Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 and raised a puppy who lived to 15 years which then included taking care of a senior dog who was deaf and wore a doggie diaper at night or when visiting other's homes. I am good with all kinds of animals and am sensitive to their needs and respectful of each of their unique personalities. I am very intuitive and have worked well with children with special needs at our local school for many years as well as most recently had provided in-home care and hospice for my mom who became nonverbal for several years. I have patience and skill at caregiving for people and animals and have a teaching degree in early child care and development. Providing care for others has been my life's work. Animals are my favorite, so I am super excited to put my focus on caring for them now on a flexible basis!
Reviews
Lori cared for our dogs like they were her own. She met their individual needs and pampered both of them. We had a cancelled flight and had to extend our trip by a day and Lori was so understanding. The pictures and updates Lori sent showed our dogs were having as much fun as we were on our vacation! I will definitely book with Lori again.
Charlie's stay was perfect ! couldn't have asked for more .. Lots of pictures Charlie came home happy , tired and well cared for .
Extra fun play time!! Thank you!
Lori was so awesome caring for my two little dogs in her home for a few days. She gave them so much attention and love, and sent me tons of photos. My dogs were literally smiling in the photos they were so happy! Lori has a fabulous fenced yard and also lives by a park where she can walk dogs. She truly loves dogs and provides wonderful care. I feel so lucky to have found Lori on Rover.

We are used to having a dog in our home and adjusting to their needs. I have time to give lots of TLC. We have a park across from our house that is great for taking walks, and I used to take our dog biking in a bike trailer if that is something your dog would enjoy. I also brought my dog for car rides, and we would explore other parks together. My dog didn't really like walking very much, so I am used to carrying dogs on walks as well if it makes them happier (and they are small enough.) There were times our senior dog needed to go outside at night, so I am used to waking up in the middle of the night as well if that is needed. I enjoy being home and was a stay-at-home mom, so being a pet sitter fits in great with my lifestyle. Also, I love photography and will take photos of their day to assure you things are going well and they are having a good time. :)

Availability
I am available 24/7 to help you! I no longer work outside the home and miss my 15-year-old dog who passed a year ago. I am looking forward to spending time with dogs (or cats) again now and helping clients with their pets.
