Availability
I’m a retired widow and a bit of a homebody—home is truly my happy place. I love to cook, paint, and read. If I’m not in the kitchen experimenting with a new recipe (and occasionally dropping a carrot or two), you’ll probably find me curled up with a good book and a pup beside me, or in my art studio with a paintbrush in hand and a dog at my feet. I start every morning with a walk around the neighborhood and would love to have your dog join me. Occasionally I’ll go to a movie or lunch with friends, and on Sundays I attend church—but otherwise I’m happily at home. Your dog will enjoy a safe, calm, cozy environment with plenty of companionship, attention, and a relaxed daily routine.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe, clean, peaceful, and fun environment where your dog can feel completely at home. I live in the county, surrounded by beautiful, quiet, and peaceful surroundings. My large, fully fenced backyard is perfect for dogs to relax and play safely. The chain-link fence is buried one foot deep and features a snake guard all the way around the yard. Dogs love lounging on the patches of AstroTurf, playing with the tetherball, and splashing in the wading pool. Inside, my home is cozy, welcoming, and fully dog-proofed—a perfect spot for your pup to curl up and rest. Dogs have easy access outside through a large doggy door whenever they want. Since it’s just me at home most of the time, the atmosphere is calm, quiet, and serene, providing a truly peaceful retreat for your furry friend.

Information Loren T. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there any behaviors or special-needs that I should know about. We can certainly go in more detail during our meet and greet.
A typical day
I love morning walks. Doggy can experience new smells, other dogs, other people. It is generally a very good social hour. I also have toys at home - - tug-of-war, a splash pool, large hurdling ball, all sorts of toys. I live very close to a grassed dog park.

Pet care experience
Dogs have been a beloved part of my life for many years. My home has welcomed ten wonderful rescue dogs, giving me extensive hands-on experience with many breeds, personalities, and ages. Our family has included Irish Setters, a St. Bernard and her pup (a St. Bernard/Shepherd mix), three Golden Retrievers, a Springer Spaniel, a Chocolate Lab named Java, and a Chow–Pit Bull mix. Each one was a cherished member of our family. Because I cared for my dogs throughout their lives, I have a great deal of experience with both energetic dogs and gentle seniors. Many of my dogs lived to very old ages and passed peacefully at home, and senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’m attentive to their comfort, routines, mobility changes, and medication needs. I also cared for two dogs with seizure disorders, which taught me the importance of calm observation and on-time medication. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure each dog feels safe and well cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. When your dog is with me, they will be treated with the same kindness, patience, and loving attention that I gave my own.
Reviews
Loren was wonderful to work with and Baloo looked like he had so much fun in the daily updates! We will be utilizing Loren for pet sitting again in the future.
Loren was fantastic! She was very accommodating and patient, and wrote beautiful check-ins to help us feel comfortable while away from our pups! One of our pooches was not the best-behaved and Loren was very calm and reassuring.
Loren was amazing and put some of my anxiety at ease with our high energy aussie. She sent daily recaps and pictures of our dogs. It looked like they had a wonderful time and were so happy/tired when picked up. She communicates quickly with any questions/concerns. Would love to have our dogs stay with her again!
Loren talks so lovingly of her pets thru the years that I know she will be a wonderful pet sitter. It has been fun to watch her excitement in setting up her yard with pet toys and safety features in preparation for her new pet sitting business. She has made sure her yard is a safe space and a 'comfortable and fun space' for pets to be while waiting for their owners to return. Linda V
