Your Dog Will Love Our Crew

Hello there! My name is Loretto, I have two kids (9&11) and we had a dog but she now lives with my ex. We are really missing having dogs around. For the past 13 years, I have raised and taken care of two dogs, both energetic but sweet Pitbull mixes. Sadly, one of them passed a couple years ago and the other one we share; she visits us on occasion. I've also cared for dogs belonging to family and friends on a few occasions. I truly love spending time with dogs, as do my children. My daughter often talks about being able to communicate with dogs and feel their energy. We are a dog loving family and you can rest assured that your pup will get lots of love, snuggles, and playtime. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your pup happy. I look forward to welcoming and caring for your fur baby.

It was our first time to have Loretto sit for our high-maintenance frenchie, Jack. We had a meet and greet beforehand and we liked her. She is very honest and caring. She and her family treated our Jack as their family dog! Also she has great sense of adjusting to his needs, and routine changes as needed. When we picked him up, he didn’t even want to go home with us! So, that really shows how Loretto gave a safe and loving stay to him. Thank you for your great care of Jack! We totally recommend Loretto!!

Outstanding sitter. Our dogs loved her and her kids so much that we booked her again for another trip. Highly recommend! She is attentive and treated my dogs as if they were their own. Will book again

Loretto was wonderful with Roomba. She kept me updated and kept Roomba busy playing tug, going on walks, and taking him for car rides. Would absolutely recommend her for your fur baby.

Loretto was great!! She was sure to take down any additional notes that would keep Maxxwell on his routine. She sent videos of him walking and was very transparent with plans and expectations; terrific communicator!!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced backyard for your dog to freely use and run around in. When we are not home, we prefer to leave the pup in a crate. Your dog won't ever be in a crate for longer than a couple hours. We allow dogs on our couch and bed unless you tells us otherwise.

A typical day

On a week day, we will go on a morning walk to drop off the kids at the bus stop. Then, your pup will get some time to relax and maybe take a nap nearby while I work. We will take breaks throughout the day in the backyard while we wait for the kids to get home. In the afternoon, your pup will have a great time playing around with the kiddos and we usually go on a walk after dinner. If your pup is allowed on the bed, my kids will take turns sleeping with your dog and snuggling up. On the weekend, the day will be similar but we may add some adventure trips like going to the dog park, if your dog is used to that and allowed, or going on a walk at the park. You tell me what your dog enjoys to do and we can fit it in!

It is very important that your dog gets along with young kids. I prefer dogs that are crate trained on the occasion that we need to leave home for a couple hours. I am not trained to handle dogs with special needs and not comfortable doing so. Any special requests please reach out before booking.
