Here to make your pups happy 🤗

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs/cats of all kinds ever since I can remember. Being the one to rely on when loved ones or friends are in need of attentive care for their four legged family member:)

First time using Rover and also leaving our puppy Enzo. Lorena made the process so comforting and easy. She sent picture/video updates every day and kept us informed of what he did daily. She also was super patient as Enzo is only 4 months old and although he has potty training down at home not so much at her place. He also was not used to being around other dogs but Lorena had another dog with her that she slowly got Enzo used to being around during his stay. I would definitely reach out to Lorena again for boarding! Thanks Lorena for keeping our little guy safe and happy! :)

Lorena house sat my rescue, Georgia, who is very wary of strangers for 4 days while I was out of town. She did so well with Georgia and Georgia was almost immediately comfortable with her. Lorena was super communicative and I’m so glad I found her. I would highly recommend!

Second time I've used Lorena in two months! She's great with my temperamental Poodle. Thank you, Lorena!

Safety, trust & environment

I am living in a town home and am more than willing to go to a local field/dog park for the pups (I call even the big ones pups), to have space to run and have fun! If I go to a clients home I will make sure to be outside with the dogs and have some play time with them as well.

Information Lorena B. would like to know about your pet

I do not have a preference or particularly any trouble with most dogs. However, if the dog is special needs or has a history of trauma I must be informed prior to visiting so that I may adapt my approach. For example: there was an adopted wiener pup that I had to be more gentle and less hands on with (such as petting and belly rubs) because he sensitive to new environments and people. Information like this is vital, as I want your pet to be as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

If there is a yard in which I can take the dogs then that is ideal, I like to play games with the dogs in order to keep their minds and bodies stimulated:)
