Dog Sleepovers with Snuggles!

I love dogs—they’ve always been part of my family! I worked in the pet industry for more than a decade, managing Community and writing for the world's leading website for dogs (and cats). I’ve also fostered, adopted, and volunteered with Bay Area animal welfare organizations, bringing that experience and care to every dog I host. My beloved rescue Hank spent years joyfully welcoming Rover pups into our home. I continue that tradition of love and care, making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and part of the family. I’m available to board dogs seven days a week. I have a big, securely fenced backyard and live right next to Golden Gate Park—perfect for walks and adventures. Dogs can sleep wherever they’re comfortable—I love snugglers! I’m experienced with medications, special needs, and senior dogs, and provide a calm, loving environment where every pup feels like part of the family.

Lori took wonderful care of Bailey! She made her feel comfortable, gave her lots of attention, and even took her on a fun adventure. Bailey was happy and well cared for - highly recommend!

I know Pinot is in loving hands when he is with Lori. She is great with senior dogs and had no problem taking care of his wounded paw on this visit. I know he's looking forward to his next visit!

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and part of the family. They can sleep wherever they like, enjoy supervised play in my big, securely fenced backyard, and go on walks or adventures in nearby Golden Gate Park. I’m experienced with administering medications and caring for special needs or senior dogs, and I focus on building trust so every dog feels secure and happy.

A typical day

Your dog will enjoy playtime in the backyard, walks and exploring Golden Gate Park, and plenty of snuggles and attention throughout the day. I also include games, mental enrichment, and gentle socialization so every pup has a fun, stimulating, and loving experience while in my care.
