Responsible Pet-Loving Professional

I am a female accounting professional by day, pet sitter by night! I'm in the process of obtaining my MBA online from Penn State University. I grew up with dogs, birds, fish, guinea pigs and rabbits, and I am comfortable caring for all types of pets. I currently share my home with a tuxedo cat. I live in Penderbrook, Fair Oaks, and I am available for pets in Northern Fairfax County (Springfield, Burke, Fairfax, Chantilly, Centerville, Clifton). I have a lifetime of experience with all types of pets, although I am not completely comfortable with reptiles and spiders but I'm willing to learn. I am available most nights and weekends, and will gladly perform extra services (dispensing medication, watering plants, etc.). I will tailor walks, visits and feedings to your preferred schedule. References are available upon request.

Always happy to have Lorene sit with my boys as she gives plenty of love and attention, to the point they don’t even miss us when we’re gone. Would highly recommend for snuggles and comfortable walks.

We asked Lorene to check in on our boys so we could go to a Caps game. She was great; gave them a good walk and administered their eye drops. Lorene always gives us a report card and some cute pictures. I would highly recommend!!

I love having Lorene take care of our fur babies. She gives us a daily report along with pictures of the boys to keep us informed on the stay. Lorene follows directions for feeding and medication and has been available to receive any mail or packages that may come in. I highly recommend Lorene for your needs and don’t delay on requesting her services; she is in high demand.

I am so appreciative of having Lorene as my dog sitter for our recent vacation. She kept us updated with a daily report, added some cute pictures, and learned more of the dogs’ quirks making it a great fit. We knew we could travel without any worries because she took great care of my boys. They loved hanging out with her and Cash even took on the role of “work supervisor”. Would highly recommend Lorene for any of your dog needs.
