You pup will barely miss you!

Pet care experience

Please only consider me if you have an older mature, calm dog(s) only. I am a life-long dog owner, who fosters and volunteers for local rescues. My dogs are my family and I will treat yours the same! I have a nice neighborhood for taking walks and a LARGE yard with 6-FOOT PRIVACY FENCE to play in. What sets me apart: I am aware that not all dogs want to make new dog friends all the time, and I have a great set-up to keep dogs separated if needed, both in the house and the yard. I also am able to cater to pups who may not be as mobile as others or as they used to be, by offering ramps to get inside and outside. I look forward to taking care of your babies and their individual needs!

So excited to find Lori. Lori did such a great job taking care of our Rigby. We received pictured updates throughout his stay which helped so much as this was our first time using a sitter for him. I would recommened her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She truly has such a love for dogs and does a great job taking care of them.

Lori did a great job! She made Bruno feel right at home where he didn't have to be in a kennel. We would highly recommend her.

Lori treated Jax like her own. She sent pictures of him during the entirety of his stay and took him on multiple walks. I’d 100 percent recommend her to anyone!

Information Lori P. would like to know about your pet

It's helpful to know their feeding schedule, if they are used to sleeping in bed with a person or on their own, and how they are when left alone.

A typical day

My set-up is ideal for dogs with low to medium energy. If your pup is higher energy, he/she will probably be happier with another caretaker. I love helping dogs stay out of cages (boarding, kennels, shelters, whatever) and am happy to dedicate my time and love to your pets while they are with me!
