly to keep them comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to maintain the dog’s normal routine as much as possible. I prioritize consistency with feeding, walking schedules, and training cues so pets feel secure even while their owners are away. My experience working with rescue and reactive dogs has taught me the importance of patience, calm energy, and clear boundaries. I aim to be a steady, reassuring presence so pets feel safe, understood, and cared for at all times.
Ratings and reviews
I highly recommend Loraine as a pet caregiver. She took wonderful care of my cat, Narnia, while I was away. Loraine was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about Narnia’s comfort and well-being. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cat was in such capable and caring hands. I would gladly trust her to care for Narnia again in the future.

Schedule
Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure dogs receive plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. I understand how important consistency is for dogs, especially those who are anxious, reactive, or adjusting to a new environment. I make it a priority to maintain their usual routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog loves adventure, playtime, or simply relaxing with a calm companion, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs.
