I have been a dog walker/cat care volunteer & supporter of local animal adoption centers recently for 8+ years taking a hiatus for Covid changes. Getting back into animal sitting with friends prior to finding my own next cat. Reiki energy practitioner offering calming, loving energy to your pets in client's home.
Reviews
Lori was great with our sweet pup. Lots of walks and cuddles made her week go well. Thx
Lori took amazing care of my girl Ember while I was gone!
Lori did a wonderful job petsitting my cat and 2 dogs for 4 days. She gave the dogs their meds, exercise, and regular potty breaks. She communicated updates with photos each day, which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely call on her again.
We loved Lori watching over us! - yes that's what my dogs whispered on my ear when I returned. She was very attentive with them, gentle as it can be and honestly I didn't even know I had a house guest. We will be reaching out to her in the future, that's for sure!

I am currently available for playing, jog/walking, visiting, feeding to provide regular care in the cat/dog(s)' home timely and easily. I have administered medicine for dogs or cats. I take dogs to offleash parks or to local trails or hikes depending on the comfort level of pets and/or parents. Have cared for variety sizes of dogs (St Bernards to boxers to Chihuahuas); from so called "bully" breed mixes and have a lot of experience with variety of cats. Also have done bird, reptile care. I will water plants or bring in deliveries/packages/mail to keep home neat/tidy, appear occupied and maintain safety to the home.
Information Lori C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special circumstances or needs or behaviors that I can account for (separation anxiety, allergies, daily medicines required, habits, and the like).
A typical day
I enjoy stimulating animals physically & mentally allowing dogs to check out smells in the neighborhood & local parks and playing as temperament allows. Cats are encouraged to roam their indoor cat highways or simply play with toys for exercise. Patience with separation or shy temperaments. Offer abundance of love & petting depending on comfort level of each animal while they are in my care.
Services
Lori can watch in your home
Availability
I currently have a variable office work schedule. If overnights required need them in pet animal's home for animal comfort. Want to know animals' regular routine & follow what they want to do: know bedtimes, bed practices, medications, play, exercise and food habits. If dogs usually go to park or enjoys walking, fetching, hiking or if they are more couch potatoes, I want to know. If there are multiple animals in same residence, I want to know if they eat in separate areas, if they get along well usually or not. If animals have special or favorite toys and habits to their day I'd like to know that during meet/greet.
