Pet care experience

Your Doggo's New Bestie!

I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember and always had pets growing up. For the past two years, I’ve been walking and dog sitting for friends and family, caring for dogs of all sizes, from tiny to large babies. I’m also a foster parent with Broward County Animal Care and previously volunteered with Big Dog Ranch Rescue, which has given me experience with pets of all backgrounds and personalities. I don’t discriminate against any breed, I truly believe all animals are precious and pure souls. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, loved, and at home while in my care.

Safety, trust & environment

I only provide care in my clients’ homes, so your pet gets to stay comfortable in their own familiar space. I always follow routines and any instructions, whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, or house rules. My goal is to make sure your dog feels secure, relaxed, and well-cared for the entire time you’re away. Both your home and your baby will always be treated with the utmost care and trust.

Lorena did a great job watching Yogi! I received regular updates and pics, while out of the country and I never had to worry about Yogi once, because he was being well taken care of. Thanks, Lorena! I appreciate you.

Sweetest ever and very mindful of our little one who is difficult as she doesn’t like many people. We will book her again

Lorena was absolutely wonderful with our boys! This was our first time having her stay with them while we were out of the country, and she immediately put our minds at ease with her thorough communication and updates. It was clear right away that the boys were very comfortable with her, which meant so much to us while we were away. Lorena was also incredibly respectful of our home and left everything just as clean as she found it. We really appreciated how dedicated she was to keeping the boys on their normal schedules—even when that meant early mornings! It’s obvious she truly cares and takes her role seriously. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave them and would absolutely trust her again in the future.

Amazing communication, respect for our home, and attentive care for our dog. We are so thankful! When we came home, Teddy was calm, relaxed and not depressed. Our house was clean and well cared for. She went above and beyond with communication to make my anxious dog mom heart calm.

Lorena is THE BEST!!! She’s so thoughtful, punctual, and conscientious. Lorena answered my request in a timely fashion and quickly threw out a time to meet with me and my dog. She showed up on time and was so pleasant and sweet. My dog quickly warmed up to her and I felt confident my dog would be in good hands. Lorena sent many pictures during her stay and I never worried about leaving him. Can’t tell you how much that means to me. When I returned home Lorena had a sweet card with a pug on the front (my pet is a pug) and a picture of Tiger in it. It is evident how much Lorena loves animals and how much she enjoys taking care of them. Can’t say enough about her!?

Lorena was absolutely amazing with my dog. It was my first time leaving her for more than one day and Lorena sent constant updates and photos to make me feel at ease. She took great care of my pup and home and I truly look forward to having here again with my pup. Highly, highly recommend!!

Schedule

I work from home and also attend school online, so I’m pretty much always around and available. Your baby will never be left alone for long, and I love the company! My schedule is super flexible, which makes it easy for me to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day.

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know anything that helps me give them the best experience possible. This includes whether they’re reactive and have any specific triggers, medical conditions, allergies, or if they take any medications. Understanding their routines, comfort items, and what makes them feel safe helps me keep them happy and stress-free.
