Lori did an awesome job with my pets. She really cared about them and took very good care of them. Will definitely use her in the future. Did not worry at all about my pets when I was gone. My Maggie dog has special food, and she made sure she had it with her probiotics She walked them for me. She sent me pictures and videos of my Maggie and Penny. I was very happy with her service.

My friend had a medical emergency that put her in the hospital leaving her without care for her fur baby Candy. Lori responded immediately and took our booking on a busy holiday weekend. She was able to take good care of this poor stressed baby until our friends family was able to pick her up. She sent updates including showing how she had relaxed under Lori's care. Candy clearly relaxed and thrived with Lori. I would definitely book with her again!

Doggy Day Care • May 23, 2026

Lamb Chop gave kisses and wags of approval, and was tired but not overly so for his elderly joints. He was able to rest and relax while mommy and daddy were, too. Lori was prompt and communicated clearly, remembered everything, and Lamby was clearly well looked after. He’s got a lot of allergy and skin related needs, so it’s always nice to find someone who’s conscious of what care that entails - no pun intended!

This was our first time leaving our fur baby. Lori was so nice and sent us pictures and updates our whole trip. Oli seemed so happy when we picked her up. Will definitely use her again for future trips.

House Sitting • Apr 20, 2026

I booked Lori for 50 hours of house sitting, including a puppy rate, but she treated my home like a brief drop-in service. Out of the 32 active daytime hours she was supposed to be present, she was here for less than 10. My puppy was left crated and alone far beyond the requested limits, leading to my first-ever instance of property damage: a large, hole in my entryway wall. Lori was so checked out that she didn’t even notice the damage had occurred. This was a complete failure of service. I paid for a house sitter to provide companionship and care, but my dogs were neglected and my house was damaged under her "supervision." Do not hire her if you expect your instructions followed or your pets safety prioritized.
