Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency in every home, always adjusting my approach so pets feel secure. I’m very mindful of safety, making sure doors, gates, and harnesses are always secure. I also respect your home by keeping everything clean and just as you left it. You can expect clear communication and regular updates so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.
Information Lori J. would like to know about your pet
I love learning your pet’s routine and personality so I can keep things as familiar and low-stress as possible. Helpful details include feeding schedules, energy level, medications, and any quirks or triggers. I’m happy to follow your routine closely so your pet feels at home while you’re away.
A typical day
Each day is tailored to your pet. Dogs get walks, playtime, and lots of attention while sticking to their routine. Cats get calm, cozy care with playtime if they’re in the mood and plenty of quiet companionship. My goal is always a happy, relaxed pet who feels comfortable and cared for.

Pet care experience
If you want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, I’d love to help 😊 I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up on a farm caring for all kinds of animals, so understanding behavior and routines comes naturally to me. I love working with puppies and kittens and reinforcing good habits in a positive, consistent way. I also have experience with senior pets, including medications and detailed care. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or anxious, I take the time to adjust to what helps them feel most at ease. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep things calm and familiar. You’ll always get thoughtful updates and photos, so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality ❤️ 🐾

Reviews
Lori was amazing with my kitten Lando. He warmed up to her super quick and Lori made sure to give him all his meds and play with him too. I would love to have her care for my kitten again! 5/5 stars!
Absolutely would utilize her services again. What a sweetheart and very attentive. I trust Lori completely to take care of our pets!
Lori J. was helping us by providing daily walks for our standard poodle, Hermione, while we were on vacation, having left her with the grandparents who find it difficult to provide exercise for Hermione. She is a really nice person and loves dogs and cats. She has experience, so she knows how to maintain discipline with the animal on the walk; she reads its needs and quirks very well. The very next day after her morning and evening walk with Lori, Hermione would wait impatiently for her to arrive (as promised) and expressed her happiness to see Lori as dogs do - tail wagging happily and mouth open in excitement. We highly recommend Lori as a reliable, cheerful and warm-hearted person who really seems to love her work.
Lori is fantastic!!!
